    Totally agree! Cotto is damn impressive and still so young. I like Spinks, he is a technician (runs in the family) he just doesnt have alot of power (but he sure made Mayorga look silly ) as for Mitchell I'm not very objective; I dont much like him or his style, but I can give him his due credit; he has alot of natural talent and maybe I'll change my opinion after he fight's Kostya Tszyu again. It could happen!!

      Could anyone tell me a little about each one pleeeeeease. Or whom ever you know about.

      Sharmba Mitchel
      Migel Cotto
      Corey Spinks


      Just a little about thier style, strenghs, weakness, character.
      Oh, and of course who is the best!
      Thanx
      Sharmba Mitchell- Slick boxer, no real punching power. Very fast hands and feet. He has been held back by a bum knee in his career. I dont really think he has the heart in his biggest fight against Tszyu he quit when the going got tough. He will probably beat Tszyu in the rematch in less than a months, but not because he is better because Tszyu is on the downside.

      Miguel Cotto- "The Next Big Thing" at least thats what Top Rank is hoping for. Despite what someone tells you he IS NOT a World Champion. The World Championship at 140 will be settled between Tszyu and Mitchell later on in the year. Picks his shots very well, best punch is his short left hook. Not really a big power puncher, but mnore of a wear you down type fighter.

      Corey Spinks- A slick slick boxer and has a very boring style if you dont like watching those type of fighters. Comes from a boxing family uncle Micheal was an all time great Light Heavyweight and his dad used to be the Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the World. Great fundamentals, defense and fast hands.

        Sharmba Mitchel

        The only time he's fought at world class he retired himself, people rate him as number 1 at light welter but he's been less than convincing against fighters like Stewart(Hatton destroyed) and Tackie(Tszyu made him look silly)


        Migel Cotto

        Pure class, looked trouble by Ndou's strength a couple of times but other than that his displays have been near perfect. He has the ability to beat any fighter at light welter.

        Corey Spinks

          Cotto is a power puncher...not so much 1 punch KO...but a few and you're ****ed.

              Yes, but it's the lightly regarded WBO belt. While he is a World Champion, if he wants recognition for it, he's going to have to fight someone like Mitchell or Tzyu. Not that Pinto is a pushover or anything.

                IMO all the belts are worth the same...
