Prime Cotto vs. Prime Tito = Tito by early KO!
Tito just had too much charisma, confidence and killer instinct for Cotto.
If Cotto couldn't handle Margarito's pressure then Tito would blast him EARLY.
This is an opinion from an unbiased black man.
you are either a Tito hater or a boricua hater, which one is it? Did Tito beat one of your favorite fighters?
He contested everything I said LOL. Dude, Tito lost to BHOP after moving into a weight class that was way above his norm. The whole winky fight was after tito had lost his love for boxing, and Your girl DLH ran like if he was getting chased by la Migra so **** off. Cotto will NEVER be half the fighter tito was.
cotto is 10x the fighter tito ever was. it's kind of disgusting how they worship him instead though.
so die hard pr fans like him more than cotto because of his heart, will and power? i say cotto has more heart, will AND power than tito. many would agree...

i doubt it.
damn flomo...pretending like he knows what he's talking about.
tito was my fav fighter growing very exciting! up second to oscar ofcource but he was so friendly and charismatic. still remember his name being called felix titooooooooooooo trrrrinidaaaad !
I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt by eliminating the fact that you were a dumb ass, but since you excluded the racist implication then I guess your just a dumb ass.
too late. your initial comment exposed you as an idiot.
lol @ me being racist. you don't know what being racist means so stop it.

FWIW: I use to share office space with the cousin of both Tito's and Cotto's former promoter. He showed me a ton of pictures and even pics showing that Cotto came to the office. He suprised me by saying that Trinidad is much more friendly and down to earth than Cotto. He didn't say Cotto was bad just that he could be aloof and did like the party life more.
...he doesn't run to the corner, climb the turnbuckle and yell "Puerto Ricooo" after every knock down like a clown. that is all.
does omar henry do that?
really? is that all you've got?
No taught he was gonna be great, he couldnt carry Trinidads jock strap, so he had moderate sucess, nothing fancy. Puerto Ricans also have meny champions to root, not only Cotto. Even now Juanma is not the only one :drillserg
I don't really care about trash talking that's now what I meant.
I just don't care for his type of personality is really all it is. Not my style, I don't like people like that that I know, and I don't like athletes or celebrities that are like that.
I wouldn't say Cotto isn't half the figher Tito was. In fact, that's crazy. I know you LOVE Tito, come on. Cotto isn't half the fighter Tito is? That's going too far.
Tito is arguably an ATG...many people wouldn't have him in their top 100.
And I don't really think Cotto is a borderline HOF. Cotto will get in the HOF.
Difference is.....Tito is a lock for the first ballot, while Cotto isn't.
Tito was simply a superior fighter, no one could possibly argue that. But you're exaggerating the gap.
Agree with this post 100%.
Tito >>> Cotto, but the difference isn't ridiculous.
Cotto wouldn't be able to carry titos jock straps. Please. Cotto has heart? Tito NEVER took a knee Never. Tito kept it real, he was a humble poor dude who worked his ass off for the money he now has. Cotto is a come mierda, that's a fact. He's from Caguas which is the metro area hence the come mierdas. Tito comes from the country wheree people still to this day say good morning to you and in restaurants they tell you Buen Provecho. and in all the years that I have watched tito and cotto, tito only got his ass kicked by one man BHOP.
Fine winky schooled him but it was different. When tito lost to BHOP, us real ricans cried like *****es. Tito had that swag and charisma that you had no choice but to love him. the whole vargas thing was personal, vargas was talking alot of smack, and if you see when they are in the middle of the ring Vargas puts water in his mouth and fronts like he's going to spit at tito. Tito just looks at him and says "dale, haci mismo es" vargas froze after that. Check it out.
you're an idiot. i'm gonna contest everything you said..
1. tito never took a knee because he never got pummeled with bricks. in fact, he probably did the brick pummeling himself.
2. tito's humble? i swear in every fukking interview, video and picture he's making a #1 with his fingers talking about "puerto rico numero uno papa"! fukk outta here. cotto in fact is the humble and reserved one. and he too deserves every penny he's made just as tito did. and wow @ cotto being less of a fighter or a person for that matter because he's from the city. you're really differentiating "real pr's" from the fake ones? crazy.
3. manners are taught and passed down. and of what consequence is it if a fighter has manners or not?????????????? that's sooo fukking left field.
4. sorry but um, if i remember correctly, tito got his ass kicked by winky, hopkins and jones. and if you really wanna go there, DLH too.
saddest part is you guys really really put him on this golden puerto rican pedestal(mainly because he was an overly patriotic cornball who played that part really well) and yet the time when pr fans needed him most during that hopkins ordeal with flags being thrown on the floor rice and beans popping all over the place etc, he got knocked the fukk out.
he beat an over the hill camacho and over the hill whitaker, a wet behind the ears vargas and a wild slugger in mayorga. he's a fraud. and if he didn't wear his islands colors half the time and didn't call out his islands' name for no reason every time he spoke he wouldn't be as revered as he is today. and thats the whole truth so help me god. :boxing:
Tito would beat the brakes off Cotto. I liked Tito more than Cotto though and it had nothing to do with how they acted. How any fighter or athlete acts doesn't determine whether I like them or not. They can be humble or the biggest a$$hole on the planet as long as they perform at what I pay to watch them do I can careless how they act!!!!!
