HML88

the idea that mexicans always beat the puerto ricans is bascially 100%LIE. in 2008 before the cotto-margarito bout they had been over 60 world titles between Mex/PR and ricans (dont exclude pr from new york like benitez,laporte, camacho etc) had won 44 times and mexico has won 22-23 times. since then idk the number now but those are the facts.

chop chop was once a world champion. he is 2-6 since the cotto fight. and his last win was 3 yrs ago. TIME TO GO! u had a nice career where fighters would give anything to do what u have done but your time has expired

People who are gona say he had a solid career is ****ing retarded. look whos he fought and beaten. sad and scary part is he should of been better. and he cant be broke. cause in dec 08 i believe his ex wife idk stole 125,000 from his bank account and her name is not on it. and he never gave the permission to draw the money. he sued the bank i believe. i kno he did say when he turns 50. hes done no more boxing.

when your basically eating blood. you cant breathe throughtout your nose its very differcult to perform. margarito is the man thats all. styles make fights. cotto did wat he could. but the man was too strong and big. there is always gona be that 1 guy you cant beat. he will always have your number. in every decade. there are great fighters. each great fighter has no man that can beat him. thats just boxing

why u think cotto was so fast to jump on the catchweight of 145. he even said it himself its not a problem cuz ill be entering the ring 8-10lbs more. it wont be a problem for him. IN 5 out of 8 bouts at WW cotto has come under 147. so 1 lb is nothing

i had it even 4-4. but in all fairness. its very differcult to train for a guy like augustus for 2weeks. gato was suppose to fight gavin reese, he broke his nose pulled out of the fight. then rodriquez who moved from LW to Jrwelter he pulls out. then here comes the drunken master a record that is misleading probably the best gate keeper in the last 20 yrs. look at cotto vs torres. torres was 2 weeks notice guy and look wa happen. so i have to give the benifit of the doubt.

we will see when williams faces cotto. yes everyone will doubt cotto again like always. being hit by quintana is different from cotto. and once cotto chops that tree with those body shots. we shall see.

The reason why tito doesnt like cotto cuz around 4-5 yrs ago. he kept on getting that hes the next trinidad. all he said was im not trinidad, gomez, benitez. Im miguel cotto and i want to write my own history. and Tito being the fake ignorant hick that he is took it up the ass. and since then holds a grudge. Tito is jealous of cotto. cuz 1.tito never filled the full 20,000 plus at MSG 2.Everytime Tito stepped up in class wheather it was DLH, Bhop or winky or Jones a fight where it was pretty even going in HE LOST! In front of 18,000 at MSG BHOP took him to skool. DLh was taking him to school in the 1st 8 rounds. winky just put the cherry on top of the cake. cotto fought mosley a fight where alot of ppl were picking shane, cotto beat him. cotto's lost but he was actually in the fight. it was entertaining. fight of the yr candidate. all of tito's losses he got dominated not even in the fight. plus cotto has a military backround where smiling is a weakness as well as laughing. thats why hes soo serious alot of the time and he dont trust alot of ppl. JuanMa is heading in the direction of greatness but i hope hes doesnt think about being the next tito. Write your own history and be yourself not wat other ppl want u to be

nobody should complain about this kid's style. hes a world champ at 19. 19! thats some serious skills. and lopez is no bum by no means. and no morris east wasnt undefeated he already loss once maybe twice

everybody talks about his ko loss to foreman and his HW run. nobody talks about moorer ****ing dudes up at LHW. KOin dudes left and right. ill put my money on him against ANY LHW in the last 15 yrs except for my boy RJJ Jr and maybe bhop when michael was moviated and trained, he was a bad mother****a but at HW he gained bad weight and got really lazy cuz there really is no weight requirement at HW

cotto-clottey. on the eve of PR parade at MSG. clottey lives and trains in the boogie down bronx. hes got a following there. it makes perfect sense plus it would be for WBO/IBF titles make it happen

I kept telling many people over here (family and friends). As soon as Cotto lost, some wrote him off as a loser, a nobody, a sucker. Truth was, while Tito didn't get as battered as Cotto whenever he lost (Hopkins, Wright, Jones), whenver Tito lost a fight, he lost it convincingly.Tito's first loss was worse than Cotto's. Trinidad was embarrassed (and I bet surprised) by Hopkins' boxing ability, and it wasn't like De la Hoya where it was just boxing and light flurries, Hopkins throughout the course of the fight got in some monster punches and hurt Tito on a few occasions...but here's the thing: the fight was boring (pretty lopsided) and Tito never EVER gave us the impression that he could win this fight as it was being carried out (save for his money punch) but after 5 or 6 rounds I think many gave up hope. Then, as if the embarrassment wasn't enough, Tito was sent to the canvas in the final round in a monsterous knockdown. He got up, but he was out of it and his corner stopped the fight. He was embarrassed, got a TKO loss (on top of the fact that he would've lost it REGARDLESS of a knockdown or no knockdown) and the man who beat him...was a guy...who went to his country in San Juan...and threw the Puertorrican flag on the floor. It was like having your bike stolen, sending your big brother out to beat him up, and then your brother being beat up in the process...the bully got the last laugh. The Cotto/Margarito fight, while I am Puertorrican, was an entertaining fight. Not as pointless action hiding incompetence, BOTH fighters in the fight had their moments, it was a boxer/puncher match-up, but the boxer could actually punch. What we got for 11 rounds was back-and-forth, give-and-take candidate for fight of the year. Cotto actually gave us the sense that he would win this fight, even if Margarito was closing in during the later rounds. Cotto landed big shots, which was why everyone was talking about Antonio's chin the next day...at work, at school, in the University, everywhere. Margarito got in piercing uppercuts to the body that was subtlely hurting Cotto and the Puertorrican star fought until there was nothing else to give. The only bad aspect about this fight would probably be that Cotto's first loss was in TKO fasion in a fight with nationalistic implications...which is why, looking back in history, Gómez's first loss was painfully upsetting, given the style of the loss, the nationality of his opponent and the surprise of it all considering Gómez had 32 straight knockouts when he fought him. Bottom line: Tito was a tremendous champion and I respect him for it, he was a big sensation back when I was still junior high, but his whenever he loses he doesn't even seem to put up a fight and I cringe at the fact that he probably did more numbers (pay-per-view) here in Puerto Rico for his fight with Jones compared to Cotto's fight with Mosley 2 months earlier. :poke: Cotto lost his last fight, but anyone would be ignorant to say that he didn't put up a great fight and gave a concerted effort to win it. What puertorricans and mexicans got was en entertaining fight, great two way action and a match that definitely lived up to the hype surrounding it. I agree with everything homie. its nothing personal with tito. Being a NuYorkrican im proud of men that represent me. All cotto was i wana write my own history. he had his time. its mine now. thats selfish? No its the truth. the only with i dont agree with you is the gomez. Gomez came to the weighin 4lbs over and gave everyone the impression that he didnt care. even through he had his moments, gomez-sanchez wasnt even close and was put on the ropes and mat motionless. I dont think Puerto Rico hasnt forgave gomez for that.

ur highness (i wuped cotto while sparring)"la gata" figueroa cant even get a convincing win after talking all that garbage about cotto....bet u he pulls a "i got robbed". after that bs u pulled, u could be fighting a mexican or filipino & i still wont back ur fake boricua ass... y por siaca soy 100% de caguas puneta, y me cago en la madre al que no le guste.....este mamabitch me cai mal....me recuerda al "macho" camacho el cabron, but without the skills lol "yo si que no tengo pelos en la lengua loco" relax you ****ing jibaro. another ignorant hick from the hills. its a shame. get your facts before you talk. the fight was taken on short notice, thats why he wasnt fighting in his natural weight class, and hes fighting a 6'0 "prospect" thats highly talked about from freddie roach. gato is 5'6 and if you saw the fight he was pushing the pace, throwing and landing more than halloway.

the idea that mexicans always beat the puerto ricans is bascially 100%LIE. in 2008 before the cotto-margarito bout they had been over 60 world titles between Mex/PR and ricans (dont exclude pr from new york like benitez,laporte, camacho etc) had won 44 times and mexico has won 22-23 times. since then idk the number now but those are the facts.

he ask judah if he wanted 5 mins and judah? you wanna take the 5 mins? he shook his head no and kept fighting. i thought we were over that.

All Cotto does is hide behind a "20-25lb" weight advantage..!!! Why not call Cotto out on it?? He's a bigger drainer than Williams....HBO won't even weigh him on fight night anymore. if you read my other posts i did mention cotto having a big advantage at 140. hes is not a bigger drainer than williams. he doesnt look like a 3rd world county kid like williams and besides williams is 6'1 and walk around 185. cotto is 5'7 and walks around 170-175. cotto would look like a pancake if he walkaround the weight williams does. when he fought urkal they weigh him at 159 so relax woman. and ill say it again having williams come in at 18-20lbs is a disgrace. if im bob arum and if williams and cotto fight ill put that in the contract nomore than 15lbs.

Pascal and froch working together. well Can't BEAT THEM.....JOIN THEM!

i just think its emmauel agustus. he will make any1 look bad. its his style. look at all those world champions and contenders that he gave hell. style makes fights. and hes 1ticky son of gun. lesson be learn. to all the pros in the jrwelter and welter div. never pick emmauel as a 2 week replacement he will make you look bad

it so easy to talk shit on the web. you cant get hurt. ****ing chumps i swear. talk about cotto-clottey. 2 tops guys fighting eachother. and we all bitch as fans that the best dont fight best. well 2 top 5 welterweights going but no you guys wana talk about bomb testing in PR and other bunch of bull shit. ****ing pathetic

well gato does comment on boxingscene. so those of you who call him a bum and he ant shit why dont you message him cuz i kno DAMN well none of you have the balls to say things like that as a man to his face. another thing he was KOed back in april not last month and he was a sparring partner for cotto for the judah bout and we all seen the result. the truth will come out eventually gato will respond i think but i think as respect for him to his up coming fight we should wait after the fight to get his take.

how much did williams weighin going into the fight? the way he punched tonight he must had 20-25 lb weigh advantage which is unfair and if so quintana's team better protest.

berto should be willing to give up his WBC title to fight shane mosley. its more money to fight mosley than collazo. but if he vacants it then collazo will fight #2 contender for that belt. and if berto loses to mosely? he will be beltless and will have to fight collazo

who ever feels hugo got robbed is either retarded or didnt even see the fight. ivan was putting a boxing 101 display on hugo. hugo didnt even win more than 2 rounds. even commentator hernendez a true mexican world champion even felt ivan was pretty much dominating the fight

mire wele b , el gato is a bum & always will be bum....sigue abogando por la cascara que empezo el chisme de que tumbo a cotto o que y que le dio problemas...to esa mierda fue pa buscarse publicidad para su pelea y su carrera a costo de junito. si tu quieres baquear al chapeao ese tira palante...pero en par de anos de ahora cuando se sepa la cascara que fue...YO SOY EL QUE SE VA A REIR y pa que sepas wele bi..o soy jibaro y orgulloso... bullshit. gato stood quiet, he didnt say anything about the situation. if you ever boxed before the sayin goes "what goes in the gym stays in the gym". gato had to much class for that. the one who acted unprofessional was miguel. all he had to say was, we decided to go in another direction nothing personal and i wish him nothing but the best. but no he threw him under the bus. gato said that after cotto said the things about him. stop being a delusional cotto fan and get the facts straight. typical hick move

figueroa is closes thing to pacman. hes 5'6 ,quick, doesnt punch for power like manny but gives more angles and movement than pacman and hes a southpaw. idk where you find another pacman theres only 1 in the world

ALL THAT SHIT talk. ALL THE HYPE from all the english fans. ALL they DID was RUN their mouths about how great he was. ALL HYPE just ended in 51 seconds. HOW SWEET IT IS.

congrats to just DR? he was born in DR his hometown is Brooklyn,NY for a long time now. Its a win for DR and BK stand the **** up! to go to your opponet's hometown and beat him the world title win is even more sweeter.

Keith i do disagree about clinching. maybe now after the lost, if there is a rematch, he might clinch when on the inside. but its just not in cotto's nature to hold, is to punch back. its easy for us on the outside to scream hold him. its not cotto. he punches back. margo does the same way, boom boom did it. pryor etc. their mentality is punch back.

the last person i wana hear from is margarito. a cheating slime ball. Roids is 1 thing. everybody gets on athletes when take them. atleast they arent hurting anybody physcially. what he did was ****ing criminal and God knows how many times he did this. boxing is dangerous already. all it takes is 1 shot and to load ur hands? sick **** him and trainer he should gotten more than a yr

cotto has only been on PPV once? seriously who are you ppl. your not boxing fans. cotto has been on ppv more than you think. his 1st Headlined PPv on HBO was against judah, then mosley then margarito. 1st headlined PPV was back in 2003. the guy has been HBO ppv undercards like since his 5th pro fight. ****ing moron.
