    I actually think this makes Floyd want to fight Cotto a bit more and I think the fight gets made after Margarito.

    Maybe but you have to take into account the good possibility of Floyd having a trilogy with ODLH/rematching Hatton. Hopefully that doesn't happen.

    That was easy pickings for Cotto. I loved that look he gave Gomez after round 1, because he never does that, but I think that was his way of letting Gomez know that he has him. Classic!

    I give credit to Gomez for stepping into the ring with him, but Gomez also needed to be humbled, and Cotto did it with ease!!!

    I'm going to have to add him to the Miguel Cotto Art Gallery.
    Uuccmmm

    Diane, don't want this to come across as egotistical or in a bad way but long before you and Danny arrived I've been preaching the Cotto Gospel.
    Wish you could have witnessed the things that were said about Cotto then you would be on the floor laughing.

    From him being one dimensional, to him not ever accomplishing much, that he would have no room to improve because of the talent that was around at 140 and up... and yadda! yadda! yadda!

    I love and gloath on the fact that the way older people talk about how they saw Ali through his career, SRL, Hagler, Duran etc. etc. I can now boost and say I've got my own set of fighters I've followed from the start and or early in their careers.

    Cottos my generations Duran, my generations Gomez, my generations Napoles.
    Well don't think that I am just a recent fan of Cotto's, just because I'm new here, because I have been following him for a long time myself.

    Actually, just ask Danny who turned him onto Cotto.
    Oh! certainly, I'd imagine prior to your arrival here you knew who he was.
    Welcome aboard the Cotto Express Diane stretch your feet out and enoy the room here. El Gamo is also a Cotto fan but like me he is also a Margarito fan.
    Diane, I can't stop reading over and over peoples lines about Gomez surprising Cotto and Gomez wining rounds and Gomez taking Cotto to the distance or late rounds. There is NO single doubt in my mind that Cotto could have gotten Gomez out in 1 round but Cotto let off and took his time. He was cautious and took his time. The bad part about this is that now 2 of my favorite fighters might fight eachother next. Late 2006 when the fight was mentioned by Arum in the post fight interview on the double header they had where Cotto fought Carlos and Tony fough Clottey I was made by El Gamo to choose a side and I went with Cotto he and I have been set up to bet if the fight comes through. As I've said before Cottos more skilled then Margarito and hes a better boxer he can trade and he can box and I expect that to the difference. El Gamo feels that Margaritos pressure style with lots of punches will be the key to victory. You a Margarito fan? I know Danny is.

    Yes, I like Margarito, but not as much as Cotto. Cotto has been my favorite for quite some time now. I've made a lot of my friends at work big fans of Cotto's as well, I've told them for years, to watch him, and that he is only going to get better and better, and sure enough all my friends keep telling me how right I was, and they just love him now.

    Like you, I think this will be a great fight, but it's also a fight that I kind of hate to see happen, because I do like both of them, and I would hate for one of them to lose.

    But like you, I am on the Cotto Express, and with Tony's iron chin, Cotto is really going to have to work the body, and stick that left jab. Cotto's confidence is so strong now, and if he plays the role of being more the boxer than the brawler, like he did against Mosley & Gomez, then I feel he will definitely win it on points. I think this one goes the distance.
