Dont know what you mean by potential? Your insinuating as if Cotto and Trinidad underperformed.

Cotto gave all he had and full prepared getting the most out of potential for this fight.

Trinidad Lineal in 2 weight classes and lost to a HOF while trying to become the Lineal of a 3rd. He lost 3x to HOF's who were all naturally bigger with superb boxing skills coming up multiple weight classes. If Trinidad would've won against Hopkins he would've immediately have tried to fight then p4p#1 RJJ. Trinidad's career is a testament in attempting to get the most out of ones potential.

Yes...he will never be the same after his first loss and has already reached his peak.

Well he hasnt talked about retiring like Tito did after his first and second loss, so i guess that's a good sign.

trinidad did live up to his expections. what are you talking about

Tito didnt live up to his potential dude could potentially been in ODLH's shoes but instead seemd to take the easy road out!

I predict a downward spiral from here on out for Miguel

Not to mention Ttio is mentioned with greats but not regarded as one IMHO1

Cotto will do more in my eyes than Ttio. Tito is a lazy ass. He got detroyed by hopkins and never did **** afterwards except beat mayorga, loose to wright and jones. Cotto will accomplish more because I dont see him ever moving up to 170lbs. after fighting at welterweight. Only lazy asses that dont have determination do that.
