    Leonard would beat Cotto and Ginger on the same night.

    Trolling? Probably more like building Cotto up to SRL, Duran, Benitez level in case Floyd decided to fight him in 07-08....

    Leonard by stoppage is the obvious pick even though his punching power gets overrated often

    word.

    Every year since he retired his punching power has increased by a single factor. By 2020 he'll have Hearns power.

    Dude, honestly. That's not even worth me making the effort to give a proper response.

    There's a 60% chance Leonard wins by stoppage (make that 70% if its a 15 rounder) and basically a 0% chance Cotto wins by any means.

    Cotto's chances of lasting the distance in a 15 rounder are slim.

    We're talking about a guy in Cotto with NOT ONLY a mediocre chin, but notoriously suspect stamina. Whereas Leonard had non-stop stamina, and was one of the best finishers of all time.

    Realistically, Leonard would stop Cotto in about 8-10 rounds.

    Yeah i'd agree with that. I just wanted to talk up Cotto's chance of surviving so Sly wouldn't shout at me.

    I'd be very surprised if Cotto saw the ninth round. His stamina is a significant flaw and he is so easy to hit. I like Cotto but as someone said in 2007 - he's a very good fighter, not a great one.

    Good thread, though. Always amusing to re-REED the harp-playing, squeaky, cuddle-loving faggot acting the tough guy.

    is this the slystaff that played tennis?

    anyhow...SRL would dominate Cotto. Speed, movement, boxing ability, defense...he also has enough power to hurt Cotto which is a death sentence when you already have all of those other advantages I just mentioned...I think he stops him late after a lot of punishment
