So prior to last night the big question was "How much does Cotto have left?"..and there was so many threads speaking on Foreman's talent slickness and even underrated power..
To many fans here Cotto was suppose to have his hands full..and Cottos stamina was also in question..
Now..fact is Cotto beat the SHIT out of Foreman..and now he's a BUM, who can't crack an egg, who everyone all of a sudden knew would get his ass handed to him by the "shot" Cotto right?..lmao!..
I can't believe how the value of this website has tanked so badly..Cotto has struggled in recent years especially after the beating he took by the proven cheater Margarito..whether he loaded up is still a question..and I'll admit beating Foreman really doesn't prove much..
But a few things u can't discredit is Cotto STOPPED an UNDEFEATED Natural 154lber in his first fight at JrMW, his Jab was used a lot more and did WONDERS, and his footwork was beautiful..it was perfect to move at Foremans rythm who's known for his slick footwork..and Cotto cut the ring off and looked powerful even on the move..
So to all the "NSB Experts" EAT A DICK!..all u gotta do is give credit when credit is due!..Cotto finally took a belt from a champ and KO'd him..so the vacant belt shit is dead..and he was in the last quarter of the fight and looked fine stamina wise..I know foreman didn't pressure him..but Cotto was on the move the entire time trying to find his target..
Stop finding shit to discredit and be a fan of the sport like you claim to be..Cotto did what many saw impossible..and he still gets shitted on..y'all know who you are..TRUE BOXING FANS UNITE!!!
The same thing happens with a lot of fights. People here believe the pre-fight hype espoused by individuals and organisations with vested interests in the fight being perceived as an even match. Cotto-Foreman had Manny Steward (on contract with HBO AND Cotto) telling anyone who cared to listen it was a 50-50 fight, not one he would have chosen for Cotto, that Foreman had unseen power and talents, he would give Tommy Hearns problems etc. etc. and his words were echoed around the place by many others. In short, Foreman was built up to be something he wasn't, and we were to believe eight KOs on his record wasn't indicative of his true punching power, when it fact it was.
The insidious side of the hype suggested Foreman's lack of punching power was less a concern since Cotto was physically worn and psychologically damaged. Certain factors that usually count for much i.e. power, aggression, killer instinct etc. were less important against Cotto, because when things got tough Cotto backed down. This was an insinuated part of the marketing for Cotto-Foreman. No-one came out and really said it, but the palookas who are dumb enough to believe everything they read would draw their own conclusions, buy into it at least partially and pay for a fight ticket, buy some merchandise, watch at home on TV or go to a bar and watch etc etc.
So in the wash-out, when Cotto dominates and stops Foreman, and Foreman has none of the weapons he had kept hidden for 28 fights but was supposedly saving for Cotto, and the fans who believed Manny Steward and put $50 on Foreman at the betting house lose their $50 and feel like dorks, they come to NSB and make even bigger dorks of themselves.
Happens every damn fight!

Most of these losers wanted Cotto to fail and when he didnt they tried to find something else.
It sucks when Plaster users, drug addicts and cherry pickers are loved more than the boxers who we never hear anything about the"red tape" or negotiations of their fights . Cotto just wars on while these other are like soap opera women.
Cotto has always been very balanced in every aspect of boxing, those skills don't just disappear, if anything some of them become more polished with continued training, and some attributes like speed, slowly fade. Nonetheless Cotto has been top-notch for the last 5 years or so. I noticed some people just started talking sh*t about Cotto, b/c they don't like Pac, the same way people talk sh*t about Mosley b/c they don't like Mayweather (trying to discredit the wins). Cotto is only 30 years old, right? His skills aren't diminishing at a rapid rate like some people have made it seem. I'm very impressed with how his body frame, being 5'7 (boxrec) was able to handle the extra weight, and he looked good with it. I still don't consider him a natural 154lb (those guys rehydrate to like 165 or so, maybe more, Miguel usually rehydrates to 155 or so, in welterweight bouts). I don't expect Cotto to face a natural like, Martinez at 154, but I'm interested to see what he chooses to do now, he has lots of options.

+1. This site is full of retards who say they are boxing fans but are really lovestruck cheerleaders who are threatened by the success of others fighters who are not the target of their man love. ****ing f@ggots love the sport not the men.
Cotto was never close to being shot. He has struggled in recent years due to fighting better opposition than he had fought previously. Now he took a step back and fought a less dangerous opponent and people are making a big deal of this win. The Cotto that fought Foreman is basically the same as the Cotto that fought Pacquiao, Pacquiao is just a lot better than Foreman.

i'm usually a Quitto hater and i often said around here that Foreman will annihilate him but even I was impressed. Cotto destroyed that man and dominated him
Cotto better not move back down because I do think 154 is his best weight right now I'll have to admit. His problem is that he is gonna have to face a murderer's row unless he's gonna fight Chavez Jr.
Im not going to rank on you cuz it seems u stand by your word and u actually believe he cant hang with some , I disagree tho , I think He can win a decision against Martinez , and I see P.Will eating jabs after jabs after jabs , and his style of defense will benefit cotto's body attack and I see him stopping P.Will. merking Cintron , Angulos pressure might be a bit hard for him , but after seeing cintron outbox him It would be interesting to see what Cotto can do.
I agree wit 2501..
Most Floyd Stans only love his "gangster act" and they are madly in love with that 0..That's why the vast majority hopped right off of Paul Williams' dick..it's sad how this site is so infested with these simple minded flomos!..
I became a fan of Floyd after seeing him beat Mosley the way he did, because I felt like he did what was asked of him like the commentators said. But his legacy is incomplete unless he fights Pacquiao. He looks really bad by retiring if that is true.

it was bound to happen
i was not one of the ones counting miguel out if anything i questioned why so many people were writing him off against a fighter that is as unproven as foreman is
roy jones said it at the begining of the night that foreman does have a style that could troubble miguel but that also miguel has walked down fighters like foreman before
as for this board if you lose a fight you automatically become a bum goes to show how simple minded alot of these posters are
