      tito has a great chin. i don't understand where this tito's chin is shaky stuff comes from. tito gets knocked down early in his fights at time but he's never really hurt. it took a HOF middleweight to ko him and it was more of an accumulative/stamina-type ko.

      tito's skills are very underrated. he's been outboxed by hopkins , jones , wright and de la hoya. who hasn't been outboxed by those guys?
      Thing thing with Margarito though is, he had to walk through Bombs before actually getting to Cotto. If Tito can somehow walk through alot of those punches on a constant basis for about 6 to 7 rounds when Cotto starts to tire and survive, he has a pretty good chance of catching Cotto with something big. But for the fact that Tito is very easy to hit, he might very well tire well before Cotto and end up getting Knocked out in the later rounds.

        that's the only chance cotto has of koing tito is if he gets tired but ANYONE can get koed through exhaustion. look at foreman during the ali fight. george's beard is solid.

        while cotto and tito both are fresh it's more likely tito knocks cotto out than the other way around.

        tito is better skilled than marg and faster than marg. yes tito has looked one dimensional in his fights but comeon that's against oscar de la hoya (the best oscar ever looked 'til he decided to run) , winky wright (tito was way past prime and had been of for years) , roy jones (at light heavyweight!) and bernard hopkins (at 160 against one of the best middleweights ever).

        tito has problems with guys who won't let him set because of their excellent jab (hopkins , roy , winky , oscar all have excellent reach) cotto doesn't have the style/physical attributes to keep tito offbalance and away. cotto is 5'7. he can't keep tito off of him.

        tito is taller , bigger , stronger , more powerful , tougher and has a better chin. cotto has few to no advantage whatsoever.

          correct me if i'm wrong but he never said anything about cotto NOT being in his prime.

          he's talking about a fight while both are in their primes. he never said cotto wasn't in his prime.
          exactly , im glad u can understand.

            trinidad with an amazing k.o
            if margarito was able to expose him tito definately can tito is a way stronger, talented and more accurate fighter than that of marg. and i belive a little more quicker. cotto will hold off the fisrt few rounds and then tito begins to tear his head up

              Non of the existing WW had a chance with Tito at his prime. Maybe mosley and DLH. But he Koed the rest of the existing WW. Tito Too big, too strong and he had a very acurate double left hook.!!! And decent boxing skills, and he was really heavy handed, I think the hardest hitter the division ever had!!!
