Other than Pac and May who in this era has accomplished more than Cotto in the 140/147 weightclasses?

You can make an argument for 1 or 2 other guys like JMM and Mosley but the fact that its hard to count with one hand how many guys are more acccomplished in itself saids a lot.

The guy wasnt necessarily a fan fav in terms of his charisma like Tito but give the man his just do and acknowledge that he is a first ballot hall of famer.

Nothing to dislike about Junito - class act, took on all comers and always gave a great show.

nobody "hates" him, hes just overrated as fuck by his stupid fans.

Maybe because of threads like this. Or two or three of his nuthuggers.

I must have seen several threads with this exact topic and it always goes the same way.:

"Why is Cotto getting hate?"

"Uhhh, he's not. He's generally liked by the boxing fans."

This is boxing, man. Every fighter is going to have haters and I'd say among all the big names, Cotto has the least amount of haters.


Pointless thread that's been done many times before.

truth is there is too much hate on these forums.... whether we're talking floyd, manny, or miguel... stop the hating... post with facts.... truth is those 3 STARS carried the sport for the last decade, and without them the boxing scene wouldnt have a pulse.

Why so much hate?

We have ridiculous posters on here saying that Sergio Martinez has accomplished more in his career than Miguel Cotto...

Lets debunk this myth right now

Sergio Martinez (50-2-2 28KOs)

Record in title fights- 6-0 4KOs

World Champions faced- 6

Turned Pro in 97'


Miguel Angel Cotto (37-4-0 30KOs)

Record in title fights- 17-4 14KOs

World champions faced- 17

Turned Pro in 01'


Truth is Martinez hasnt accomplished a fourth of what Cotto has in his career

Let's take it a step further .... how about Marquez?

Juan Manuel Marquez (54-6-1 39KOs)

Record in title fights 10-4-1 4KOs

World champions faced- 14

how does he stack up against Mayweather and Pacquiao? Quite well actually...

Manny Pacquiao (54-4-2 38KOs)

Record in title fights- 16-2-2 11KOs

World champs faced - 17

Floyd Mayweather (43-0 26KOs)

record in title fights- 19-0 9 KOs

World champs faced- 17

surely Cottos best is behind him, but....
for those who say Cotto was never elite.... well then what was he?

Besides Mrs Fantastic, El boss Smogg, and a couple of Orale Maniacs and a bit of hate..(HATE IS THE SINCEREST FORM OF FLATTERY)

Most fans recognize this guy as a warrior who gives the fans the type of fights we want to see,, he beats the villains we want him to beat,, he avenged his loss to the most disgraceful and disliked fighter in the game,, and he carries himself like a gentleman and a just a man.....though sometimes he does seem like a bit of a dick.

i feel you ... i posted this thread specifically for the haters... i post with facts... i just wanted to count the number of childlike replys i would get....or to see if anyone could explain to me how cotto is not elite.
