What I'm about to say may hurt their fans, but Cotto and Taylor were overrated!

    Yeah, when you posted your thoughts on Cotto in the past, we didn't laugh at you when you overrated Cotto. I said, "Everyone is entitled to their opinion" lol.

      You mean Cotto?

          Sometimes a fighter just runs into another fighter who has their number. It has even happened to great fighters. Every fighter can be beaten, there are no exceptions to the rule. If a fighter remains undefeated, it means he just did not try hard enough.

          Norton and Ali
          Barkley and Hearns
          etc.

              When you compared Baldomir to Margarito I laughed (along with others) and came to an obvious conclusion that your thoughts are pretty off track.

                    That's what they said about Barrera when he lost to Junior Jones.

                      Oh, I know that great fighters lose. It just that when we saw Cotto and J.T lose, their flaws were obvious. Even before we saw them lose, we saw their flaws and many did not want to hear about them.
