Why does Floyd get hate but Cotto doesnt?

[Gareth Ivanovic]

i hate the yankees because of their owner the guy is a n *******.

Yeah I don't like Steinbrenner much either. Plus I don't like the Yankees because they just have more money than anybody else and buy whatever player they want for whatever price they want.

I didn't read the post but it's simple.. Cotto is fighting more then two times a year, putting on entertaining and exciting fights, puts a 110 percent effort in what he does, wants to fight anyone they throw infront of him and isn't ****y or arrogant.. he is Mr. Cotto Roboto.

but Cotto hasnt beaten any of the top WW either. Now I'll give it to him, he is the person that should be next in line for Floyd. But why the hate for Floyd and not for cotto? Neither of them have beat Cintron, clottey, williams, or margs. the top 4 consensus WWs

Shane Mosely was highly regarded at the time they fought. People were picking Shane as the guy to dethrone Mayweather. In addition, style-wise it was a very risky fight for Cotto, given Mosely's pedigree as a boxer.

i just think cotto is the most protected champion out there. He is a dirty fighter, his best fights were over an old washed up zab, old and past his prime Shane and the after torres he fought nothing but feather fisted fighters and yes Quintana is included along with Paulie, Urkal, and Branco. never gave Torres a rematch (and yes torres did ask for one). I mean what has this guy done to be in the position to be rated as high as he is? What, look good in the past year and a half against old washed up fighters? Mosely beat Vargas 2X and was on his way to losing he first one. Then he beat Collazo who lost to ricky. Whoopdi ****in doo. Zab lost to Floyd, Baldy, and lloked like **** his comeback fight on espn2. I just dont like Cotto because it is obvious to see that they are hyping him up to get one HUGE payday and make their money. I just think he is all hype when when he doesnt deserve it. They say Floyd hasnt beatin any top WW as in Kermit, Margs, Clottey, and etc. Well who Has Cotto beatin out of them? No one. But people are too biased too see it.


Out of all the of the welterweights, Cotto has not beaten any.
Paul Williams
Clottey
Margarito
Cintron

Why does Floyd get hate when Cotto doesnt? they say Floyd hasnt fought any top WW, well Cotto hasnt either. Tell me the truth, is it because of Floyd Additude?

I'm a Mayweather fan and even I think this is a buncha crap. See.....It's not that Cotto should be critisized just like floyd IT'S MORE LIKE.....neither one should be criticized for what they're doing.

One guy is going by what the company tells him and the other is doing by what the cash register in his brain tells him. Simple as that.

but thats what they wanted us to believe, mosley is a boxer. When have you seen Mosely ever out box anyone. He fought a slugfest with DLH while DLH tried to box. He lost to 2 boxers, winky and vernon. He is not a boxer, even manny said that during the fight. that shane is not a real boxer and doesnt have an authoritative jab. he isnt a boxer, and when he did box is was at lower weights against smaller shorter opponents.

Did u see what he did to zab,Quintana and paulie? he not only beat them he destroyed them heres a quote of Quintana what he said before the last round when he didnt come out "im dead , im dead" then they stopped the fight and thats coming from a gd boxer and a puerto rican the guy beat williams for gd sakes hes a gd boxer.
paulie got his ass handed to him and looked like he needed to go hospital.
Zab got steam rolled over a few low blows but zab has low blowed people before aswel zab got killed and didnt dare ask for a rematch.

I think its because Cotto has steadily increased his level of comp. and has consistently displayed a willingness to fight whoever is out there. When asked who he wants to fight, Cotto always says that he'll fight whoever his management puts in front of him, and that he is simply concerned with training and performing at his best. Also, I think there is a sense that Cotto and his people are working towards making the big fights (Mosely-Cotto was in fact a big Welterweight fight), but it is seldom easy to put the big matchups together. He appears primed to fight the winner of Cintron-Margarito after Gomez, and he likely would've faced Marg. by now if it wasn't for the WBO moving to strip Marg if he didn't fight PW.

Floyed on the other hand fights only handpicked opponents, and there is the perception that he is intent on avoiding risks in order to keep his 0 intact. While it can be said that the ODLH fight was a bit of a risk, the risk:reward ratio was clearly enough to compensate for the risk involved.

The Cintron or Margarito fight aren't for certain yet.. he has said that if Mayweather offers him the fight he would take it instead of the other match ups..
