Not a knock on Floyd, but I can't see anyone beating Cotto at Welter.
That is an interesting thing you say. U dont think any of PBF, Williams, Margarito, could beat Cotto. I personally think Floyd would b too skilled and smart, and Williams could maybe b too tall and work too hard for Cotto.
How come u dont think he could b beat?
He just has so many different skills. While Williams is tall, he'd get sucked in. He likes to stay busy and make a point of throwing more punches. I think Cotto would be allowed space to get in close and I think the body shots would take their toll. I'd see that fihgt going similar to Diaz-Diaz were the smaller man would be able to walk through the onslaught to land the more telling blows.

As for Floyd, Cotto is just too strong. Cotto also has good speed, as demonstrated in the Mosley fight.

The thing I like most about Cotto is that he has many different tools in which to beat you. Power in the left to the body, the ability to switch stance effectively, an awesome jab, good movement, great stamina and he just keeps coming. I'm a massive Hatton fan, but at Welter I'd never put him in with Cotto because I think his skills would be bettered.

I've been saying it for a while now, but he'll be P4P #1 someday in the not too distant future.
Fair enough. Still think your going too far saying Cotto is unbeatable. But u have your reasons.
Fair play. It's just opinion though. I'm yet to be proved wrong on Cotto. I've said for years now I think he'd be exceptional. However, my above comments can only be proved right when Cotto gets his fights. We'll see.
