Cotto Is A True Champion But Why Has He Only Won Vacated Belts?

[El Dominicano]

B Hop was taller, had more reach, and was a full MW, he was overall bigger. PBf is taller and have more reach, Cotto just cant push his body to a lower weight. In overall PBF is bigger than Cotto , but Cotto weights a bit more!!!!!!!!1

Mayweather bigger then Cotto? Mayweather at 130 came in at 133+ fight night...and his walk around PLUS fight night weight at WW was 146-148...

It isn't that Cotto couldn't push his body any lower. He was already too weak for 140...I give him credit for kickin ass there but even he admitted that making 140 was becoming too hard where as Mayweather didn't struggle to make 130

Didn't Cotto come into training camp 170?

Was this picture from an actual fight? Looks like a father beating his son, that big a size difference.

I'd show a picture of Hopkins fighting 5'7" Lupe Aquino, but there aren't any.


5'11 to 5'7"<<<<<6'1" to 5'7"
4<<<<<<6

Yes. And that was fat as hell Cotto. Don you think that Mayweather walk around weight is like 160? I mean in his fights at WW he weights 148 and 149, on fight night, and Cottto 152-155., So make the math. anyways, if you just count weight for overall size, well I guess Cotto is bigger than Floyd!!!!!!

so by this standars PW is a huge *****., because he is like 6'3"-6'4",theres no way he is 6'1" like they try to push. I just saw his fight with Margo, he towared over Margo, in fact it look like Margo over cotto, that big of a difference!!!!!!

Floyd faced this Puerto Rican fighter at 130 I forgot his name. He has like 2 loses...I can't remember. The dude bones was stickin out n ****. But the dude looked like he belonged at 135 or 140 where as Floyd looked really comfortable at 130. Cotto got stunned by Torres, Chop Chop, Ndou but took shots from Shane, Margarito. That is the proof that Cotto is bigger.

Height and reach don't indicate the bigger fighter. Example, Tyson and Chico

No it is 147. His fight night weight is 147...Even when he is being interviewed he looks like a WW

Really? So Cesar Bazan, Rocky Martinez, Kelson Pinto, and now Michael Jennings get a pass somehow? I wasnt hating on Cotto its just something that sticks out. Other fighters are always criticized for not getting a title linearly but when Cotto does it, its ok? Again not hating on the guy, Im a fan, but again its noticeable.

fighters don't get critisized for picking up vacant belts.. they get criticized for fighting sorry opposition.
this is why this thread is ******.. because belts don't matter much anymore the persons you beat fight/beat do.
Keep hating but it doesn't change the fact that Cotto has one of the best resumes in the welterweight division right now.

Agreed. There's too many damn belts to begin with.

[Jknows]

Cotto just keeps getting chances to fight for vacant belts but doesn't come easy he fights for belt it's not handed to him..

If you read any portion of the thread you would have seen the competition he fought to obtain those vacant belts were ordinary to subpar, pay taxes to Floyd and be happy you share the same city.
