    We should REALLY be focusing on the fact that Cotto "would be a ***** to use dirty tactics" huh?
    yes that's what you should be focusing on, cotto has no business using dirty tactics against a blatantly smaller fighter


    who is a former 106 lber.

        I would like to see Clottey's feet in that angle, and its pretty obvious that he jumped into Cotto, and Cotto threw him down. It wasn't like Cotto went at him and picked him up. Its the same deal with Urkal, the kept using his head and when he grabbed Cotto, Cotto let him know that **** doesn't fly. Also when Clottey complained about the punch to the back of the head, Clottey was holding Cotto's arm and I'm sure Cotto threw a punch because it wasn't exactly a "clean" hold. Essentially, I see Cotto as a guy who won't start anything dirty but if that's how his opponent is going to play Cotto will play by those rules as well.

        As per the Judah fight, the first one was an accident he got pushed down and it barely hit the "cup" area. The second one was on purpose I feel, however, I think because of the first low blow it made the second one look all that bad. Still, I don't understand why Cotto is perceived as a dirty fighter... because of the Judah fight and maybe what happened with Clottey? I think its safe to say that Cotto's never been in a more dire situation than the Marg fight, and not once did he resort to dirty tactics and only grabbed perhaps once in the fight. Floyd I feel is WAY more dirty than Cotto, he does it a lot more under the radar, but I can see a case being made for Floyd to wear gloves on his elbows with how he uses those things.

          God, I'm so tired of your ****** ass arguments, really. At most there is going to be a 15lb difference on fight night, big deal. Other than weight these guys have the same measurements, and the speed of Paq puts him on even ground with Cotto's power. I know this post will do nothing to stop your ******ed statements, but I just wanted to let people know that this is just to make Cotto look bad whether he wins or loses.

          If he wins, "He was supposed to, he beat the **** out of the smaller man."
          If he loses "See, he is washed-up."

          Its obvious where this is going... I mean Floyd is the same weight as Manny, maybe an inch taller, bout the same reach. So DLH should have beat the holy piss out of him? Shouldn't have he KO'd Hatton in 3 then? He should certainly KO Marquez in the first 10 seconds, using your "logic." Anyway, my rant is mainly to say that Cotto sucks win or lose and thats just so you couldn't say it first.

              15 lbs is alot

              Other than weight these guys have the same measurements, and the speed of Paq puts him on even ground with Cotto's power.
              pac's speed does not put pac on even ground w/ cotto. cotto has very good skills and he has good timing. pac is going into a gunfight w/ a knife.

              I know this post will do nothing to stop your ******ed statements, but I just wanted to let people know that this is just to make Cotto look bad whether he wins or loses.
              cotto gets nothing from this fight except a payday. we all know this.

              If he wins, "He was supposed to, he beat the **** out of the smaller man."
              big dudes are supposed to beat the **** out of smaller guys.

              If he loses "See, he is washed-up."
              for reals, there's no excuse for someone of cotto's caliber to get beat up by a smaller boxer.

              Its obvious where this is going... I mean Floyd is the same weight as Manny, maybe an inch taller, bout the same reach. So DLH should have beat the holy piss out of him?
              nope, floyd is a defensive genius. dlh wasn't gonna do **** to floyd. pac on the other hand got hit against david diaz.

              Shouldn't have he KO'd Hatton in 3 then?
              how could he? hatton was holding alot.

              He should certainly KO Marquez in the first 10 seconds, using your "logic."
              floyd should definitely stop JMM. even floyd said on 24/7 that he needs to stop JMM.

              Anyway, my rant is mainly to say that Cotto sucks win or lose and thats just so you couldn't say it first.
              cotto doesn't suck. he's a very good boxer.
