Is Miguel Cotto Top 3 P4P Most Hated Boxer?

Ahhhhh fugg! All this Cotto hate makes me sick man! Why does everyone hates so much on Miguel? WTF? Shot, Bum, Done, Ducker, No Chin, No Stamina, No Power, Slow, Fights No-Names, Runner, Kneer', the list is endless.... Miguel is a four time champion on three diferent weight classes, 37-2-30KOs, WBO, WBC and WBA Champion, 78.94% of his fight won by KO, Olympian, top tier PPV attraction, top 15 P4P all throught his carreer, likely future HOF, and the list goes on and on. He is a very proud who carries his colors till the end, a true profesional and will put on the show each and everytime YET he gets no respect from most, and seems that on this message board he is one of the top 3 P4P most "hated" boxer. I just dont see why is this? Its because of his heritage? Race? Accomplishments or "lack" of? Envy? What is it? I think that he deserves quite a bit more credit and respect. Miguel Cotto has earned his this. A true profesional, pasionate and dedicated boxer who is true to this family and the sport. And yes, I'm a fam of Miguel, but not a blind fan. I respect him for who he is in and out the ring and his accomplishments. Post on, let us know VALID reasons why you dislike/hate on Miguel or why you are a fan or like him.

have nothing but mad respect for Cotto but the only thing I can say is that he was saved from Margarito in their second bout man i don't care what anybody says. What a coincedence tha fight was stopped after one of the best rounds for margo... look I hate marg and am glad he lost he's a disgrace but when was the last time a bout was stopped due to swelling??? Margo fought with a broken ****1n bone for christ' sake in his pacquiao fight and no one ever even thought of stopping the fight... but whatever, I was happy for cotto but not so happy with the NY athletic commission cuz quite frankly that bumb margo shouldn't have even been aloud to fight.

I love Cotto becuse eventhough he has a couple tough losses, he doesn't back down from anyone! He doesn't take the path of least resistance for his career like other fighters to protect there record!

And it's a damn good one. Ask anyone that is a respected boxing guru about Cotto. Sure they will tell you he's really good or was but not great. Well most at least. Pac and Mayweather are great. Cotto isn't. That's just the bias in you thinking he's more than what he is. Just a sore butthurt Margarito puta. I know this hurts you but Cotto is a sure hall of famer who'll be remembered as one of the best of his generation while Cheato will always be an asterisk on Cotto's record.

Some dudes on this site are just blind haters. Take Mr. Fantastic who is likely King Cotto hater #1 who post nothing but non-sense and rides nothing but FMJr. and Pacquiao's nutts from begining to end.

I've seen a few people hate on Cotto, but the general idea I get is that he's one of the more liked guys around here...

Cotto always struck me as a good fighter but not great. He exciting to watch but he still seems like a left handed pressure fighter with decent boxing skills. He still has problems adapting and he still cant fight going backwards( Please dont mention the 2nd margarito fight. He boxed going backwards for a good 3-4 rounds and then started blatantly running backwards. )

Cotto isn't. That's just the bias in you thinking he's more than what he is. Despite my biasedness, I've never said Cotto was great, and I might never. And I've never said Pac or Mayweather are great either, but I will if and when I have seen enough to warrant in my eyes that they are great. My eyes, not some so called guru's. What is that anyway, what is a "respected boxing guru"? What's the criteria for great? Greatness like beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Yes I have read some Pac/Floyd fanatic stuff. But see the difference is that they are both GREAT fighter/boxer. Cotto isn't and never will be. That is all subjective to your viewpoints/criteria. And now a fighters subjective greatness, or lack thereof, makes his fans comments less/more outlandish? SMH

Contradictory statement by a mindless hater. Just another bitter Brit, frustrated by loss of empire and dissolution of the UK. It's ok. We have space for you guys over here, bro. We still like you. :popcorn: LMBO...That was funny.

It's his stans that I dislike that take it way beyond Pactard/Flomo level of stupidity. I don't think that is possible. Have you not been reading the Pac/May posts? Biased, yes, Cotto's fans, including myself can be biased, but nothing close to what I have read from May/Pac fans. He is the top PR fighter right now and I think that fuels some of the irrational posts from his fans, yet despite that I really do not think we are on the level of others especially Pacquiao's and Mayweather's fans.

The way he was overrated in the mid 2000's, his dumb fanbase. Worst fans after Pactards. He's actually far from hated. And even now because of his wins over Mayorga and Margarito, he is once again being overrated. How is he the #1 JMW? I see Lara, Williams, Dzinzuruk, even Canelo all beating him. He'd be lucky to survive against Kirkland and Angulo. I'd put him over Bundrage, Rodriguez, Martirosyan and he can outbox Molina. But he's definitely not #1.

Hatton/Floyd at 140. Williams at 147. Just about every top guy at 154. That "he fights everyone" is such a bull**** myth I've exposed several times already. This is true. At 147 he fought almost everybody but not quite. Just because he got his a55 handed to him by two guys doesn't make him an old school fighter who fights everybody the way some people like to make it sound. To answer the original question: No he's not one of the top 3 most hated boxers in boxing. Number one is easily Floyd Mayweather followed Manny Pacquiao, Amir Kahn, and Antonio Margarito.

I like that he is always willing to fight the best guys out there he fought everybody in his weight from 140 to 147 and he's doing his thing now at 154.

He's not really hated at all. Most of them are dumb enough to believe he stands a chance with Pacquiao in a rematch. Contradictory statement by a mindless hater. Just another bitter Brit, frustrated by loss of empire and dissolution of the UK. It's ok. We have space for you guys over here, bro. We still like you. :popcorn:
