Nah if he comes back he will be good.. He would like to get some money and he knows from now on he needs to knockdown his fighters or he'll be seen as the crappy fighter. We'll see it's not too long from now.
Paquiao will be in a shock and the rest of the world. Paquiao could not stay with joshua the way cotto did.
I agree too. Clottey has a crazy defense and can take punches aswell.. He shut my mouth saturday lol.
If fighters were to give rematch to every fighter they defeated.. There coudn't be new fights.. I would say that Clottey and Collazo will need to find a reason why these fights should happen again, just as beat a couple or something :P
am I the only Pacquiao fan who doesn't think Pac has as much as a chance as everyone claims to beat Cotto?
I think Cotto is way too dangerous of a fighter for Pac. People criticize Cotto for playing survival mode during times, but I can picture Cotto countering Pacquiao a lot...maybe worse than JMM did in the first fight.
It would be crazy for both sides. I think everyone agrees that Cotto has too many flaws.. One flaw that I could clearly see on Pac is that he puts too much in his punches making him unstabble at times. We all saw how smart cotto is against that, loves unbalanced stuff hehe. Now Pac is not that good resisting body punches but he's fast as @#@f. I think Cotto =/ Pacquiao would be crazy to watch. All I could wish is that they don't hurt each other accidentally in this fight.
Manny isn't too small. He has huge nuts. :) Give the boy his props.
Sugar Ray once came in at 157.5 for a light heavy fight. Pacquiao has huge balls and he's coming to win.
Well, cotto shoudn't have any problems hitting them then :)
I think this will be a close one.. If the weight is >145 then I would say that my boy could lose by decision. Pacman knows what he's doing.. We will see what it will be all about.. nothing official yet.
You now.. It doesn't really matter anymore.. Margarito could beat floyd and Pacquiao when he gets back and it still going to be in history he was a cheater.. Won't go to the hall of famer.. Even mexicans hate him right now, put a bad name on their belief. I'm in alaska there's only like 30 thousand mexicans here sorry.. About 5 when I watched the fight this saturday two from mex visiting family.. I said that because I'm puertorican and I don't know if he's loved or not.
I recommend you watching a couple of Cotto fights and who he fought. Cotto has and has won with faster boxers. I still see this fight as a crazyness for Cotto if he go under 145.
Wow... I don't think that Cotto talk about this anymore.. All the best fighters have lost somewhere in their career for numerous of reasons. Look at Margarito itself people cry over him and has 6 losses. I am a fan of Cotto even losing to Margarito and that says he's not scared of anyone. Cotto's a warrior don't care if you're 5'11, bigger than him, everyone scare of a fighter. He will just fight anyone and if you believe a defeat is bad, I can clearly call you gayweather.
March 31, 1973: I never thought of losing, but now that it's happened, the only thing is to do it right. That's my obligation to all the people who believe in me. We all have to take defeats in life.

I don't know everyone has an opinion on this. Quitting or not I hope he continue to fight. IF you feel you don't have to continue the fight to amuse thousands of people then why are you doing a sport where having fans it's a must to make money? But, I respect any decision cuz he didn't quit in the second round or anything..
Cotto got a very nasty eyebrow cut in the third round but still continued to fight until and finished the fight despite the doctor threatening to stop the fight. Cotto showed the heart of a champion and nobody can deny that. He may not have won the fight in the eyes of some peeps here because the fight was close and could have gone eiter way but for me, miguel angel cotto is a boxing champion who deserves respect.
wow do you have a PHD, you are so smart dude... thank you for your comment. :)
I could tell it was crap and I don't understand Spanish.
Hay gente que piensa que no sonrio lo suficiente, que soy demasiado serio.
There's people that thinks that I don't smile enough, that I am too serious.
Quizas es que no hay demasiadas cosas que me hagan reir...
Maybe there isn't that many things that make me laugh...
trato de buscar algo en la television para reirme, pero solo dan porquerias.
I try to find things on the TV to make me laugh, but they just have useless stuff.
tarde o temprano, algo encontrare.
Sooner or later, I will find something.
hey Cotto! te consegui lo ultimo para entrenar.
Hey Cotto! I found you something to train.

Some of the bests boxers are using these type of technology in their preparation is the last thing in the avenue and costs. An eye in the face...
Listo para la sorpresa?
Ready for the surprise?
Taraaan!

Damn! If that’s how the robot ended, Just imagine what’s about to be of the real Joshua Clottey!
Fin
End
Id of thought fighting through such adversity (the cut) would of enhanced his rep.
I wished he stopped the fight and win even by that many poinst so ppl in here would shut the hell the fk up by a cheater who got knockdown by a jab .lol
Wow that's cool you get to hangout with your bro! Enjoy, I'll be watching this fight with a couple of mex friends. They like Cotto at least :). Wish I could be watching this with my bro but he's in PR I'm in AK.. :(
shane just telling the truth. imo cotto is the better fighter but margarito got his number.
He's saying the truth in some way but changing his prior statements shows that 1) dumb enough to remember 2) just making some show or news to get a fight. I'll go for the second option. I'll explain something to you, I am 5'6 148-151 pounds. Little huh? Currently in the Air Force. When I have a m16 and heavy weapons around me I feel superior than a giant. Hope you get it.
That would help..
Nah but if Clottey's durable enough, I think he has more then enough in his arsenal to get to that soft chin.
Will see man, I called Cotto winning in the 9.. :)
Yeah Mosley of all the people would know the plaster had nothing to do with it. Oh, never mind he got it removed I remember now. Mosley wants to get the fight, I want mosley to get whoever he wants. I think he earned it. But, trying to show himself as the badass that beat Margarito and putting Cotto down so he could get the fight.. I don't know he really wants to lose the respect of his fans, including Cotto. Way to get some promotion old man.
