Cotto deserves major props because he has proven he is willing to fight anyone... Cotto fought Margacheato when he was perhaps the most avoided fighters in the world, i mean gayweather truened down like an 8mill guarentee to fight him(tho im not suprised by that) and even tho cotto lost to him he still had the balls to fight him when he was on top of the welterweight division meaning he knew he had alot to loose if he lost.
Now cotto has beat jennings in his comeback fight from a brutal ko and he was presented a list of three fights to choose from;
1) Cintron- a fight almost everyone knows cotto would win and it would most like likely make him more money than a fight with Clottey becaue of the fact that 2 puerto ricans would be fighting on the eve of the puerto rican day prade in new york that is jammed with puerto ricans.
2) Berto- said he was willling to fight cotto, and cotto would be a big favorite in this fight, and would also most likely make more money for cotto than fighting clottey. and who out the doesnt want that beautiful WBC belt in their collection?
But no cotto took the hard fight with clottey, who is like margacheato one of the most avoided fighters in boxing. Cotto took the fight against the best guy for the least money......
boxing needs more miguel cottos and floyd should not be able to even buy the fight at home.....
good luck Miguel... in the words of ricky hatton, lets fuking have emmmm....
Becaus ethey are not top notch competition. thats why
All the opponents that they have in Common Cotto has KO the in 5 rounds or less, whle everyone has gone the distance with Mayweather.
Do you mean to tell me that Cotto wont have more succes than castilo or Hatton, or judah, that gave mayweather hell. Cotto is fast enought to keep up with mayweather, plus Cottos timing is best in the sport right now. And you know Tmming kills speed, plus the fact that Floyd dont like to get pressure nor hit to the body. Cottos sledehammer jab, is something that bothers mayweather, in all cases Cottos style is all wrong for mayweather.
judah did decent against mayweather for 3 rounds, mostly because he's slightly faster and may had to adjust to the southpaw stance.. hatton did alot of mauling but aside from maybe 2 jabs he did not land any effective punshes.. castillo did pretty good in their first fight, partially due to the rotator cuff, and due to his intense pressure, ability to take a punch and constant focus on getting to the body..
in regards to timing, dont you think mayweather has good timing? and on the contrary mayweather does very well against pressure fighters.. floyd also has a longer reach over miguel and i believe he will be delivering the straight right hand over the top of miguel's jab.. floyd also like to go to the body, mainly delivering jabs to the body.
yea u make some good points about the analysis of the fight.. i still think mayweather would win and would favor but anything is possible cotto could win

took the words right out of my mouth....
pretty good list, although Maussa always was garbage, some of cotto's victims were also victims to mayweather so shouldnt mayweather get props as well?? i see you conviently left out Alfonso Gomez and Jennings.
you just refuse to give mayweather props.. cotto is a good fighter, he can box and has skills.. but him vs mayweather is a bad match for him and he would lose.. Mayweather is faster, is better defensively, has more stamina, does pretty good body work himself, smarter fighter, can make adjustments, i mean the list goes on.. so you mean to tell me the same guy that was getting tagged by margarito wont be getting tagged constantly by mayweather, a guy who by the way has faster hands, is more accurate, and an overall better boxer?
good summary but i think your wrong. cotto would win
Mosley, Judah,Quintana, margarito, malignaggie, Torres, corley, bailley, Maussa,Bazan and now clottey,all champs or former champs. STFU, with your stupid shit. Cotto has been fighting top notch Comp since forever.
And Mayweather hell have hell with cotto thats why he aint fighting him.
amen brother. mayweather wants no part of floyd or any other top ranked welter weight.....

