It's not an insult to your manhood or your pride , it is just a realistic look at things. I had 49 pro fights, 70 amateur fights, have sparred thousands of rounds, have sparred more than 400 rounds just this year alone...but I know for SURE that I couldn't hit any of Randy Johnson's pitches, I wouldn't last more than twenty seconds on the ground with Chuck Lydell if he didn't want me to, and I couldn't beat Carl Lewis in the 100. And YOU cannot last three rounds with Miguel Cotto. It would be not only ridiculous but it would be an insult to him to even suggest a non boxer could hang with him.
    got a name? boxrec Not that I dont believe you...just intrested.

        Are you serious? John Scully is his real name and he's the real deal. He's been a pro, a commentator, he fought Michael Nunn for a Super Middleweight Title.

            Cotto: I'd say half a minute. I'd last during the "feeling out" period. Then when he realizes that I'm probably the worst guy he's ever been in with, it's over. And I'd be waaaaay more weary of getting KO'd to the body. I don't want any broken ribs man..

            Malignaggi: I would be his next new knockout within the end of the 3rd. Don't get it twisted, he can hit when he tries. At least when it's an accumulation. He knocked Lovemore N'Dou down, and Lovemore is a ****ing tank.

              I clearly said I didnt doubt him, I was intrested to see what his career was like.

                Good ****, and absolutely true.

                I know I could last past the first round with Cotto, I've got long legs, and I would run from him like my life depended on it just to get that $100K, after that it's just a matter of how badly he wants to hurt me. Hope the 3 knockdown rule isn't in effect.

                  Was this directed at me or someone else? Because I also stated that I could last 3 rounds, but I am not a non-boxer. If this was directed at me, I think it would be wholly one sided, but I still stand that I could last 2-3 rounds with Cotto.

                    For the record, against a man more my size, I'd have to fight Wladimir Klitschko because we're the same height, but he outweighs me by what? 40-50lbs?

                    I wouldn't last one, but I'd try.

                    Maybe I'd try to talk chess to him in there for the first 3 minutes so I can grab that 100K.

                      You must have a pretty strong chin.
                      Won't an amateur fighter-let alone a non-boxer be shipping punches like hell?
