Seems like he partially dealt with the loss by getting tatoos, doesnt send the best mental stability signals if you ask me. I think Jennings may suprise everyone..
If he was upset about his loss to Margarito, Im sure hes over that now. Margarito is a cheater. Cotto would have won that fight if Margarito didnt put that plaster in his gloves.
my personal veiw is that the pressure of being a unbeaten fighter at that level must be overwelming, and since the loss he might feel a lot of that pressure is gone and might feel more free to express himself and to be himself. just a thought
I was thinking along those lines. I'm going to reserve my judgement until after he fights. If he looks focused, I would say the tattoos don't mean anything but if he falls apart out there in a fight he should win, I might be inclined to think losing his 0 made him wig out a bit.
U cant even get a tat nowadays without feeling the backlash of the boxingscene residents hehe
He should find out what was in margs wraps and get an artist to tattoo up a design for him
But let's not overreact here. Jennings is facing someone who's NOT done yet, and has something to prove to the public.
JENNINGS IS GONNA CATCH A BAD ONE----- THE INK AIN'T EVEN GONNA MATTER
I don't think it is neither good or bad... the guy fancied getting a few tattoos he likes that he feels will look good on him, that has nothing to do with his previous fight or confidence or anything.
Well that's my opinion anyway... :)
Cotto got tattoos before the Margarito fight, so the point of this thread is invalid.
that is f**kin silly, you think fighters get tats to make people think we are bad ass? we FIGHT FOR A LIVING hows that for being a bad ass? maybe if he was working at the local store that obsevation might be valid, but were talking about a world class fist fighter. and you say he quit? no he made a very wise decision to fight another day
Good post, green K.

i dont think its a good sign. since he quit i guess he felt he had to make up for it by getting tattoos so people think he's a bad ass again, but we see right thru him.

truly a shit post.
all i'm trying to say is that cotto needs to prove his bad asssness in the ring and not with tattoos.
if he wanted tattoos the whole time, why not get them when he won tough fight?

It may be a bad sign for his future opponents... I seen cotto going away from the original cotto in the fights leading up to Margarito. He used to express himself through his hairstyles, but he stopped doing that, so now he is getting tatted up and ready for War. He was becoming a boxer, but now he is returning back to warrior mode...

Uh, so now we are judging the dude's mentality because he got some more tattoos? WTF does that make Collazo, and mental midget?
Tattoo is an art form and one of the best ways to express yourself. Cotto is probably just an enthusiat.
Your missing the point.
Heres some pics I came across for who asked to see them
