Cotto was at his best at light welter until he struggled to make weight and then got knocked down. Cotto did struggle with big welters so Thurman/Brooks would cause issues.
Just shows you how good Cotto was to win a title at light middle.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

What about Prime Cotto v Crawford at 140lb? Now that would be good.

Oh yeah... excellent fight. Crawford's a terrific tactician and counterpuncher, but then so was Cotto in his prime.

Re: How would a Prime Cotto and Margarito do vs todays Elite Welterweights
In my opinion is impossible to come to a conclusion other than both Margarito and Cotto would be competitive against the top welters of today. Success in the sport of boxing at the highest level is mostly tied to the conditioning of the fighter. Conditioning happens at the training camp prior to the fight, so this leads me to agreeing with the good ol saying that you're only as good as your last fight. But, both Margarito and Cotto are good fighters to bet on though, depending on the stylistic matchup. I still think both at their prime would lose to Pac (and Floyd) even this version of Pac (38 years old) today.

Re: How would a Prime Cotto and Margarito do vs todays Elite Welterweights
there are two threads around at the minute that really get my goat
the price or molina thread and this one
on the other thread people argue Teper would have definitely beaten price, peds or no peds despite his failure being one of the worse in history, and on this thread someone mentions margarito and everyone is in full agreement that he'd have been shit if it wasn't for the loaded gloves

Only if necessary, and at a strategic time.
