I'm a hard core Cotto fan and also think Trouts timing for this fight is perfect.
I sort of agree, and it's possible that Cotto has lost a step or 2 after all the wars he been in. The thing is, how good is Trout? And how will he do against a world class opponent like Cotto, who's been there done that already. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
