Miguel Cotto Says: "I Am Not Felix Trinidad"

[sycomantz]

i get it, tito was a bit black so you like him

a bit black? he is black. hes a black Rican

[sycomantz]

im tired of hearing and seeing people who think that the guy who has more fans/support translates into him being a "better boxer" B.S.

I have no issues with the way Cotto carries himself at all. He goes in there and does his job. He is a private guy and is not limelight hungry.

I would rather see him the way he is than having about 100 guys in an entourage.

I applaud Cotto...he is who he is and whether you like him or not he represents himself as a professional. This touchy feely subject has gone out of hand...when you are a prize fighter and you let feelings and emotions get in the way you lose that animalistic drive. I don't want my boxers tamed, I want them raw because the tamed animals are not ever the same....when you lose that hunger that primal instinc then it's over hang up the gloves. Become a singer and a promoter like ODLH....he was tamed way before he retired and he tried to continue fighting but it was over far before the Pac fight.

I want a hungry badass killer in the ring that shows no emotions....that's what made Tyson's facade, that's what made Clubber Lang a beast in the movie Rocky...you can't lose that drive nor that hunger as a fighter cause when you do the lights become dim and the lights go out in the ring.

I loved Tito and he is my icon but I commend Cotto for his accomplishments. No one will be Tito like no one will be Wilfredo Benitez or all our other Greats from the island. Cotto's career is still not over and he has accomplished feats already and has taken on some of the best competition at WW.

Point is guys don't let your panties get in a wad because the guy is not acting the way we want him to act...Miguel Cotto is Miguel Cotto and he represents a champion to the fullest. Tough **** if he doesn't smile or be outgoing....tough **** if he didn't pose infront of your camera and then walked away without kissing your ass for a minute...the dude is a humble champion and he is naturally a shy and reserved individual and I can respect that.

who cares what cotto and tito are outside the ring.

what is true is that tito > cotto.

I'm gonna agree with Miguel Cotto on this one.

People expect me to say hi to them and be all friendly but my personality does not let me do that. I like to keep my circle nice and small and i mistakingly grill a lot of people in the hood but luckily no one says anything. Sometimes you have this swagger that makes look conceited, but you just have a closed personality and you like to keep to yourself.

If there's anything i like about Miguel Cotto, it's his personality because i can relate to it.

No doubt. That Vargas was the best vargas and Tito ruined him. Matter of fact Tito ruined Reid, Mayorga, and Vargas. All 3 would have beat all of todays WWs except for a prime Mosley of course.

That's cause his hands were loaded. I've read everything on what happened before that Hopkins fight in the dressing room. Why the fight was delayed, how Hopkins and Richardson threatened to walk out etc etc. I mean people in the dressing room were saying Tito's already wrapped left hand probably weighed as much as one HBO's cameras. ****m again, he was first on the exposure. But that's why I hate Trinidad, the guy did ruin fighters, and he walks around smiling an **** like it's all good. That guy's a ****in rat, him and his dad.

I think your a little upset that he was a Mexican Assassin, it's all good Chavez and Salvador Sanchez were Rican Assissins too. It's what developed our rivalry.

All you dudes should respect Cotto for his being the way he is. Alot of you don't realize that fratenizing leads to misunderstandings and being accused of criminal intent and people try and get money out that Boxer. Haven't you guys ever heard of Mike Tyson. Do you know what he was accused of and did time for. Tito Trinidad, as much as he still his my favorite all time boxer, got busted with another chick, and his marriage was on the rocks. Your ass can't concentate on your job, and training, etc. Let Cotto be Miguel Cotto and watch him from ringside, and mind your own business.

alot of Soldiers, especially Vietnam, got thier @ss' handed to them for being "TOO" friendly.