cotto cant beat floyd... he couldnt even survive a few more rounds to win by decision against margo.
i give him props for fighting clottey instead of berto tho, but he needs to fight mosley again
Lol at The Flomos, trying to bash cotto. Mother fukkas, will defend his boyfriend from any live threat. Floyd didnt want non of Cotto nor Marcheato, thats a fact. After he beated Castillo he became a money whore. His 2 biggest wins after castillo are Judah and Hatton, wich I give him credit for it tho, becase Judah was tgging his ass, and he adjusted and made Judah look silly and he was getting rough up an pressure and he adjusted agagin and pulled the fight. But dont say Cotto is afraid of that MOFo, because Cotto is beng fighting all the fighters Mayweather ducked, including plaster man.
I give oyd his props for what he have done but at the same time he have ducked a lot of people specially at 147.
Cotto will kick his ass and he knows it, thats why he aint fighting Cotto ever. too sad, because thats a fight that everybody wants to see, besides FLomos.
To the subject of the thread,Props to Cotto for fighting the people that oher fighters ducked, last year was Plasterito, this year will be CLottey and maybe next year it will e Williams.
Warrrrrr Cotto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you act like all cotto does is fight A rank top class fighters.. he gets props for fighting clottey, but the dickriding from his cottosexual fans is ridiculous.. and lets be honest, mayweather would more than likely beat cotto in the ring decisively
Cotto got knocked out against Margarito. He would get embarassed by Floyd, and even Cotto knows it.
Floyd is just a better fighter.
Off Ya Fukk son....

Sure he deserves props for taking fights but lets be real, this is a guy who got knocked out by Antionio Margarito. Lets not pretend Clottey is a world beater, he is second class at welterweight.
Its sad we have to commened Cotto for taking on the best as thats the way it SHOULD be - The Best fighting The Best!
But in this day and age where fighters duck and dive, squable over money and fans defend them to the end over money issues u HAVE to take ur hat off to a Classy throw back like Miguel Cotto
I respect the fighter who stood up the the threat/challenge and failed, over the fighter who tucked his tail between his legs and curled.
oh ok a guy that fought in 5 divisions and usually against bigger, stronger opponents is a coward? yeah ok you're very intelligent :spankme:
Ummm, maybe because he's a World Champion on the verge to unify?
Can you say the same about Floyd?
i can say floyd has actually cleaned out divisions, unlike cotto.. not to discredit cotto, unlike you trying your best to discredit floyd, but cotto hasn't unified any divisions, he hasnt cleaned out any divisions.. he has yet to even beat a champion for their belt.. he has only fought for vacant belts if you want to get technical.. so there is a fighter who has went through multiple divisions and won belts and was crowned the champ in each division.. can you say the same about cotto?
I meant at 147 and I never said accomplished more, so take that dick out cha mouth..
Why are we even talking about a retired fighter?
:davil2:
hold on you flaming ******.. you brought up his name loser.. you stay with a dick in your ass cunt :tool:
PWill ain't coming back to WW. His size is going to be more attractive for the higher weight classes. Though I think Cotto can and would beat him, he just doesn't have that "IT" factor yet (meaning Williams). It's not that anyone's afraid of him, he just doesn't posses a big name against a Mosley or Cotto at this point. If the fight ever does happen, so be it...I'd like to see it. But I think Williams is going to coast in the 154-160 where he himself might be able to spark up those divisions.
yea cotto vs williams could be a great fight but i got cotto stopping him with body shots cus of williams extreamly long mid section.
all day long!
this one ends in KO!
if he beats winky.... this is cottos path...
clottey
pac - as a reward for renovating and fedding the hungry lion with a paycheck
berto
mosley
william...
& margieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee again WAAAAARRRR!!!!
yea cotto vs williams could be a great fight but i got cotto stopping him with body shots cus of williams extreamly long mid section.
If Cotto can find a way to get inside on Williams and unload with body shots, its a short night for Williams. If Williams is able to keep Cotto at bay with his long reach, and high workrate, i can see Williams coasting to a decision.
if williams beats winky wright! you can bet they will!!
right now.. u know.. that this aint happenin!
2 sad... i have Mad respect for williams !!!!!:boxing: he deserve his payday 2!
its very sad that boxing fans aint putting their $upport on him.
