Quit comparing Eric Morales to Cotto.

Morales is better than Cotto ever was, or ever will be period. He is tougher, has a better chin, is more skilled, has more heart, more stamina, and most importantly balls then Cotto has. Quit comparing what Morales was capable of doing to what you think Cotto can do. It's a mockery to the name of Morales. Right keep dreaming buddy.

erik morales fought until the end. meanwhile barrera ran for 12 rounds.... i have more respect for morales. Don't disrspect Barrera. Morales and Barrera are both true warriors.

My ass. Erik got knocked off his feet, and went out guns blazing like a man. erik morales fought until the end. meanwhile barrera ran for 12 rounds.... i have more respect for morales.

skillwise yes totally different styles. HOWever, Cotto has a better chance at achieving what Erik morales couldnt do, which is knock out Manny pacquiao Thats obvious. He's way bigger than Morales. :dunce:

LOL stop overrating Pac You're just inviting more haters :D skillwise yes totally different styles. HOWever, Cotto has a better chance at achieving what Erik morales couldnt do, which is knock out Manny pacquiao

Right..... Bantamweight-Featherweight Erik Morales is WAY more dangerous than Welterweight Miguel Cotto, and hits harder and is stronger. :slap:

wow this ****** is still at it your hating ass will neva change He's not hating bro. He's just stating facts and I'm a Cotto fan.

I couldn't agree more. Morales in his prime was superior to Cotto in pretty much every department. Those who think otherwise need a new brain.

morales>>>>>>>>cotto

wow this ****** is still at it your hating ass will neva change everyday bro 5-10 cotto hating threads ...is a shame :wtf1:. one of the very few boxers that fight anybody, always put in a good show and some fockers all always hating. cant wait till nov 14 bro :boxing:

And how much better JMM is !!!!!! Comparing Cotto to JMM should be a punishable offense.

Well Pacquiao has carried his shot up, but not as devastating at WW as it was at featherweight. Pacquiao could walk his opponents down then, and he couldn't stop Erik, when he stops Cotto at 145 that will show you how much better Erik is. And how much better JMM is !!!!!!

My first post on this forum. Erik Morales might have been a better fighter than Cotto, but Miguel is a lot bigger. People are underestimating how much bigger Cotto will be on fight night than Pacquiao. He is going to come in between 155-160. The only man to ever beat Cotto was almost 6' and was simply a bigger man. It still took 11 brutal rounds to make Cotto quit. JMM was able to hurt Pac-Man, don't tell me Cotto can't do the same. That being said I got Pac in a close decision because of his speed. 115-113. Mark it down!!!!!

Wow get off cottos nuts already..Youre on them like they had seats or something...Everytime i come on here youre talking about cotto..Youre worse then the fanboys..

This is hypocritical because you think Erik Morales would have had the fan base or following if he would have just boxed all his life? What made him great was that he chose to brawl when the other man questioned his manhood. When he switched to south paw against Manny, that was classic... I'm not saying that. Morales is my favorite because he fought the way he did, I would never change that. All I'm saying is for his health and for his career accomplishments, it may have been advantageous for him to box more.

I wonder how different Morales career might have gone if he took full advantage of his reach and boxing skills and didn't brawl as much I think if he used it more, he would've had better longevity and maybe more accolades, but his status as a "fan friendly" fighter would be lessened.

Yeah, Quit it. Everybody knows it's Cotto > Morales. I see you discovered my lady, Ms. Palmas. Palmas>>>>>>>Hayden.

These are two of my favorite fighters. I believe Morales is a better fighter than Cotto. However, I believe Cotto is a SMARTER fighter than Erik Morales. Morales didn't need to fight the way he did to win, and his body will hate him for that.

You're right. Cotto would never get outboxed by Raheem, let alone outclassed.
