When will the war catch up with Cotto?

He clearly takes rounds off. He needs to seriously consider getting elite trainers for his fight against Pac - if it happens.

I say he trys to get Ronnie Shields and Mackie Shilstone to work with him. This will help take him up a level.

The war has caught up with Cotto but he can adopt veteran style techniques that will allow him to win a few more big money fights. He definitely has the will.

Going for an elite trainer for his fight against PAC might help but don't rely too much about it... Remember Hatton having the "best trainer" in the world for his PAC fight in the person of Floyd Sr., did it help? It even contributed to Hatton's downfall on the canvass...

I don't think the fight with Clottey was a good one to gauge a question of Cotto's ring mileage on. He definitely took on some mileage during the fight, but I believe the effects of the nasty cut preclude an accurate assessment of his current skills.
