Maybe Cotto was focused on defending his WBO title and wanted to establish himself a little more first. Like you said he wasnt ready for Kostya then. Still would have liked to see him vs. Hatton befor he moved to Welter.

Re: quick question regarding tsyzu
Cotto at 140 would of been stopped by Tszyu at that point in there careers, like you said Cotto was too green at that point plus his punch resistance wasn't as good at 140. But Cotto might of lost to Tszyu at any point in his career, the people who gave Tszyu problems were swarmer's like Phillips, Hatton. Even though Cotto has an aggressive style he isn't swarmer like those fighters, he picks his shots more from mid distance. Now this would give Tszyu a chance to land his best shots, because Tszyu does his best work at mid range. Thats why he lost against Phillips, Hatton, because those guys never give Tszyu room to punch.
