I have a feeling everyone is a little too anxious for this fight to happen for all the wrong reasons. Miguel Cotto is not ready for Floyd quite yet. Miguel has improved greatly over the years, he has improved greatly since even fighting Paul Malinaggi. He just has not improved enough.
There needs a lot of work on his defense before this fight is even though of. Shane Mosley is fast but Shane is past his best. A lot of people are using the fact Cotto beat Mosley as a measuring stick on how he would deal with Floyd's speed, except it is not just the speed that is a factor. Pinpoint accuracy is one of the biggest weapons in Weather's arsenal.
I would put Miguel as the best welterweight in the division right now behind Floyd Mayweather just not in Floyds league quite yet. I am a big supporter of Cotto and I would hate to see him have a setback before he is ready
