Gato Figueroa Reacts to Cotto Camp Expulsion

[BG_Knocc_Out]

He is just responding to a reportes question it's not like he held a press conference. this could had been avoided if he was given the reason why he was kicked out. IF this is all true.

That is exactly what need to happen either from Arum or anybody ob Cotto's Team.

No, he won't do that because he has already denied rumors going thru this website of him knocking down Cotto while training after he was kicked out. That showed some class.

IFwhat Figueroa has been saying is true if was him who was treated unprofesionally. How would you fell if you make arrangemnet to be away from your family for a certain period of time because you received a job offer and then that company fires you with no reason at all before your contract expires. I'll bet you will be pissed and probably say worst thing that El Gato has said, which the only thing that he has is that he was giving no reasons for him being fired. What is unprofessional about saying that.

Until we do not hear the other side of the version it won't be El Gato's fault of having reporters asking the question over and over again and making news out of it. He is not going on a press tour saying what happen he is just responding to questions. Gato might have got over it already but until this is not cleared out by Cotto's Camp, ever reporter that El Gato face will be asking the same questions.

I'm a huge Cotto fan and you can check my previous post if you have any doubts but i'm also fair and try not to be biased. IF what Figueroa saying is true it was Cotto's camp who was unprofesional on this matter and the man deserved and explanation.

Don't treate people like you don'y want to be treated.

Listen to this man.

Cotto has a funny camp, telling by having El Gato, and Ivan Calderon do impressions of Manny Pacman, thats your first sign that their ***ing around over there...

[jetgeomcx]

still....nothing is clear.
why is team cotto not giving any explanation......weird !
speculations will run wild......unless an official statement comes out.

[Machingo69]

It's easy to figure out. They caught Figueroa talking to the press and thats a big NO NO in Cotto's camp. No sparring partner in Cotto's camp is allowed to make comments to the press regarding their training and there is always the possibility that el Gato was not completely effective during the sparring sessions..... Nothing more, nothing less.

Besides, Cotto's camp is very professional and y el Gato is very ******. He's a Puerto Rican from the Bronx. Cotto probably didn't like his ******ness. LOL

this fight is so big that everybody around both these fighters are just trying to get in the cotto/pac soap opera. from now on im just gonna read when either cotto of pac speak im sick & tired of all the bs articles they post here lately. both fighters are training like hell so unless one of them falls & dies before nov.14th everything else is just bs period. to me el gato is a little bi..h & unprofessional. they sent him home,shut the f..k up pack ur sh.t & go home. it happens everyday in this sport for many reasons. u dont like it get over it & move on but dont go public trying to put down another fellow puerto rican like ur special or something. like hes so good he shouldnt be dismissed. he just got KO'd & hes spars for other fighters alot how good can he be...whos gonna give u work now that they know u like to run ur mouth? there are plenty of fighters out there that wil do the same job or better & conduct themselves with more professionalism.

I agree with this post, great post.

So much BS is coming out, even from Shawn Porter (Pac's sparring) and Gato (Cotto's sparring).

Some people may enjoy the nonsense and some people don't.

[jetgeomcx]

Soon he'll be saying he KO'ed Cotto just to get back at the guys who fired him lol.

Seriously though, I'm tired of hearing from him. I already know he was kicked out without being given a reason.

figueroa was asked to spar and he agreed.
it is just ryt and prudent for team cotto to tell him why he's been fired out.
decency and civility were thrown out the window....

yet a marquee rican in cotto can do this to his fellow rican with no name yet?
you are setting a double standard for the ricans, brah.

IF what Figueroa saying is true and no excuses were giving on why he got kicked out, it was very unprofessional. The man accepted go out there and help Cotto train and all of a sudden "just go home" with no reasons or explanations given is totally wrong.
Even after doing that (if it is true) to Figueroa (El Gato) he has been professional about his participation in Cotto's Camp, denying rumors that he knocked down Cotto while training and that Cotto is been well prepaired, showing class from his side. Others will be just talking trash.
I have followed Cotto's career and I'm a huge fan of his. The way Cotto approach Boxing business has always been very proffessional during his career but IF Figueroa was treated like described here it is truelly a failure from Cotto's team.

Treat people with respect so you can be respected, doesn't matter how big you are.

ryt, it was very unprofessional.

precisely, brah! kudos!.....same as my comment above
can't give you green k yet...

your reasoning is flawed...
what if the same thing happens to you or to anybody really close to you.
