Cotto showed more heart than Roy Jones did

[larryx]

I like to see how you handle slaps when your eye is completely covered by blood.

Cotto was a younger, faster,and powerful fighter because of his age. RJJ was shot, but at least was able to knock Joe in the 1st round. Dont be ignorant guys...

????i understand about the cut..we're talking pre cutt.his reluctance to fight is how he got cut

[rizkybizness]

Rogelio you're shot worse than Jones. The **** you have been saying recently doesnt make much sense.

Maybe because of age?? Plus you got a opposite fighter who throws so many fast punch slaps....and younger...or at his peak..

cotto quit in his prime....jones finished the fight way past his prime....and i like cotto as a fighter.

Yup...there is a big difference between being at your peak and quitting than being a shot fighter and losing the way Roy did.

On the one hand, I can see your argument. Cotto did everything in his power to win the fight with Margarito, he was throwing bombs in there and a normal man would've been out by the 8th. whereas Roy seemed content to just hide in the corner with his earmuffs on from about the 5th onward.

But Cotto took a voluntary knee, and kneeled before Margarito, in his prime.

A prime Roy Jones would've never done that.

Cotto went in against margarito and gave it all he could. Even when he knew he couldn't hurt him he kept firing away, that's more than what Roy Jones jr can say. Fighting with ZERO confidence, talking with ZERO confidence, and going into a fight only for a paycheck. I was embarrassed to see roy fight like this, it was like watching the 3rd tarver fight all over again!!! I can respect someone giving his all gettting knocked out, or quiting after he's had enough in a war. It's a shame when your opponent is slapping at you, palms sideways, and putting no weight into ANY PUNCHES and yet you still stand there with your hands up scared to get hit while your opponent is stickings his tongue out, shaking his hips, with hands so low he can almost tie his shoes all you do is stand there not throwing cause you're scared to get hit. What a shame! Thanks for the memories Roy once again, but i've spent my last $50 on a rjj ppv.

Simple, really.
Cotto=in his prime and got his ass handed to him and stopped by a limited fighter.

Jones=knocked down and lasted all 12 rounds with the #3 p4p fighter in the world who is undefeated with a bad cut and being about 5 years past his prime.

I would say they both showed alot of heart, but Jones slighly has the edge.
