Cotto just pushed himself towards the top with his performance on Saturday night. That was an awful cut to fight with and would have prompted most fighters to stop (Robert Guererro). Despite all the blood going into his eyesight, despite the pain it must have caused, he finished all the way through despite some shaky moments. I'm not in the crowd that thinks he won, but it was still amazing to watch him continue to take punches without folding.
I cant say about Pacquiao. He has always been in the driver seat, never really had his back against the ropes. We gotta wait and see how he does in a big fight when he cant seem to get anything off.
popkins is retired, but i still give him all the respect in the world
I'm a big Calzaghe fan... But no one portrays the fortitude of Hopkins...
Just love that guys attitude... In ya face all night long...
Good top 3, by the way.....

Umm the running around the ring with his hands down and not wanting to engage.... that isn't strong mentality in boxing. Strong mentality is never being thrown off your game no matter what the cirumstances. Cotto whenever he fights "real" competition, is always thrown off of his game which isn't very mentally strong.
