Prime Kostya vs Cotto

[Motofan]

Kostya takes Cotto out early. Within 5. Right hand turns the lights out on Cotto. He's just too easy to hit.

[Silencers]

Tszyu would have beaten the 140 pound version of Cotto, it could be a different story at 147 where Cotto isn't having nearly as much trouble making weight and has become a much better fighter at the weight. In a pound for pound fight, Cotto would probably lose but that doesn't mean his accomplishments don't match Tszyu now and Cotto would be a live underdog against Tszyu because of his style.

I see you are copying me. I said before Williams resume at 168 is on par with Kessler at 168. Geez get you own material

Mayweather started at 130, fought the best at 135
Cotto started at 140, fought the best at 147
Kostya started at 140, and stayed at 140 scared

Oscar started at 130, fought the best at 160, what's your point?

Is Hagler any less great because he stayed at MW?

[Motofan]

no, actually the key phrase was "made him look like a fool"

For one round. Zab made Floyd look bad for longer then that and that was a Zab coming off a loss. Kostya fought an unbeaten "worldbeater" Zab.

zab has no heart and weak minded.

the undefeated zab full of confidence was the best zab ever.

after kostya......i don't think he was ever the same.
