Miguel Cotto Interview (Somebody translate this please?)

he should hire roach period Roach was around along time before Manny and he wasnt looked at as the best. He wont be when Manny is gone. Manny made Freddie.

Deep inside he knows he needs a real trainer he just doesn't want to shit on his corner. Arum will make sure that Santiago will not be head trainer again this is the last time we'll see him as Cotto's head trainer.

He really needs to change his corner..I still feel he should've sparred with Judah and Calderon..and maybe even Sergio Martinez.. Cotto's preparation and camp was all planned by him..he ran the shit and Santiago would oblige..He's a typical YES MAN..I'll be the one to say...Miguel Angel NEEDS Evangelista back!! Completely agree. Maybe Evangelista would not have made a difference and maybe he would have, but I bet Cotto would have taken less punishment if Evangelista had been there. I don't want to knock Santiago. He tried, but evidently there is a LOT more to being a trainer than observing and hoping to repeat what he learned from Evangelista.

Again, I said if he can handle Shawn Porter, Cotto's punches will have no effect. While it might look like I'm blowing my own trumpet here, I'm really not wanting to do that, but it was just always obvious he would be able to take the punishment and remain upright. People underestimated Porter, they said "yeah, but Porter isn't Cotto, dumbass!" Doesn't matter. He sparred Pacquiao for many, many weeks and he could not put Manny on the canvas despite the extra incentive of Roach offering $1000 to anyone who could deck him. So, with all the chances he had, the chance of Cotto being able to do it in 36 minutes was minimal. Manny is correct when he says if you work hard in the gym the fight is easy. There's no better way of putting it. The way to train for a hard hitter like Cotto is to utilize sparring partners who are bigger and faster than the opponent, and it worked perfectly. Porter deserves credit. He was a huge help in this latest Pacquiao victory. imho, you were being bold basing it on porter. I was being conversative... imho, I like my pick better, but no guts no glory.

I'd go for Roach 2nd motion! Ok maybe we can have a poll here, if who would be the best trainer for Cotto. What do you think guys?

I'd go for Roach

Cotto needs a world class trainer. He can't afford to wait for Santiago to mature at this stage of his carreer.

Roach is his best option. Roach likes Cotto and respects Cotto, and it also helps that Roach is a good trainer.

you were right, but who knew pac could take a WW punch? I erred on the side of caution, but you made a bold pick. congrats. on the flipside, pac could've won the fight a lot easier if he just boxed. the KOs would come regardless, but he took a lot of damage just to prove to cotto that he was just as strong as cotto.

lol, good stuff. I cant say anything but you where right and your guy was the better man!!! Ch@mp, what do you think Miguel will do? He said he will fight on, but do you think it's a good idea? I think he really should get in with Roach. He's not done yet, there's more left in Cotto but he needs the right kind of guidance, he can't keep training himself, he's making a mistake. 100% free webcam site! | Awesome chicks and it is absolutely free! | Watch free live sex cam - easy as 1-2-3

I should dig up my posts on being unable to time what you can't see coming and how Cotto would lose the plot in round 3. you were right, but who knew pac could take a WW punch?

Classy sig brothe, green K!!!1 Thanks Ch@mp. I joined the Cartel, btw. I became MORE of a Cotto fan after the fight. Green returned. Old post: Timing is all good if you're in with a guy with a predictable, boring 4/4 rhythm. Manny's shit is on some syncopated 21/16 type Virgil Donati shit, and with that, Cotto might not even be able to think fast enough to time Manny. I say Cotto does well for a few rounds, then starts to lose the plot in round 3. Always listen to your uncle Sam. 100% free webcam site! | Awesome chicks and it is absolutely free! | Watch free live sex cam - easy as 1-2-3

its the other way around, pac would be advised to box and cotto would be advised to brawl. If he wants to get Hattoned, yes. Don't brawl with Manny, you'll always come off worst. cotto ain't hatton. cotto never been stopped by a punch, only stopped because of shitty stamina.

he should hire roach period I agree. Who better to train you than the one who finds your flaws? I think it was to go toe-to-toe with Pac because Santiago said Pac can't withstand a true welterweight punch. But the opposite happened. Crazy. One of the last things I said before the fight was it's a huge mistake to brawl with Pacquiao, because everyone who does it always comes off worse. You will get beaten to the punch because he is just too fast. It's suicide. I can't believe anyone was saying Cotto needs to brawl and bully him. Maybe they haven't seen many Pacquiao fights. 100% free webcam site! | Awesome chicks and it is absolutely free! | Watch free live sex cam - easy as 1-2-3

best thing he could do. hire ariza as well. I think freddy could help a lot. Wordup, what I was thinking. Including Buboy lol

His left cheek is swollen. Pac's right hand did damaged.

The game plan was to control pac using the jab and to counter manny when he sliped the jab. I agree. The problem was when manny figured that out, he was able to time cotto's jab ... with a counter right hookjab! Makes you wanna be gunshy.

Of course I was cheering for Pac, but damn Cotto is such an honorable and humble guy and a good person, I didn't like seeing Cotto taking that beating and seeing him talk wid his face all swollen got me wellin up tears a little bit, damn. I feel for the guy no homo... Ok homo, just this once.

HE'S TOO BIG HE'S TOO BIG!!! Im surprised to see you around here lol... my pick was the same as manglers: if the fight goes past 6 cotto will get destroyed.

Then one reporte ask him aout if he was going to change his corne, and he said, "no, why?" Why dont you tell me, why I would do that?" Lol, damn it, too bad it's a reporter so they can't answer that question truthfully to him. Somebody please tell him in his face "BECAUSE SANTIAGO SUCKS!" =P
