Marquez would fuck Cotto up @ catchweight

[FinitoElDinamita]

IF you disagree, tell me why..

[El Kabong]

Because Cotto has power, can box very well, and has a trainer who has gone against JMM a number of times. plus the only catchweight they could fight at would have to be like 150 and there's no way JMM handles that well.

[Beanflicker]

I'd probably take JMM to win a compeditive decision. I don't think it would be a one sided ass whipping.

[El Kabong]

I think Cotto would wallop JMM. The jab Cotto has, the solid defense, the power....JMM is durable and is an all time great but there's only so much the man can do. The style matchup is all wrong.

He's also a lot slower of hand and thought than JMM is.

And before the Delvin Rodriguez fight, people were calling for Cotto to retire because he was washed up. I don't know why a win of Delvin Rodriguez, who isn't that great, would change this sentiment.

[El Kabong]

Yes but Delvin Rodriguez is a legitimate Junior Middleweight. JMM is still more of a Junior Welterweight than a Welterweight....Cotto would batter him. Cotto would NEVER have been beaten by Tim Bradley

[walrus]

I am a fan of Cotto but I agree with you on this one. It would be a good fight to see, I also don't think it would be a shutout but I believe JMM would prevail.

[Galaxy]

Depending on the weight, but at this stage anywhere over 150 & I'd back Cotto.

I don't know why losses to Mayweather and Trout would bring it along....no one is calling for Alvarez to retire and IMO he's lost to both of them as well...

Isn't it amazing how one fight changes everything? Before the Rodriguez fight, all anyone could talk about was how much punishment Cotto has taken over his career, how he was all done and how he should retire to preserve his health.

Now: retirement talk? What retirement talk?

lol

[p4pking]

I've thought this would be an epic fight for several years now, and don't see it as either guy being "all wrong" for the other, it would be a war imo. Cotto wouldn't stay on his bicycle and fight like Bradley did, but he would need to use his jab very well and be smart. I could see him getting countered trying to dig the body, but I'm also not sure how Marquez would handle that giving up a good bit of size. Would love to see it.

Pacman had cotto running away and cowering like a frightened stooge.. marquez would teach him a boxing lesson and punish him.

lol so because jmm finally beat pac and pac beat cotto, u say that cotto loses? Am I correct?
cotto is too big for jmm, and he would punish juan with body shots. I say cotto in a split.

Mayweather didn't knock Marquez the fuck out after the 3rd due to ring rust and pure mercy, going on to win every round, Cotto gave Mayweather one of his toughest fights to date, a hell of a lot tougher of a fight than Alvarez did, Cotto would wear him down and spank Marquez

yea the ones talking about him retiring were the same people who are saying that Marquez would beat him now, Cotto lost to the best p4p fighter in the world, and one of the top 5 guys at 154 who arguably should have a W against Canelo himself in Trout, don't see how that ever equals being done
