Anyway I believe Floyd's next fight will be against Miguel Cotto in the spring.

I know most seem to think Cotto is practically a gimme for Manny Pacquaio but I honestly believe he will batter the living shit out of him and finish him inside the distance.

For me Cotto wins inside 8 maybe inside 4 if he lands early.

I think Miguel will look awesome and then everyone will be chomping at the bit for a Cotto Mayweather fight.

So let me get this straight Bilbo.... you say Cotto beats Pacquiao inside 4 rounds and im the moron...... riiiiight! Tell me oh ignorant one of the shire, whens the last time you even saw Pacquiao knocked down? What your doing is called wishful thinking. It will be competitive, but to say Cotto stops Pacquiao in 4 rounds is the most ubsurd thing ive ever heard. Cotto is great but he didn't even stop jennings in 4 rounds and you expect him to KO the greatest fighter in the world under 4. At least my mistake was an honest one, you just lack common sense or a brain for that matter!
I didn't say Cotto beats Manny inside 4 rounds, I said he MIGHT if he lands early. He blew Quintana away in quick time, he battered the shit out of Alfonso Gomez.

Cotto has been fighting far far better competition in an absolute sense than Manny has. You stick David Diaz, Ricky Hatton and a 147 lb Oscar in with Antonio Margarito, Joshua Clottey and Shane Mosely and they are all getting mashed up.

Manny went life and death with Marquez twice, most people thinking Marquez won those fights and Marqeuz didn't win a single round against Floyd, he was embarrassed as much as Jeff Lacy was against Calzaghe.

Cotto is a HUGE step up from a past it, and never that great Ricky Hatton, and a completely weight drained and shot Oscar.

Manny is in for the fight of his life.

I'd love to see Manny do it, he's a superstar and a fantastic fighter, but Cotto is a great fighter in his own right, and will imo be too big and too strong for Manny.

Yes Manny has speed, but Cotto isn't slow, he went in and beat Shane Mosely after all, and speed aside Manny is outgunned in every other attribute.

I think a lot of people will make some smart money on Cotto ending Manny inside the distance.

Cotto is aggressive, and if he hurts Manny he won't let him off the hook.

In 2010 Cotto vs Mayweather will be THE fight the fans want.
