    The pole can throw ya,no option For Margarito LOl
    How was Ricardo Mayorga not ranked, he was a reigning world champ?

    And Oscar went closer to beating the worlds best fighter than arguably anybody else and he's beaten Steve Forbes since so how is he not qualified to fight Cotto?

    With Floyd gone what better fight is there for Cotto than the Golden Boy. He'll have already beaten Mosely and Margarito, there is only Paul Williams left and Cotto would make at least double, maybe three times as much against Oscar AND get far more exposure than for all his previous fights combined.

    If Cotto fought and beat Oscar that would do more for his career and to build his profile than everything he's done up to this point.

    It would doubtless lead to a clamour of fanfare wanting to see Floyd come out of retirement to fight the guy that beat Mosely, Margarito AND Oscar and we'd have a genuine megafight on our hands.

    And you can't tell me a fight between Cotto and Oscar won't be competitive because Oscar is always competitive with every man he's ever faced. Him and Cotto would be a great fight, and most definitely he's the opponent I most want Cotto to face after Margarito.
    aww Bilb's I have no doubt what so ever that they would generate the #'s but what Do I care If I don't want to see It.You see,Ive had my fill of a DelaHoya.Will attest to his ability,accomplishments and status but frankly Its time the ol' boy just move on and let the current top threats fight.He will make an outstanding promoter but the combination is tired...

    Forbes displayed top notch under the radar skill & respect coming up as lightweight but vs. Delahoya he was a set up fight for future endevors .....thats it!

    Mayorga was the perfect foil after Tito thrashed him soundly....cheer's

    Ive said it many times,Mayweather may be the ultimate task-master with Delahoya.....all this talk of Cotto/Oscar and honestley in a perfect world it will happen.I will say that Mayweather will come bouncing out of "retire-ment" pending the outcome to break the gate..

    Of course Margarito will have quite abit of input on the pre-determined outcome...

    Not as much as him or his fans would like you to believe. Cotto is gonna slaughter him.

    Cotto will most likely beat Margarito. And then if Oscar really wants to go out with a bang I would be most delighted to see Cotto take him apart bit by bit. Oscar just annoys me. He always seems like such a phoney.

    Cotto will out box Marg and if ODH is crazy enough to fight him at Welter then he will get beat in almost as embarrassing fashion as Gomez was.
