First of all one thing, I said for 3 years on here that Judah was overhyped rubbsih and that has been shown to be true the guy is rubbish so take that fight away from Cotto. Ricardo Torres and DeMarcus Corley buzzed him, how highly do you rate Cotto? How many more gears can he shift to?

He has the potential to be an ATG in my opinion.

He may be a little bit vulnerable but I really liked the way he reacted when hurt v Judah - this showed me that he is still learning.

At the very least, he's a very good fighter.

We shall see.

cotto: Already very good at this stage and with his youth I think he has the chance to learn a lot more of things and be a better fighter overall. Skies the limit for him.

Cotto has the potential+time to surpass all the men on the top 10 p4p list but he must continue to improve. He can become an ATG even with a couple losses because of his marketbility and entertaining fights.

they brought up cotto excellently, bob arums knew what he was doing, if it was any other promoter he would have put cotto in with someone like mayweather or margarito early in his career and ruined him.

The only thing that has made me think he will fail when it comes to the really High profile fights is the way he behaves when his chin is checked by a solid shot......... He has a while to go yet.....

On par with Hatton as he has moved up a weight division and has won a championship and was able to estabalish himself better. However, Hatton, albeit at a latter stage of their carreers, took out two big name opponents and was the lineal champ at 140. They were both great wins. The Zoo win, really wasn't that impressive, but the Castillo win definitely sold me.

Both are below Mayweather as the Pretty Boy has shot up from Super Feather to Jnr. Middle, and captured the WBC belt in each division. Sure, he didn't beat the best of the division in some of the divisions that he rode through, but his goal was set to be a champ at 5 weight classes before 30. That's a huge accomplishment.

Anyhow, these 3 are kind of like modern day versions of Duran, Leonard, Hearns of the 80's. If these 3 can get it on, then boxing can be as big as it's ever been.

Hatton and Shane Mosley

Winky Wright would own him but i think its unfair given that Winky has been at 160 and above for the past few years to include him

he ko's hatton at 147, and hatton would maul him, and possibly stop him late at 140.

floyd would score on him all night, very easily like a cheap hooker, scoring a comfy ud.
