Figueroa Says He Never Knocked Miguel Cotto Down

[CottoKOsPacman]

its clear as day, just pay attention to the example he gave with the article example. he just wasnt giving enough for cotto team. he says if ur writing 1 article a week & they want u to step it up & write three then u expect to be let known that u have to step it up before being fired. if he would have been good against cotto while sparring in his mind then that example would have looked like: if ur writing three articles a week but they want u to step it down some & write 1 then u atleast wanna be let known.......i mean cmon people its not that hard realize this guy's not gonna make himself look bad & let us know that he was just not good enough. i mean the man promotes himself & throws weekly webisodes on his twitter page titled the road to the belt. this guys just a bum looking for some attention on cotto's expense....& i know to expect pac fans & cotto haters to fall for this catz bs but im truly disappointed on how some cotto fans have assumed the worst, when we all know that cotto will never talk or brag about even just flooring a sparring mate like the likes of pacman camp does on a daily basis by hyping & glorifying everything pacman does in camp to the media.

What?

Sparring partners get paid more for a few sparring sessions than a lot of boxers get paid for a fight. Sparring 1 or 2 months with Cotto for the Pac fight could have gotten Figueroa 10-20k.

thats probably a bit on the high side. These days world class sparring partners for a fight like this are getting at MAX $1000 a week plus hotel/meals. I think the days of guys getting 1500-2000 a week are long gone.......

I have said it plenty of times that the man deserved an explanation, but now I find myself asking why are you so interested about this when you actually spread the rumor, not only that El Gato had knocked down Cotto, but that he did it 3times. I guess that your credibility here has just been exposed. By the way here's you post of 10/14/2009 when you were so sure about the reasons why El Gato had been fired.

You have just been owned.

OWNAGE!
Owneria.
DeOwned.
Cownio!

Fuc all this I hope Cotto's preperation is going well, I know Pac's camp is having trouble but that's beetween his management and im sure he is focusing on nothing but Cotto and letting them fight that amongst themselves. Keep in mind Cotto is still fresh with Joe Santiago's training regime, these are alternate distractions. Plus, he's up against Pacquiao which now puts the pressure up against the opponent tremendously, similar to ODLH's opponents.

Probably, Arum paid him extra money to deny to the media that he decked Cotto in a sparring match.

Cotto's KD in a sparring match is not a good sign for the upcoming mega fight.

Pacquiao by brutal KO in the 1st round!!!

You wish man!!! If not, how are you going to pay the bets(200,000) when Pac gets KTFO? You do't even have 50,000! I don't even know why someone would bet with you.

I love how *******s feed on this bull****. They need something to give them hope and there's nothing like ******* created internet rumors to do just that.

Just like how Cotto fans do the same if they here anything negative about Pacquiao. Heh.

Even when the fighter has a double digit million purse coming?

It's still more than what most fighters make for a fight. Good look on the info though.

give a man his due respect,..and earn his respect in return!!

why is cotto camp so silent until now.???
this issue will not die until they tell their side of the coin.
media will feast on figueroa...who willingly oblige to get free promo for his upcoming fyt!!

[jetgeomcx]

I didn't think Figueroa was giving Cottto too much trouble, I just want to Team Cotto to say why he was let go. Maybe they will on 24/7.

hey brah...
you over-extend your bet.
how can you cover 320,000 with your 224,500 points???

With all the people around that sparring session, someone would've revealed cotto getting knocked down. Trust me, not everyone can keep their mouths shut even people close to cotto.Heck, it might be even head games from cotto camp and roach will believe it.
