The POLL: Who should Cotto fight next?

[CFH]

I actually see a clear line to unification in the welterweight division.

With Williams moving up and Margarito banned there are four big guns in the division, (I'm exluding Floyd because he doesnt want anything of the welterweight scene)

Miguel Cotto
Shane Mosely
Andre Berto
Kermit Cintron

Let Cotto fight Cintron and Mosely fight Berto, the two winners fight for all the marbles.

Clottey can hopefully get back in on the action too against one of semi final losers.

I really think Cintron would starch Cotto. Cotto's the better fighter, but Cintron is a terrible match-up for him IMO.

Would you vote for Cintron then? Or you like other better match-up for Cotto? I haven't seen your vote yet...

I would not vote for Cintron. If I had to choose I would pick either a rematch with Mosley or Pacquiao at 147. Those are the fights which most interest me.

As for Margarito, I think he'd have a great chance of beating Cotto again, but I really don't think Cotto wants to fight him because of the plaster scandal. He seems genuinely pissed off about it and his comments prior to the Clottey fight implied that he think a) Margarito knew exactly what was being put in his wraps, and b) that he did the same thing in their fight.

PAC at 147 was not in the poll options... but you can vote for it lumped in the "Others" option... Still I haven't seen yet your very important vote...

[The_Infinite]

Can't you add an option for Pacquiao at 147? I think there's at least 2 or 3 who posted here that they want a Pac-Cotto fight at 147.

I voted for a Clottey rematch. I really think Clottey will have learned from his mistakes from the first bout and not get too lazy/confident in a rematch. He has the tools to beat Cotto. Also, if Cotto wins convincingly in the rematch, it would erase some question marks from his last performance.

Sorry but I can't do it... I have no MOD powers... But I won't do it really since I intentionally left it out from the poll choices...

Why? Because Pac has a good chance of losing at 147?? What a fag.

Same opinion here: Shane is #1, Cotto is #2 so fight for the supremacy and the champion title of the ww division.
Another reason to fight Mosley is that the first fight was very close.
But as a boxing fan I‘d love to see him in with Pac. I also prefer to see it happened at 147 but if they decide to fight at catchweight I will respect that and I will not criticize them.

[hardcore_crash]

Cotto needs to fight either Mosley or Margarito IMO.
It will let us see if he still the Miguel that people were talking about constantly.
I do not want him to fight Pac, especially at 143.

[XaduBoxer]

Hmmnnn.... So far Mosley leading with Margcheat in 2nd...

143 is too much of a drain for cotto. he did say he's willing to go down to 145 while pac wants it at 144. i think if this fight is going to happen it might be at 144.5.

i also would like to see a pac-cotto at no catchweight where manny would be at a big disadvantage sizewise but could offset it with speed and movement. i voted mosley-cotto rematch though.

[ono]

I voted Berto. Just think it would be a fun match up.

I'd love to see Collazo get a shot again. Feel sorry for the guy.

Unlucky against Hatton, Was hvaing success against Shane until he fractured his hand (2nd round).

Unlucky against Berto

He could cause problems for somebody like Cotto imo. I think Cotto would take him but i see Collazo landing a fair few.

I like Collazo too. I definately think he's a quality operator and will give anyone problems at WW. He can box and he can trade. I think if his power was better he would definately be one of the top welters.......

I voted for Mosley again. It was close and i think it would be a good fight, plus, Mosley is the man at WW, which people seem to be forgetting. Mosley sits at the back too quiet, he should be letting people now that he's the man.

Cotto only to fight pac at 147 IMO, catchweight stinks the hell out of boxing....

[HattonTheHammer]

Miguel Cotto-Ricky Hatton makes sense for so many reasons

before margarito/jennings/clottey i genuinely believed cotto was the 2nd best fighter in the world.

But if cheato can knock him out and a one dimensional less heavy handed joshua clottey can give him the nightmares he gave him i see no reason why hatton wouldnt be able to take him late on.

Both fighters would HAVE to win, for the loser it would be game over!!

Mayweather-Marquez
Pacquiao-Mosley
Cotto-Hatton

before the years out..............PLEASE
