[socalrican01]

and by the way,it's not two vacant titles,its four i think,,,i just admire a guy more when he goes after the champion..

its all about strategy fool! PRIZE FIGHTING Rememeber! Soooooo

[Boxking]

Collazo should've been number nine.

[socalrican01]

he did quit,,he nodded to his corner he didn't want any more,,thats why he took a knee,and as far as tony cheating,he should be banned forever,but say all we want,we don't know if he cheated in this fight,but i do know this cotto did quit,a real champ continues,a warrior,big heart,and he didn't

I tell you what son, when you got kids and a wife...and this its a job were talking... it's time to think SMART, LIVE to fight another day, Think Future, Be around for kids, etc... I'll tell you what, from a Rican's perspective, Cotto had taken enough pain and punishment, if Plastarito should have knocked him out, it's not Cotto's fault his head had more sense than his chin! ****! As soon as he handle's Clottey and then handles then next big name, Everyone will shut up! I wonder if he continues to dominate and reign as champion, if you're still gonna say he doesn't have heart! Sooooooo

I Agree. I had him infront of the fight against Berto.

Puerto Rican fighters don't get help by the government, it looks that way because the fan really support the fighters and the sport. Cuba has a good history but there political system disrupts there progress. As I predic fighters of the former Soviet Union are comming out and we are seeing the results now.

Domincan Republic has good fighters but have little support in there home conutry in able to promote their fighters. You can always expect great challenges comming from Mexico with the quantity of fighters their. Mexican fighters are getting more and more tecnical over the years. The U.S. is not the dominant force anymore as it used to be. Hard to understand why when everybody else wants to fight here and is where you get paid the most. Every year boxing gets bigger and bigger in Europe especially in Germany and in the UK. There is no denying that PR has great boxing heritage and so many champions for such a small country.

The truth

Is funny how fighters from Ghana, Africa, The Philippines and other VERY POOR countries make it in boxing while civil war and poverty, corruption ect. its going on in their coutries. But some MEXICANS always seem to cry on how bad they have it and are always pointing fingers and whining on it. I must say in every boxing post that I have been, it has become very typical of them. FYI, mexicans, boxing its call "THE POOR MAN'S GAME", why? you might ask. Because you dont need much (material) to become something other than heart and determination. Anyway much respect to the island of Puerto Rico, A wise man told me a long time ago, "you are nobody if no one hates on you".

1. I thought Fonseca was a bantamweight
2. The only thing he and Martinez have in comparison is that they look like they havent eaten in days and get mad when hurt. Fonseca has a quick jab and a pretty complete all around offense but doesnt look like he wants to engage his opponents while Martinez likes the hooks and uppercuts and is more than eager to go toe to toe with his rivals.

1- yes!!! i though he was @ 122 my bad

2. that... and u r right ! on the other

I wish Cotto grew some balls and went to Mexico to fight Margacheato in tijuana that will make history.....

Over in Puerto Rico, there was a historic boxing gathering. All eight of the current Puerto Rican world champions got together for a very publicized photo session. WBA welterweight champion Miguel Cotto, WBO junior flyweight champion Ivan Calderon, WBO super featerweight champ Roman Martinez, WBO super flyweight champ Jose Lopez, WBO super bantamweight champ Juan Manuel Lopez, WBA junior middleweight champ Daniel Santos, IBA bantamweight champ Victor Fonseca and IBA featherweight champ Orlando Cruz.

Yeah I forgot to say another comparison of these two is that they both are 5'8 in height, and that is a huge(literally) advantage for Fonseca. He is as big as mexican great Carlos Zarate. You combine his rwach with his quicness and he is almost a shoe in to become a champion.

ur an idiot. Cotto said he wanted the rematch it was going to happen until margacheato cheated. Second if he goes over there and fights its like disrespceting the commision. Third if the cheating happened in lv or la what makes u think it wont in mexico. If they are letting him fight thell let him fight with that **** on
