I am not calling you out specifically, but the more articles I read the more I hear people (including Pac Man's) talking about Manny meeting Mayweather next year. It's almost (almost) like they are already looking past the soon to be Cotto fight. If Cotto beats Pac Man, then Cotto deserves a shot at Floyd. That should be the fight that is made next year. This is a fight that should have been made long ago.
nobody is going to lose sleep if Floyd has to face Cotto though, its still a really good fight. IMO Marquez's style works against a pure boxer who is bigger than him like Mayweather, but I can't see his style being effective against Cotto, he doesn't have the mentality to not get hit, and there is no way Marquez could go to war with Cotto. I think Manny has the speed and uses it effectively enough to handle Cotto, but thats just my opinion, I think Cotto is still very dangerous for him. I also think Mayweather brings more to the table against both Pacquiao and Cotto, not that he will do better than Marquez against them(though I think he will), but because he's a much bigger star than Marquez, and neither Manny or Miguel have faced him before.
