Kostya Tsyzu versus Miguel Cotto

[goose 5]

How does this jr. welterweight showdown pan out ?

[Woldemar]

Prime Tszyu would stop green Cotto in 10.

Yeah this could've only ever happend at 140, and Cotto wasn't the fighter he would later go on to be at any point during his 140 run. I don't know that he was ever quite ready for a Kostya Tszyu.

MAYBE if they'd fought in 2004, but I'd still have to favor Tszyu. Probably by late KO. Cotto would've given him a tough time of it for a bit, but ultimately I don't think he was well rounded enough yet to deal with Tszyu.

Cotto hadn't hit his stride at 140 and even at his best I feel he wasn't on the level of Kostya Tszyu. Tszyu would break him down and take him out at 140.
