Even Emanuel Steward knows this. At the post fight press conference he said that Margy's style would always be a bad matchup for Cotto. I also said that Margarito would beat Cotto the first time they fought. Stop smoking that sh!t everyone. Margy is just a bad style matchup for Cotto.
So is Pac.
Now can he beat those two!? I believe with the perfect gameplan yes....he could outbox both of them all night if he wanted. The problem is I don't think he would be able to keep them off of him all night. Anywayz War Cotto AND Fvck Yall Newbs For Not Seeing The Obvious!!! :boxing::dance::boxing:
All the wars Cotto has had have taken a toll on him. It's only natural. No fighter can go on like that for a long time. El tiempo no perdona.
I sort of agree, but look at Pac. He has had a few wars, and he is doing great. Cotto is the same with or without the beating in the Margy fight.
If it wasn't for Margicheato with his handwraps Cotto would of outboxed him for 12 rounds even with Margicheato pressuring him. Getting hit with those loaded gloves for that many rounds takes a toll on you. Those shots started breaking Cotto down as the fight moved on and Cotto couldn't take it anymore. **** Manny doesn't last 12 rounds with Chester Cheato and his loaded gloves period. Also a Cotto Manny rematch at 150 would be a fight i would watch. Cotto fighting Manny at 145 was a mistake and fighting Manny with no trainer was a mistake. I remember Steward stating that if he was the guy training Cotto for the fight, Cotto would knock Manny out. Now im not saying that that would of happend but clearly Steward sees flaws in Mannys style that Cotto and his non trainer didn't see. Cotto outboxes Chester Cheato in there rematch, if not a lefthook to the body ends it.
Cotto's facial expression say it all. I actually feel bad for the guy, he's been giving the fans good fights throughout most of his career, too many wars, nothing else to prove.
dont listen to larry come on its the same troll from b4 the same one who started crying and saying bad **** bout cotto member kneegal cotto it was him who started it like I always learned once a pig always a pig. Anyways Cotto lost something dude hes not the same he cant beat pacquiao and i learned that after this fight he gets hit too. I do agree he can and will beat margarito who still has a ****ed up eye hence he had on shades in a dark room cotto will win. Cotto should stay away from Pac and Sergio. I bet *****weather would still be afraid to fight a damaged cotto though
Yeah I seen how he be hating on Cotto. Guess that happens when your hero is out slapping hoes. Anywayz I posted something in the Cartel. B E Z!
I swear you dudes amaze me. Cotto and Margarito were never the same after their fight. They both broke each other down.
Man u have amazed me since I joined with your unrivaled Mexican & Margarito nuthugetry. Please stop your nonsense! :bottle:
cotto stopped throwing his jab cause he was getting countered man..people dont just stop throwing shots for no reason..manny figured him out and shut him down
I didn't see it that way. I saw Pac mentally beating Cotto by having him think that his punches weren't affecting him. I also saw Cotto trying to exchange with Pac, which I thought was fine but then understood that that was a big no no.
d-ominist on the cotto love train and that's cool - i like cotto's chances against margarito, i mean not that much cuz tony's still tony but paq, sheit man, i'd never want to see that rematch.
like dude said, paq just on another level.
LOL @ on Cotto's love train. Nah man I know Cotto has his flaws... pressure. If he could find a way to deal with that then he would be top dog again. That's all I'm saying. What's been good though?...
Hell no I aint underrating his skills. Manny is the best fighter right now...along with Sergio. I am a firm believer that no fighter is unbeatable though. With that said, I have May beating Pac and Sergio whooping on May. Two fights that most likely won't ever happen.
Yup.. no fighter is invincible.
Alright we all know that Cotto has leaky defense, but slow footwork!? Nah man that has to be hate. He doesn't have Manny's or May's footwork but it isn't slow bro. Sh!t I could even say that 90% of pro boxers wish they had his footwork. I don't know about 100 times better, but many does have him in footwork, handspeed and counterpunching. I still don't know if he has more power than Cotto. Even with that said, I think Cotto could win against Pac behind his perfected jab. Sort of like how the Pac/Cotto fight started off. He just needs to be careful or reduce the amount of exchanges when fighting Pac. A good game plan always wins.

Cotto is one of my fav's bro.. but you underrate Mannys boxing skills. Manny is just on another level..

to say he can outbox manny when he just got his ass tore up is unbelievable man..seriously i like cotto but he aint on mannys level..not even close
Yup. People tend to think that if Cotto kept his jab going he could have boxed pacquiaos ears off. What people don't realize was that Manny countering/throwing jabs/straights over Cottos shots. Only time Cotto wasn't getting hurt was when he started dancing away. And Cotto is one of my favs but Pacquiao is on another level as a fighter. Only guy i see beating Manny is Floyd and that's 50/50 55/45.
sorry man but he doesnt..his defense is to leaky,his footwork is to slow,his handspeed isnt even close to mannys..manny is 100 times better

I agree but you also have to admit that Cotto isn't the same fighter he was 3-4 yrs ago. Cotto is no longer a fighter in his prime.
that cuts deep son, real deep.
it's the truth though el tipo ha perdido algo.
I kind of agree with the clinching part, but Cotto does have the boxing skills to beat Pac. It's just that he won't try to outbox him...he will exchange with the little man, and most likely get KO'd in the process.
