Cotto can box Mayorga can't, Cotto can set up his punches Mayorga can't....this fight would end in a worse beating for Mayorga than he took vs Oscar.
As for who challenges Cotto at 154: Alvarez, maybe Cintron, maybe Vanes....but deffo not Angulo.

Mayorga can take a shot, Cotto takes a knee
Mayorga may just be the strongest fighter that Cotto will have ever faced and for once it will be Mayorga who is fresh off a relatively impressive KO and his opponent who has been out for over 9 months!
Mayorga will hit Cottos little chin harder than Pacquiao or Margarito did.
Cotto is not interested in fighting any more, he would see this as an easy pay day that sells itself, whereas Mayorga sees Cotto as a little wimp stepping stone on his way to millions against Pacquia
Im confident for Mayorga in this fight just because he has actually got some decent rounds in just before the fight. He wont have chance to get rusty or out of shape, he can only be better than he was in his last fight! I very much doubt that Cottos promoter would be very confident of pitting him against any middle weight, whereas Mayorga has just wobbled dropped and KO,d a fighter more impressively than Andy Lee a big up and coming Steward fighter could manage.
Feel free to see it that way but Cotto dominated Shane Mosley and unlike Mayorga he was able to last the distance. Ricardo won't even make weight and even if he does he's going to eat too many shots to last with Cotto.
As long as Mayorga doesn't load his gloves Cotto will take him. Its not like Ricardo has the handspeed of Pacquiao either.
Mayorga-Margarito should be made as they are both done as top tier fighters

Does Mayorga still smoke 60 cancer sticks a day?

The minute this fight gets a little bit hard, Mayorga will seek the easiest way out possible. I'll give him 5 rounds before he starts to look in big trouble.
If that doesn't happen, Cotto needs to knock the sport on the head.

Utter bollocks. Cotto/Mosley was quite a close fight in the end. Cotto spent the final rounds on the run. Again, this symbolises that Cotto has stamina issues and that a stronger fighter gets to him. Mosley fought the wrong fight early in that fight and should have been trying to rough Cotto up.
Wait...WHAT ?!
Lyle, you and I both know that Cotto won a razor-thin decision against Mosley that could have gone either way.
Cotto is no doubt the superior boxer to Mayorga but Cotto has holes in his defense and has been on the receiving end of two brutal beatings recently.
Its anyones fight.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

Not sure this is a needed or a smart fight for a warrior like Cotto who has taken alot of damage and might....might have one or two biggies left in him. They aint all pitching nerf balls like Foreman and Ricardo is a nasty,huge physical free swinger...with shoulders and fists. Mayorga is a re-establish type guy frankly and Cotto should bide his limited time for bigger name last hoorah clashes.
