Stans in general are annoying. That's pretty much it. People who are so blinded by their fanboyship of their fighter that they refuse to see the shortcomings of them are just ****ing annoying.
A Cotto stan would never say something like I said about how I see Wright-Williams playing out (Williams getting a 9-3 or 8-4 decision because Winky is old, inactive and generally bad against volume punchers), because they cannot, for any reason, see their fighter losing.
For instance, a Cotto stan said that Cotto's textbook technical boxing skills are just as good as Floyd Mayweather's...
Uh huh...
I guess that's why Cotto put his ass on the ropes all night against Margarito instead of using lateral movement and not going straight back? Really, if Cotto has the boxing skills of Mayweather, he would have not pinned his ass on the ropes so often and gotten himself into trouble so often. Handwraps or not, Cotto put himself in harm's way quite a bit.
Stans are fans of fighters, not fans of the sport... and they are bad for boxing.Comment

To me it is really the same with every fighter. People from any group can be annoying, especially when talking in absolutes (this is another thing that gets me about fan boys, when I think about a fight I think about what % chance each fighter has of winning roughly, fan boys almost never give the opponent a shot at winning when in reality there are no sure things in boxing and when you step into the ring no one really knows what will take place). To me it really depends on what fighters you like as to which stans are the worst.
SOME do not hold cotto to the same standards they hold other fighters too. for example... SOME COTTO fans seem to have a Obession on what Mayweather should do for his legacy.. but never appy the same kind of pressure on there own fighter...
Instead of Worrying bout Mayweather legacy Cotto fans needs to worry about Cotto's...
- When is Cotto going to proved to the world that he is a great fighter?
- when is he going to be a undisputed champion of a division?
- when is he going to be a fighter of the year over a combined 9 times?
- When is he going to be pound for pound # 1 in boxing for a 3 year period? when is he going to moved up 5 weight classes ?
- When is he going to be undisputed champion in 3 Divisions?
- When is he going to beat 2 top 10 undefeated pound 4 pound fighters?
- When is he going to have 8 title defense in one division?
- When is he going to Fight Paul Williams
- When is he going to actually win a title?
- When is he going to stop fighting for vacant titles?
- When is he going to improved his defense?
- When is he going to fight Joshua Clottey?
- When is he going to beat Margarito?
- When is he going to learn how to stop upper cuts and straight right hands
- When is he going to prove that he is hall of fame worthy...
- When is he going to take a fight in which he is not ready and not favored?
I never Hear Cotto fans demanding Cotto go improve his legacy..why it that??? By they are up night and day worrying about Mayweather's legacy
and it's S O B O R I N G.
I'm not saying I don't think it's possible. In fact, putting all diplomacy aside, I think it's probable. I'm just sayin let it go. The day of the verdict there were like 10 threads popping up of Cotto fans just sticking it to Marg for the sake of it. It's immature and irritating. I'm just sayin it's better to let **** play out. Obviously it's going to be something on our minds, I know it's on mine. But a huge number of Cotto fans just can't handle themselves with any maturity on the situation. They just can't resist taking cheap shots, it's annoying.but this is a forum.its gonna happen.watch a fight, say, it ends in a brutal ko, then log on, and you'll see 7 threads about the same thing.

That las one youll never agree on!!!!!!!!Comment

I just can't comment on it, because I'm a Cotto fan, but I honestly don't think I fall under that category. But in fairness I haven't really seen much Floyd bashing by Cotto fans in the past few months.
And I've said this before, but you put wayyyy too much stock into the vacant title thing.
Cotto fought for the vacant WBA Welterweight title...but he fought Quintana. An undefeated Quintana coming off a huge win over Joel Julio, a Quintana that would go on to be the only man to defeat Paul Williams.
It's who you beat, the belt being vacant is irrelevant.Comment

Your problem with Cotto fans is Cotto himself. Since his FLoyds biggest threat, you always try to find something to bash on Cotto.
Can Floyd outbox the **** out off Cotto? Ofcourse he can!!!!!!
Can Cotto Ko Floyd or outpoint him? Ofcourse he cac
That las one youll never agree on!!!!!!!!Comment

That he have a long way to go to be consider a ATG. His resume is good, but not near what you need to be a ATG. He wont be able to win titles in more than 3 WeightClasses, do to his body type. So he will have to clean 147 completely and Clear half of the SWW, to be consider ATG IMO. The guy is just starting the run for his legacy, so we have to wait and see. i think he have the abilities to become a ATG, but that doesnt mean he will be.
If what you want, If me to say Floyds legacy is far better than Cottos? Well ofcourse it is.Comment
