I told all of you that he hasnt really beaten anyone and his only good win is against N'Dou and we still dont know how good N'Dou really is. I have said this a million times and now we see that he was the journeyman that his record showed which makes Cotto's win not that great.
Does your opinion of Cotto change at all now? I would love to see him fight Witter. Do you think Chop has a chance now? Im interested to hear what you guys think. I like Cotto but I dont think he has done anything for you guys to be going crazy about and tonight proved it.
Who would win between Cotto and Witter
Sosa was a blown up lightweight. Plus, Cotto fought him 4 years after mayweather. Go figure!!!
Incorrect!
Sosa fought floyd in 4/03 and cotto in 2/04. Which is only 10 month later not 4yrs later.
Sosa fought over 135lbs at least in 9 occasions before fighting Cotto. http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=015488
From where are you getting this info? :rolleyes:
I'm a massive Witter fan, Witter has a naz like style he throws punches from very strange angles with a lot of power, but he can get lazy in fights this is my big worry, if he did this against Cotto, Zoo, Mayweather or Gatti it would be all over in a flash. He did this against N'Dou i had him winning the first 5 rounds (which included 2 knockdowns), then went lazy and lost the next 4, The fight changed again in the 10th when witter caught N'Dou with masive left hand which N'Dou did well not to go down and then the last 2 i gave to witter.
Cotto has better boxing skills than witter and has power but not as much as witter, Cotto has a good defence and has a good chin. Witter would test cotto's chin and this is why it would be a interesting fight it all depends if witter can hurt cotto.
But Cotto could out box witter and take an easy win.
As a witter fan i would like him to face Gatti out of the big names, Gatti likes to come forward and can be open to shots.
Absolute horse-shit. Witter dropped N'Dou, good for him. It says nothing about Cotto (who won more rounds against N'Dou). Not every fight is the same. If Witter and N'dou fought again it could be different....if Cotto and N'Dou fought again it could be different.
All this may be true but nothing in boxing is more dangerous then a power punching lefty
haha i could say the same thing about cotto ;) , nah i know what you mean, witter poses a danger to ALL his opponents.
Styles make fights and Cotto is only going to get better. He is the future of the divison and Chop Chop is just one obstacle in the way. Cotto will knockhim out in 7 or less. ;)
Thats stupid. If Cotto had him down then he wouldve finished him? Yeah, except for the fact that Cotto couldnt get him down in the first place. How can you say that he wouldve finished a guy that he couldnt get down in the first place.
Stop saying that you cant compare Witter to Cotto like he is a #4# champ. You act like he is Zoo or someone. He hasnt done anything yet
So what if he KD'd N'Dou. All that shows is that Witter hits harder than Cotto. Cotto still has a great chin, speed, defense, and can put his punches together nicely. I didn't see the fight so I don't know how well developed Witter's skills are, but I can say that I've seen Cotto grow up in the ring and I really think he has the goods to take over the division. Power isn't everything.
Eastman has good power, but he couldn't catch up to Hopkins to use it effectively. That is a big variable in a fight.

lol, shit dont get mad.IM NOT SAYING COTTO IS #4# CHAMP.But i think he's got the right stuff to do it, whos he gotta beat in your mind? YES witter knocked down Ndou, that means witter has POWER, power is the great equlizer here, but no way he has the bpxing skills cotto has.If they fought you know what i think would happen? I think cotto would do the same shit he did against Bailey.
What has witter done that is better than cotto?Knocking down Ndou? Yeah he did something that NONE of Ndou's other oppenents have done, that says something about Witter.And it might mean something if Ndou went out like a punk,but he didnt,it was UD, you really think that if cotto had gotten two knockdowns on a fighter, that that shit would have gone to decision? No freaking way, so no way you can even compare Witter to Cotto.

You are right btw nice avatar.
Im not trying to discredit him, I just think you guys go overboard on everthing that he does like he's the best thing since slice bread and Im saying that there are other fighters who arent even elite that can do the things that he can do and do them even better. What has Cotto done for you to say that your not going to put Witter on the same level as him. You act like he's a #4# champ or something. His best win is against N'Dou and so is Witter's

Are all of you forgetting how you were saying that Cotto beat Sosa way easier then Floyd did so that means Cotto can hang with him and Im just saying the same about Witter
You can see my icon,Im a cotto fan, but it sounds like your trying too hard to discredit him.Knocking Ndou down is no easy feat, i give Witter, TONS of credit for that, but no way im gonna put Witter on the same level as cotto.Witter punches like a motherfucker, thats his thing!Now Ndou may be a journey man, but he's no fucking push over, he's given everybody he's ever fought a hell of a fight, & even after the knockdowns the fight went to decision, and he even won some of the rounds! Now THAT says something , but not about cotto, about Witter & Ndou.

The point is even if he wins that doesnt mean he's any further along then someone like Witter

You guys dont get it. Cotto only has one good win and I said all along that it might not even be that good and now you see it. I didnt think you guys were going to change your mind about the Corley fight. The point is even if he wins that doesnt mean he's any further along then someone like Witter
seriously...this changes no ones opinion of Cotto. He's still gonna shit on your boy Corley and he'll be the king of 140. Witter/N'Dou was a close fight even though N'dou was droppped.
