    ive have seen clips of Cotto getting hurt against Corley but i aint seen the full fight ,but from what ive seen the part where he get tagged by the ropes he looked hurt quite badly against Corley i agreee

    but if u notice both those fights were right before Cotto moved upto 147 ,so i would be inclined to believe his weight making issues had a big part to play in why he was hurt in both fights ,i aint saying his chin is granit but it is good enough at 147 to stand upto Floyds punches ,i know that is a dangerous thing to say [Hatton] LOL
    No offense, but you yell at the executioner for making "excuses" against Castillo and said Floyd hasn't gotten any better, but yet you just dd the same thing for Cotto with Corley.

    I think Mayweather and Cotto both improved since those fights, but seriously...

      Cotto is a great fighter to watch.

      But he doesnt have Hatton speed or footwork and he had to take enough to get in.

      I think hatton is a better Cotto just smaller, Cotto is so slow Mayweather would pot shot the sheet outta him.

      And i like Cotto.

        yeah both fighter have improved

        the only reason i said it was a load of excuses is because "the executioner " was coming across like a real biased Floyd fan IMO ,so i thought i would try & wind him up a bit cause i know how Sensitive Floyd fans get when u mention J L Castillo LOL ,and the proof was in the pudding he hit me up with a list of reaosn why Floyd looked bad in that fight excuses really

        its commonsense he has improved i would be an idiot to deny that ,but it still happened wether it was last year or 5 years ago

          Hatton struggled against Collazo ,Urango

          what is Hatton best performance

          Mauling/Wrestling Tszyu to death that is not Boxing as far as im concerned ,Cotto is slow he did'nt look to slow against Mosley

          Hatton has great Footwork he got caught coming in straight line against Mayweather & he followed him around the ring all night wihtout cutting it down

            BTW i never said Floyd aint improved since then ,i did however say that Executioner was making a load of excuses which he was

            but if he had just made a post saying he has improved since then i would'nt have diagreed but the fact he wrote a damn essay of excuses

            hardly being hypocrtical when i never even said "Floyd hasn't gotten any better"

              I disagree, that is definitely boxing, but we are getting used to hyperactive refs.

              Hatton has great footwork and used to use angles coming in and variety of punches. That vanished against Mayweather.

              Oscar has a great left hook, that vanished against Mayweather.

              Zab has great movement, that vanished as soon as Mayweather started pressuring him.

              Cotto is a great body puncher, excellent at cutting off the ring... see the trend?
