    Cotto had flu?

    I just read in an Arum video that Cotto had the flu when he fought Urkal. Does kind of sound like an excuse, and remember ARUM said this, NOT COTTO. So Cotto or his team didnt make any excuses fo the not so good perfomance. Cotto still won so it doesnt really matter.

    But what got me thinking is I remember in the post fight inteview Cotto like almost threw up on Larry Merchant lol (exageration). So maybe he did really have the flu. Its a possibility.

    Sick? Perhaps...

    The flu? No way he could have fought like that for that long and not suffered any ill effects...

    This is Bob Arum Spin Control...though I think people are overreacting to Cotto's "subpar" performance. I thought he did just fine.

          At the weigh in Cotto looked 100% fine. Not that these things can't happen quick, but I seriously doubt he could have been too ill.
          At least not as ill as Green who had like 45 different bacterial and virus infections thoughout his entire body!

              I thought Cotto did fine for the type of fighter he fought and all those damn headbutts.

                nah man I didnt think Cotto looked to good at the weigh in. He also seemed a little weight drained which he shouldnt be at 147.

                So do you know Miranda or are you just a huge nuthugger? Not being ****** with option 2 im just curious. Im guessing you know him?

                    Cotto did told a local newspaper that he got sick the night before he fight but that once he stepped in the ring he forgot about it and didn't feel it.
