Poll:Who should Cotto fight next and why?

[amat]

Loving the post here Fire CC in 24.

I pretty much agree. Cotto has a huge fanfare right now with all the New Yorkers and Puerto Ricans at his back, and Floyd has never faced that big Puerto Rican fighter before and he's talked about a bunch how much he wants to face Tito. So why not Cotto? I think the fight will be HUGE, and I think it's made in 2008. If not, Cotto - Berto 09. Berto has already been featured in a Playboy interview and has been in GQ a couple times now, I see him being a guy who could really be a Mayweather type star with a more crowd pleasing style.

As for his immediate next fight, has to be the winner of Margarito - Williams. The welterweight division is so fast moving, he has got to fight the winner of those two or risk being left out of the big fight picture like Mosley is in danger of.

Great call LG on Clottey, that never crossed my mind, what a bout that would be.

i'm sorry spell-check changed the first word in my post from cotto to athelets.... so i meant to say Cotto is building a legacy of being a quiet warrior

Yeah the spell checker does some weird things now and again.

margarito because he would be one hell of a fight. hatton or castillo would be cool also.

[Sugar_Shaw]

His people should go for Margarito next, while Mosley fights Mayweather. I would like to see Hatton-Cotto but Hatton is a 140 lber i can't see him moving up to welter again.

Hatton , because we been waiting for this for years, and we do not know who is best yet! It could start gearing up as the best at LWelter agsinst the best at Welter with a bit of imagination...

I chose Margarito, though it really should be winner of Margarito - Williams, as has been said many times before, this is FAR from an easy W for Margo.

Mallignaggi (Spelling?) and Torres would be a step back. Cotto should only move forward to bigger and brighter things from now on.

Though the winner of Hatton - Castillo is not a step back, it is not excactly a step forward eather. Hatton needs to win this fight convincingly and than prove that he can handly 147 before taking a fight with Cotto. Cotto shouldn't even think about moving back to 140, it would just be playing into Hatton's hands.

Mosley should be added to this list. And if he was in it, I would've picked Mosley. What a statement that would make if Cotto beat him. This would be a real thriller and candidate for fight of the decade if you asked me.

Cotto should, and most probably will, fight the winner of Margarito: Williams.

I wouldnt mind the winner of that against Mosley, in might may very well be the last fight for "sugar" Shane...

[Daim]

Obviously if Margarito wins they already have to face each other, and IMO is going to be a hell of a fight, even better than the one against Zab, but I would love to see how Cotto can handle Sugar Shane.

[Addicted to_boxing]

I would rather see the winner of Hatton and Castillo. I personally like this better if it was Hatton. But I would love to see Mayweather as well.

Place this thread on Ice until after July 15th. Less yo-yo speculating ....
