dont get me wrong here guys, i was all for cotto winning the fight, i was rooting for him, i was a fan until this fight. but after this showing i was just dissapointed. i'm just saying, if cotto takes another step up in opponents hes gonna get knocked out. i'm not hatin on cotto or anything.
Dude that doesnt suprise me.. What I'm about to say is not going to be politically correct and might even get me kicked off of here, but most Puerto Ricans are classless.. Before Tito fought DLH he kept running his mouth off calling DLH" a wimp, and chicken" .. Well guess what Tito you got a decision you didn't deserve in that fight and your reaction after the decision was announced confirmed that.. The look of relief and shock on your face will I not soon forget. Big mouth=No heart. Why wasn't Tito begging for a rematch after Hopkins embarresed him in front of a packed MSG full of Puerto Ricans. Oh yeah I forgot because he ran back to PR like the little bitch that he is. You'll start to see him call out Hopkins after the signs of Hopkins slowing down are clearly visible. Now this little bitch Cotto and his classless handlers acting like animals last night was pathetic.. Don't bank on seeing Cotto in against Mayweather or Gatti anytime soon. He will be a protected fighter. And for those of you who are gonna say stop hatin' or lets all get along I say kiss my ass. I live in NY and have grown up around all different people and ethnicities.. The blacks, Italians, Mexicans, Asians where I live are all stand up people.. They interact with others and respect others. It's the Puerto Ricans that cause all the trouble here.. Now I know why Mexicans can't stand them and tell me not to trust them..
very well said. like i've been saying in the cotto has no chin thread, next time cotto steps up to a big fight hes done.
well you guys are right to, because if cotto wasn't so careless maybe he wouldn't have taken that shot. but in the future hes going to need to take shots like that better.
you guys will eventually pull your heads out of cottos ass when he takes on the top fighters. you all prob think joe mesi is the next big heavy champ too huh. you gotta be able to take those big hits better than he did to stay on top. because the top fighters out there are gonna hit cotto ALOT more than chop did, especially now. floyd will pick him apart, zu or gatti lay him out.
first of all when you talk about someones chin or their beard we're talking about his ability to take a punch, how well they take it means they have a a better chin or like corey sanders, as said by jm lamply, "sanders has one hell of a BEARD" lol loved that.
oh my god, if it weren't for chop not knowing how to finish someone, cottos career was over. cotto took a weak shot that almost required no follow up, poor follow up by chop is why cotto won the fight. did i mention the shot by chops weak arm !!!
no rematch, after that fight i'd rather see cotta get beheaded by gatti. chop chop has to be the worst finisher ever. cotto was so out of it he almost fell over on his own, just one decent punch and it was over. but oh well. i was a cotto fan until this fight, no chin, he won't last against the top guys.
You WERE a Fan until this FIGHT? Man, your just a bandwagon kid who's probably 10 years old and whoever seems to be invincible in the ring your quick to jump on the NUTSACK! Go home kid!
kiss my ass, you know nothing about me and by saying that stuff you just look stupid. just because i'm rooting for someone doesn't mean i have to have my head up his ass till the day i die. i was really dissapointed with cotto, and ALOT of people were after lastnight. i guess god should strike me dead because i was really dissapointed with cotto performance with all his hype. and i think we all know whos nutsack you've been on. cottos chin must have been down there by his nuts with you lastnight during the fight, cause he took a shot to the balls betther than a right hook from a weak punching southpaw. go home yourself nut hugger.
exactly, now that other fighters know he has a weak chin, more fighters are going to go in swinging, instead of cautiously like they've been. cotto has lost his edge. hell chop chop took his legs out without a powershot, you can say its cause hes a southpaw, but the shot that got cotto was a right, which is chops weak arm.
Gatti, Tszyu, PBF can all beat Cotto. They will of course protect Cotto from having to face one of these fighters.
your exactly right. finally some people on here that make sense, and understand that cotto is a good fighter, but all of the above mentioned fighters hit, ALOT harder than chop, and will hit cotto ALOT more than chop did.
i don't think a rematch is any good. cotto would win the next match, he'd be smarter and not go in so fast, he would out gun chop like he did last night. but with that said, the next fighter thats not scared of cotto that can punch will take out cotto.
chop wobbling mayweather was a little different that cotto being out of his mind for a good 45 secs falling backwards onto the ropes after being separated, after only one shot, because chop didn't land anything else.
You did not get me. When you get hit fkush on a tempple and ear area you will get hurt no matter how good you are in a chin or toughness department.Again the only thing that was exposed was Cotto's defense and how he got careless and paid for it. He should not fight Tszyu for any money though. Because than it will be the remake of THE CHICKEN DANCE. :(
i remember ward gettin hit in the ear by gatti in one of they're fights, and it puttin ward down. and we all know ward can take a hell of shot. so your right about getting hit in the temple or ear when you don't see it coming.
hey come on, like i said i'm not trying to hate on the guy, i'm not tryin to start a fight. i really wanted cotto to win tonight. your right a shot to the top of the head can do that, and change around the whole fight. but i'm just saying when the shot like that comes from someone like gatti, zu, or harris, lights out.
sorry, cotto gets no props for that fight. if you give props to fighters who get hit once, and have a full almost min to recover without getting hit again, what are you giving props for? and if your going to give props, chop gets them, for taking more shots from a heavier guy.
