Wish that happened a few years back, excited to see it, but would have been great to see it years ago.

no punch resistance? What are you basing that on? He’s been stoped twice his entire career and the last time was 2009. He also went 12 competitive rounds with canelo and was never in any real trouble.

Saddam Ali. Young Cotto wipes Saddam Ali out inside of two rounds. The old version got hurt and handled easy by a guy who got absolutely rag dolled by a young Jaime Munguia in his very next fight

Mm, I think Cotto takes this one, bigger and younger, styles makes fights and this could be a good one.

he also happened to tear his bicep mid fight. Him getting buzzed by a shot he didn’t see doesn’t imply no punch resistance to me. It’s not like he went down or got put to sleep. Young Cotto (yes would’ve washed Ali) was hurt way worse than that vs Corley and Torres.

He was fighting with one arm due to tearing his bicep in like round 5 or 6. He was also winning the fight before he tore that bicep.
