    so you have to see a 117-111 UD just so you could be happy
    former champs that cotto has beaten
    Joshua Clottey
    Shane Mosley
    Zab Judah
    Carlos Quintana
    Paul Malignaggi
    Ricardo Torres
    DeMarcus Corley
    Randall Bailey
    Lovemore Ndou
    Carlos Maussa

      Cotto fights Marg and Gets Destroyed

      Hatton fights Lazscano and looks a little shaky
      Cotto fights jennings and looks ok

      Cotto fights Clotty and looks Very Shaky
      Hatton fights Paulie and looks ok

      Neither of em were on fire since those big losses
      Oh, ouch. Infern0. What's up with that comparison? I would rather Cotto be compared to someone like Jimbob the hayseed than hatton.

        Cotto is a B Class Fighter at best.

              Cotto just doesn't seem the same. He was hurt against Zab Judah, but he was still in better condition and kept coming strong in the later rounds, but against Clottey he was out of stamina. Theres no doubt that if Cotto can fight a full 12 rounds he's almost unbeatable.

              No one has manage to be better than him in the first half of the fight. He needs to get in better condition and protect himself better in the beginning rounds while saving some of his energy for the second half of the fight. Sometimes he gives too much in the early rounds when he has already won the round. He needs to have a better stradergy he needs a real manager.

                  It's my own opinion. Cotto fans are very sensitive. Cotto's best wins are almost all Gift Decisions (Mosley and Clottey). A class fighters should look good knocking out or dominating boxers people don't expect to get KO.

                  B class Boxers doesn't mean you're bad. You're still an elite ordinary champ but nothing special.

                    Just curious, ball bag, what will you do if/when Cotto defeats Pacquiao in undeniable fashion? Will you tuck tail and wimper in the corners of life or will you man up and admit that Cotto is better?

                    For my part I will be extremely disappointed if Cotto loses, but pleased for Pacquiao (even though his camp is pulling bull****).

                      So Mayweathers a b class fighter. Thats all he really likes to fight b class fighters. fighting the best fighters takes a toll on boxers and margarito having plaster didn't help. while others are still fresh, because they never get into real danger by fighting the best fighters at their best.
