Excellent interview by Raymond, very funny and original... Cotto looks in good shape, same with Tito. Quality time between two PRican boxing legends. Tito will always be the most beloved but IMHO Cotto is the better PRican fighter of all time (and yes, over Gomez, Benitez, etc). Past fighters get put on a pedestal for some reason but when you sit down and watch their fights, you notice that the talent gap isn't really existent as as some make it ought to be.

Originally posted by IMDAZED View PostFunny, I was just thinking about that this morning. I don't think you can put Cotto ahead of Trinidad. I know Cotto really started out one division below Tito and won a MW title but I don't think he would've dared faced the Bernard Hopkins Trinidad faced. And I'd favor the version of Joppy that Trinidad KO'ed over the version of Martinez that Cotto fought. Trinidad has bigger wins and not anywhere near the amount of losses -- never came close to being KO'ed by anyone other than Hopkins. I think you have to lean toward Tito at the moment.
Cotto, Ivan Calderon and Tito are about the same level in terms of greatness, tito being the more epic because of his charisma

He won several amateur tournaments including a gold medal in the 1974 world championship in Cuba, in which he won all fights by KO including beating the world champ which was a Cuban in Cuba. The you had his 17 straight KO title defenses and 3 division titles and is a no brainer.
