The in hindsight overrating of Miguel Cotto.

I wasnt joking, he wasnt THE Champ but he held a title which is more than JLC ever did at LWW and i rated Holt at the time, he's still dangerous and im sure he gives Hatton plenty to worry about with that power he packs, remember Ricky got rocked bad by Lazcana Dropped HEAVY by Eamen Mgee and was hurt to the body vs Urango amongst other times getting hurt or stopped. He was a force against Tszyu but admitted himself he never tasted the Full power as he got so close and Kostya's power was on the end of his punches To be fair to Hatton he had more than enough to hurt Cotto at 140.

lol...ok. im not sure if ur joking but i guess u get something for going life and death for a decently regarded kendall holt. but the title was just paper. we both kno that.

Burner: at 140 I would still go with Cotto in a war, at 147 its not even close. Cotto kills him. Dempsey: no way Mosley was as washed up as Tszyu. Dude went on to damn near kill Tony and became the #1 welterweight in the world. Margarito was exposed as a cheating f*g but still, Mosleys career wasn't over after he lost to Cotto. i whole heartedly agree that he shane wasnt washed up at all. but why do u think kostya was? he had been on a huuuuge roll. knocking dudes out left n right, including an up n coming, highly regarded judah about a year b4 that fight. if anything, if u compare the two at the time i think most would say that hatton fighting kostya was much more dangerous than cotto fighting mosely. we dont know what kostya had left, he retired. so all i have to go off of is his previous performances. and he did not at all look like he was shot.

to me, those do not rate as good wins. i mean what has randall bailey and ricardo torres done since their losses to cotto? i kno hindsight is always 20/20 but both those fighters have completely disappeared...well bailey lost to urango...but besides that, nothing. chop chop...well i dunno. i like him but hes never been seen as being worth much either. Torres became champ

With those 2 out its: Cotto: Shane Mosley Zab Judah Ricardo Torres Carlos Quintana Paulie Malinagii Joshua Clottey Randall Bailey Chop Chop Hatton: Kostya Collazo Urango Paulie to me, those do not rate as good wins. i mean what has randall bailey and ricardo torres done since their losses to cotto? i kno hindsight is always 20/20 but both those fighters have completely disappeared...well bailey lost to urango...but besides that, nothing. chop chop...well i dunno. i like him but hes never been seen as being worth much either.

Idk Boxeo. I always liked Hatton ina head to head fight with Cotto at 140. The pressure, foot work, power. I think would be too much for Miguel. Cotto had that shaky chin as well at 140. I like Hattons chances alot. Only at the end when he was starting to feel the weight making process did Cotto have chin problems and guess what he pulled through after being hit with FAR Harder punches than Hatton could deliver. People need to remember how tight everything used to be with Miguel - chin to chest, gloves up, perfect form and balance and he always brought his hands back correct after throwing, only later did he get a bit less patient and KO hungry then things got a little bit less organised. His chin was solid too when he did actually get caught clean, Bailey for example was a HUGE Right hand puncher and he bounced one straight off Miguels chin with zero effect. They used to rave about Cotto's technique and respected his chin very much so He dont like pressure but Margs was a Huge guy and a big puncher (with loaded wraps imo!) and even a guy with a freak chin like his he paid the price for pressing Miguel, infact i dont think he's been the same since! Pac pressed but he's not human. If Ricky stormed at Miguel u can bet ur ass Cotto would have some Nasty counters and infighting waiting for him there

Dude, Cotto would have whooped Hatton head to head. The win over Mosley is better then the win over Tszyu. He fought Pac better then Hatton did and last longer. They went to war for 6rds and then he went into survival mode. Fought Clottey (WITH 1 EYE for 9RDS) beat Paulie worst then Hatton even thought Ricky got the stoppage but that was Mcgirt who stopped it. Quintana would have beat Hatton, Cotto destroyed him. Torres at 140 would probably have kicked his ass too. i dont agree. i think both were past prime but they were not too far in decline so that they werent good wins. they were about even to me. as far as quintana, he was a up n coming fighter who got a little hype, about the same as juan urango. never went anywhere. difference quintana got a win over p will. then he immediately got knocked out. to me, those guys are about the same level fighter. jlc and collazo are almost as good as judah and clottey, i would give the edge to cotto tho.

Hatton never fought Cassamayor, and Cotto also beat Mallinaggi an undefeated Mallinaggi. Plus JLC was shot to utter shiit and Cotto has other quality wins on his resume along with those Not having a go i just think its easily Cotto that has the better resume my fault. i meant collazo. i get those two confused on occasion.

Think you mean someone else he never fought Joel. As a whole, JLC, Foreman and Mayorga aren't worth mentioning, those names we should get rid of. With those 2 out its: Cotto: Shane Mosley Zab Judah Ricardo Torres Carlos Quintana Paulie Malinagii Joshua Clottey Randall Bailey Chop Chop Hatton: Kostya Collazo Urango Paulie

why paulie for one guy and not the other? i messed up, i meant to add him. cotto beat the better version n doubt.

not at all...i dont see how ppl say this. its very close kostya tszyu jlc joel casamayor juan urango paulie malignaggi is about equal to shane mosely zab judah carlos quintana joshua clottey the darkhorse is how u rate the foreman win at 154. to me, i wasnt impressed. foreman just isnt that good imo. i dont rate the mayorga win at all. but i can understand an argument for why its better in cottos favor. but is damn near close it isnt nearly as wide as some of u claim.

You gotta mention Cottos other wins as well. Not just his best one imo. Also the Mosley that Cotto fought is better than the Kostya Ricky fought by a mile. Kostya was fighting once a year and Ricky low blowed him and wrestled him tot he ground that was his last fight as well.

Burner, you gotta add Malignaggi for Hatton too, also Urango who stopped Bailey.

U for real!? Cotto's resume shiits all over Hattons not at all...i dont see how ppl say this. its very close kostya tszyu jlc joel casamayor juan urango paulie malignaggi is about equal to shane mosely zab judah carlos quintana joshua clottey paulie m. the darkhorse is how u rate the foreman win at 154. to me, i wasnt impressed. foreman just isnt that good imo. i dont rate the mayorga win at all. but i can understand an argument for why its better in cottos favor. but is damn near close it isnt nearly as wide as some of u claim.
