Miguel Cotto Says: "I Am Not Felix Trinidad"

[jazluvr]

I think you are fishing homie...Marg didn't ruin Cotto...Marg just ruined his name and legacy because it will be forever tainted. You are entitled to your opinion and if you think Tito and his pops are **** then what do you think of Tony?

Just the opposite here, I think cheato gave Miguel a present, if he can avenge that loss, that fight has legecy written all over it. I don't think ruined his name at all. Jmo.

Cotto Personality vs Tito Personality

It is obvious and unanimous that Tito's personality is more accesible likeable and even admirable than Cotto's. I have seen Tito arrive to a basketball came and miss the whole came because he never stops greating people while pleasing them with pictures. If you are going to look for a role model Tito hands down is a better choice than Cotto.

However we cant judge Cotto for wanting to be who he is. True that he is a public figure and that we sometimes want our public figures to be more accessible but they have their own life and personalities. We know Cotto as a warrior in the ring and that's how you should admire him if you want a role model or a great personality their are lots of other people like Tito who has it in himself as something natural and which he enjoys,

But in a world filled with Hypocrisy i'll rather value more a person that shows who he is and not what we want him to be.

Even though that both Cotto and Tito have huge difference in personalities they have both done a lot and represented our country with dignity and pride not only in the ring but outside the ring. Both have contributed big time in Puerto Rico whether it has been sponsoring other sports, sick children, chrity activities and in Cotto's case promting young boxers in Puerto Rico.

As boxing fan let's enjoy them for what the did or currently do while representing their country and as a person we should just let them be who they are, not waht we wish they should be, after all do they ask you to be who you are not????

I think cotto's attitude is almost as bad as floyds! I don't think cotto could give a **** about his fans! The way he marched out of the mgm the night margarito beat him and didn't even offer a post fight interview in the ring or locker room showed how much of a ***** he is! Margarito lost every round and got knocked the *** out in front of 22,000 fans and he didn't run. he stood there and apologized to his fans that he didnt' do better and gave us an interview.

I hate to agree with you, but that is the truth.....................

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.

Vargas was also much less experienced than trinidad and yet trinidad still got taken through a life and death battle with him.David Reid was also much less experienced than trinidad and mayorga wasn't exactly fighting in his greatest division,In truth Mayorga hasn't been all that above 147,His chin and power never moved up with his weight very well

WHAT?
Cotto is not Tito?
Why didn't anyone tell me?

Now that's funny

In Puerto Rico, Wilfredo Gomez was more loved than TiTo. Some of you are too young, but there is a story called; "El Silencio... mas grande en la historia de Puerto Rico". Those who know about THE SILENCE, they know why Gomez is the greatest PR Boxer in history.

[ianblake]

of course not! There will never be anyone who puerto rico loved more than tito! Tito is the man!

alot of support fro vargas here...he was a good fighter but the guy wasnt amazing...he lost his biggest fights and retired to young
.
You cant compare them right now becaue Cotto is still in his prime and has several years left.
somebody put a list of Titos ATG fights though...let me see

Hopkins=Lost
DLH=Questionable
Wright=Lost
RJJ=Lost
Whitaker=Won(35 yrs OLD and not a Mosley or Hopkins 35)

he was a great fighter and fought the best but he didnt necesarily do the best against the best..history cant reflect on Cottos career yet becasue we have to figrst see what the fighters he fought are shown as and how he finishes his career...Margarito could be the next hopkins we just dont know yet hahaha

[Eric Holder]

Tito always annoyed the hell out of me


Cotto seems like a cool dude

wright and rjj don't count, as tito had been in retirement for several years.

for sure, tito would destroy everyone in cotto's resume except mosley.

cotto would not be able to beat the best of tito's resume.
