So many Cotto haters...and why?

Cotto is a great fighter and like you said he fights anyone they stick in front of him!!! I give cotto respect for taking his loss the way he did with his chin up!!! theres no shame in lossing to a guy who could make mw if he was a real man!!!

I got no hate for him. Just dont like when he throws low blows.

Cotto actually gained many more fans for his valiant effort against Margarito. I suspect a lot of the hate thrown his way stems from the back and forth between Cotto and Margarito fans who argued that Cotto could or couldn't knock Margo out. Most predicted a Margarito knockout, which was more of a ref stoppage. A lot also comes from his win over lightly regarded, cotton-fisted Malignaggi, who also gained some props for his efforts. His value has diminished some due to the loss, but he has gained respect for going in against a very tough fighter and fighting his fight 'til he couldn't go on anymore. It remains to be seen how much he has recovered physically and psychologically since his last outing.

First Kelson Pinto was undefeted(20-0-0 18KOs) and he beat Cotto in the Amateurs twice. He was in route to be a champ. And second Cotto didnt fought Ceazar Bazan for any title. Cotto fought Pinto for the WBO vacant JWW title. And he faced Quintana for the Vacant WBA WW title. and Quintana happens to be the former WBO WW champ that gave Paul Williams his first loss.Pinto was a guy who never made it to elite level, so not Championship level, in fact he only fought 2 fighters with a decent record and lost both. Cotto did fight Barzan for a vacant title and the record books back me up. Quintana held one belt for 1 fight when he lost it to a 1st round KO.

you just dig those numbers outta yer ass?95% of statistics are made up on the spot. If you face Champion Quality fighters for the vacant belt is the same. I'm not sure Kelson Pinto or Cesar Barzan are Champion Quality fighter to be honest...

people hate overrated fighters 95% of the hate on cotto comes from floyd fans and those same 95% are all of a sudden williams fans.

The main reason is because he has never beaten a champion for a title. Which considering he's fought at two weights is pretty shocking. Plus his best wins are against Judah who's always lost when he step up a level and Mosley who was 36 I'm not saying he's rubbish but i find it difficult to see how he justifies his top 10 P4P ranking. THIS post should be sold as manure. cause he never beat a champion?:lol1: in an era of alphabet belts? cotto sparked maussa in 2003, somehow, he got a shot at hatton's ring title in 2005 when cotto was still there.(cause he beat vivian harris):lol1: cotto left 140, and dudes he beat copped two belts.this is a bullshit ass reason and you know it. floyd beat an inactive as oscar, barely( was as close as the mosley fight in imo, at least cotto and mosley made it interesting).and that's one of his biggest wins. so to downplay cotto's wins vs mosley is dumb.

Threads like this breed hate man. your not gonna change anyones minds, the haters will be the haters and the rational people will be the rational people. But making threads like this just makes Cotto fans look worse, and his irrational fans are a big reason why he gets hate on here. I'm a Cotto fan and I'm not worried about how threads that I make, like this one,.. make me look to so many that obviously don't even understand the sport of boxing. I just want to know where their thoughts come from. Just because I'm a fan of Cotto doesn't mean I'm supposed to dislike Margarito. He showed alot of hart in that last fight with Cotto and I respect him for that. But he even talks alot of shit too at times. If you notice, he doesn't bad mouth Cotto though, because he has fought him and understands he is a solid fighter that should be respected. I do think Cotto will win #2. Not because I'm a fan. Because I know boxing and when Cotto makes some small adjustments after watching the fight on tape he should overcome....

His eyebrows. o.k. I'll give you that....lol.

His eyebrows.

Why are there so many Cotto haters here? Cotto is the only Welterweight I know that has been open to fight anybody his people want to put in front of him. He is the only fighter when loosing, refuses to come up with excuses, and he only lost one. On top of that he comends the guy who beat him. I know Margarito respects him, so why don't you? In the Welterweight division there are many good fighters. None are great! Floyd is the only one that could maybe claim the "great" title but he is not active as of now. Please explain why you dislike him so much?The main reason is because he has never beaten a champion for a title. Which considering he's fought at two weights is pretty shocking. Plus his best wins are against Judah who's always lost when he step up a level and Mosley who was 36 I'm not saying he's rubbish but i find it difficult to see how he justifies his top 10 P4P ranking.
