        Gatti KTFO cotto...cotto is not ready and as i have always said is overrated,,,he has gotten credit for beating nobodies and got a KO win over Corley cuz corley took a knee to relax...that bs on PR come on...but its was a good fight,cotto is good but not as good as everyone saids he is and is easy to hit....if he was rocked by a guy who doesnt hit hard and outweighting him by 17pounds....!!!Then Gatti,Kt and maybe even Floyd are going to seriously hurt cotto in the future

          lol I get both of yer points -you and Super but Gatti's not a guy Cotto can bully around. The PR kid's been doing well by imposing his size and power but I'd want to see him against someone who can take the shot and give back as good. If Gatti boxes, I'm telling you Cotto would have tough time landing. Plus he gets hit way to clean. If they we're to fight now, I'd say Gatti knocks him out. He's got the power, chin, reach, size and experience to neutralize Cotto's offense.

            He's coming along. I like how he regrouped when he got rocked. You're right though, he's easy to hit.

              He fought a very sloppy fight, but you may be right. his defense needs to improve. mostly in his ability to avoid being countered.

              i keep hearing "Cotto is easily hit". and i know gatti has this pretty, new style. but he hasnt tested against a young bull that can come forward.
              Gatti's middle name is "easy to hit." If bronco can land shots, i belive cotto could as well. Cotto will get his shots in, gatti's face will open up.

                  He's easy to hit cuz he allows it by trading. But when he decides to move, people DO NOT land as much. In rounds were Gatti decided to box Ward, he outclassed him badly. Dorin was having trouble getting in as well so what does he do, put up his hands to take more punishment closing in the distance, but BOOM body shot. Leija tries to make it war (which looked hilarious cuz gatti's the much bigger fighter) but Gatti stays on the outside and gets him with a right hand counter. Fact is when Gatti decides to pick up his feet, he's obviously much much harder target to hit.

                  I'd pick a fighter who uses the ring over a fighter who only hides his chin.

                    Do you know how many he took? And just how many landed when he boxed?
