Cotto can become one of the biggest stars in history. His fighting style is complete, he can do it all, box, brawl, slug, he is truly fearless and a class act in and out of the ring. he is universally beloved and respected. even mayweather respects him so much he will never fight him.
Imagine how big Cotto can be. His style is always exciting. Yeah he might lose like Duran but everyone loves a guy who fights like Cotto and acts like he does in and out of the ring. Pure class.
Mayweasther will never be revered for his character, everyone knows he is a super talent but he has been well managed and protected from risky fights, of ocurse by his own orders.
Cotto is the spirit of a true warrior, all that is great about the sport. Floyd is not. Cotto will one day be a massive superstar, floyd only rides the coattails of major stars, on his own people will not buy his fights against mismatched opposition. this is why he is in hiatus or going to MMA. he knows he can't ride anymore coattails.
Cotto will not even beg Oscar for a fight, that's how classy he is. In every way he makes mayweather look pathetic. ALL HAIL MIGUEL ANGEL COTTO!!!
Cotto is a superstar right now, more so than floyd was before he got the Oscar fight which elevated him. Cotto's englis is very good, not perfect but damn good, i'd even say better than Judah's :)
Cotto just needs the chance to wipeout mayweather then he will be an undisputed bonafyde superstar. mayweather knows this, knows he could lose and like a stingy grub is refusing to share the spotlight with Cotto. this is one reason why he is severly disliked. Cotto has payed his dues and earned the opportunity but floyd, the little bytch that she is, will not do the honorable thing.
But regardless, Cotto will get there. Tito was there. He is a superstar, his englis sucks but he communicates without language. he communicates with his smile and body gestures. I know many english speakers who love Trinidad absolutely love the guy. his great personality not only compliments but transcends his awesome fighting style.
Cotto is an inch away from Superstardom, his last two wins were good, but there are major detractors. Mosley was ancient, and Judah was coming off a long lay off and was never a superstar in the first place. If Cotto beats Oscar people will say he was too Old. Same with Vernon Forrest or Winky Wright @ 154. Cotto needs Ricky Hatton (coming off a loss but w/e) or more importantly, Floyd Mayweather Jr. There is no one else who is a huge name.
I can agree that true boxing fans will say that De la Hoya was old but beating De la Hoya would do wonders for Cotto's career. I totally disagree with you about if Cotto beat Forrest and Wright. Those would be the best possible wins he could get besides the major upset of PBF. I feel Cotto would lose to all 3 of those fighters though. Cotto wants no part of those 2 dudes @ 154. Cotto would have to fire Arum to make those fights happen.

Oh, and while I agree that Cotto improving his english can only help, not hurt him, Trinidad never bothered to try and look how far he got. It has far more to do with Cotto's demeanor and personality than him not speaking perfect english.
i agree, Trinidad had that swag about him, Cotto just doesnt carry that with him, his crossover fanbase is really lacking, whereas by the time trinidad was on PPV alot of people were definately checkin for him.

LMAO now that is disrespectful offering a man a flower. LMAO
Where do you get I'm mad from what I said? This is the fucking internet this shit ain't going to make me mad. I cuss that is how I am. If cussing makes you think I am mad I am truly not mad. You haven't said one thing that is disrespectful so no reason to be mad.

That being said, I don't see how it can possibly be construed as racist when someone mentions that.
why u mad?

Can we stop with the fucking "Mayweather needs to wait for Cotto to get bigger" shit? That is NOT the reason the fight won't happen if it doesn't (I think it will eventually).
Cotto IS ALREADY BIG. He beat Judah. He beat current and former world champions. He's beaten undefeated knockout artists. He beat fucking Mosley. Who can he fight to make him bigger? Margarito? Williams? LOL. Cotto is fresh off beating a legend who most people had as the favorite, so let's get off that whole excuse, that has nothing to do with it.
The ONLY fight he can take before Mayweather to make him bigger would be DLH, and if he beats him in a more convincing fashion than Mayweather did, Floyd-Cotto would be a huge mega money fight and there would be no excuses left.
it has to due with the credibility of your opinion when debating. you seem to have some pretty wack opinions. but then again, thats only my opinion.
Exactly its only your opinion and I know some others share that view. Just like I don't agree with some shit you say.
Yes I said something along those lines and what the fuck does that have to do with this topic? If you want to debate what I said about PBF and his fans make a thread and we can do that.

wait, arent you the same dude who said that the reason floyd dont got no support at his fights is because his fans are too lower class and dont have money to go?

Cotto is cool and all, a pretty decent fighter, but he hasn't fought nowhere the comp that Floyd has been fighting his whole career. He fought some pretty good names(2) last year and came out on top, but neither of them where at their best and both of those fights had some contorversial moments or decisions. So let's be real, Cotto can be a great fighter 1 day, but Floyd already is one!
is Mosley just a good fighter? is Mosley an ATG? just curios...
Mosley used to be a great fighter and yes Mosley is good right now. No Mosley is not a ATG
No Cotto can not become one of the biggest stars in history. Cotto simply is not good enough and I don't see potential for him to improve that much to become so. Yes Cotto can box, slug and brawl but Cotto does none of them on a elite level. Cotto doesn't have the skill to move to many different weight classes. Everybody thought Michael Jackson was great guy until that shit came out about him fucking with kids so whos to really say what Cotto is like out of the ring. Me personally I don't give a fuck what he does out of the ring as long as it ain't fucking with kids or raping people.
For the record talking about PBF never helps your argument.
Before I am called a hater or a PBF nuthugger. I picked Cotto to beat Mosley and I truly think he is a good fighter. Just don't think he can become a all-time great fighter.
wait, arent you the same dude who said that the reason floyd dont got no support at his fights is because his fans are too lower class and dont have money to go?
