The Cotto hype - do you buy it?

[C'MONMANG']

remember Oscar fought mayweather at 154 in mayweather's first and only fight at that weight. Also keep in mind Oscar had the say on all factors in that fight, gloves, ring was shortened (ridiculous but true) and he had the bigger purse.
And age doesn't count if you don't compared it. Age difference is what is most important, in the case of oscar and floyd, they had a 4 year gap, and floyd was smashed by all of you here because of a 4 year difference, cotto had a 9 year difference to shane and that doesn't seem to matter as much. talk about being fair huh?

I believe the catch weight was 150-152.. who cares...oscar is a part time fighter.. you suck btw

Cotto has proven already that he more then just hype.

Also, Alfonso Gomez is a stay active/tune-up fight.

Cotto deserves praise for bein a hell of a fighter, but whenever a good, exciting fighter is undefeated, people get carried away with the huggin **** and make him out to be a monster. Cotto's good enough to be more than just hype, but he ain't unstoppable.

no one has ever said he is... y'all hear what you want to hear even when no one is saying what you are hearing.

I believe the hype!


Now you wanna talk about lame, how about fighting a guy who was ready for the geriatric ward and then topping it off against a midget who constantly forced him to the ropes where he needed the divine intervention of a referee who was clearly biased. I won't name names though, that would be mean

I wasn't implying anybody ever said word for word "Cotto is unstoppable". I just meant give the guy credit for bein a good fighter but don't overrate him.

I dont think Cotto is all hype but i dont believe he ships too much punishment but i guess thats what makes him more exciting.
