People who think Cotto is shot wake up everyday, go to the bathroom and can't see their penis in the process.
I think cotto is shot so that analysis is pretty flawed. I wake up with morning wood so I have no prob seeing my glans and shaft.
Cotto isn't shot but the loss to Marg might have took a little out of him. It's hard to tell because Jennings was a bum and he didn't look too impressive against Clottey, but he was fighting with a brutal cut for most of the fight so what do you expect.
do you mean clottey or corley? i may be wrong but I think the corley fight was BEFORE the torres fight (where cotto was put down for the first time)- which would be why I omitted it. If you mean the clottey fight, then yes I missed it. I didn't see the entire fight because I was away at training for the Marine Corps for over a month and I didn't have access to any PPV.
I'll give all good boxers their props. I don't understand why people can't do the same.
Hard Charger, I give props whenever they are due.
I'm assuming you have fought everyday of your life since you can't seem to recall other times when he has been Rocked! How about when hop Chop touched him? You recall that?
But I am also assuming you are PR so nuthing that isnt a cotto love fest will suit you so i'll disregard your comments on this debate.

People on these forums never fought a day in their lives. The only time they ever bleed is during their monthly cycle. They don't understand what it's like to have blood dripping in your eye from a cut.
Cotto doesn't get "rocked" in every fight. Mosley didn't really hurt him at all, despite landing some big right hands. Judah defintely stunned him a bit with an uppercut on the way in. Aside from that, he hasn't really been hurt in any recent fight (including while at jr WW) since he was knocked down by Torres; with exception of course to the Margarito fight.
To say Cotto is shot because he didn't look outstanding against one of the top WW's out there is just ridiculous. If he was shot, Clottey would have KO'd him.

Cotto is not shot. Thats stupid to say. Everyone has a weakness and Cotto's is pressure fighters.
Cotto gets tired(might be a weight thing), which is why he begins to eat punches after the 7th round. He gets too tired to keep his guard up, so he tries to immitate Whitaker but fails and eats punches all day.
He eats the SAME punches from rd 1 to rd7. Then he gets on his bike and tries to imitate PWhit.
@140 it was the weight
@147 it was the competition
If he is not shot from the beatings he took and dished out then he was never really as good as the hype he got!
I think the former!
Because he was in a close fight with a top 5 welterweight, in which he could hardly see out of his left eye, that means he is shot?

he's not shot. its just his aura of invincability is gone. b4 the Marg fight people thought he was this unstoppable recking machine or something. then clottey gav him a tough, tough fight. he's not shot, just human
Told u guys! It was a solid career but not great.
Two things to blame for his premature demise: poor defensive skills & a sorry ass corner!
RIP Cotto's career.
He is not shot but it looks like he has lost something. The Cotto that fought Mosley wins an easy ud against Clottey, cut eye and everything.
It was the same cotto! SSM has no defense outside of grappling. So he ate punches too. But once again when the fatigue set in he got on those motorized ring boots!
Ok we agree,well let me put it so,if everyone except Clottey is willing to fight the Punisher,I can't blame Cotto for heading for the hills either,thats all I'm sayin!!The Punisher owns 147-160,everyone else is scrambling away from him like the plague,sh*t,Cotto better run too!!
And thats cool with u?
Tell me something I don't know!
Now explain why he is avoiding PW but yet he is an elite who fights any and everybody?
