Double standards with Chad Dawson and Miguel Cotto.

[onedream722]

I think if I had to buy a career DVD set, I'd go with Cotto any day of the week. I'm just saying that he gets on his bicycle similar to what Dawson does when he's fatigued or hurt.

a lot of fighters take rounds off..if cotto "runs" then mayweather, haye, dirrell, are all marathon runners from kenya

Cotto is exciting, he brutalizes and knocks people out.

And he's puerto rican so he automatically has a built in fanbase if he's a winner. Think about it, if Calderon were black, would we even know his name?

Cotto was on his bike outboxing the **** out of Shane Mosley, landing hard punches on Mosleys face.

Cotto has only gone 4 times on his bike.

against N.dou for the last 3 rounds, still beat the **** out of N'dou.

Against Mosley the last 3 rounds again, landing hard punches while moving and making his opponent look like a fool.

against margarito, he was putting on a clinic till he got stopped

Against Clottey, the game plan, was to push Clottey back, but since Clottey headbutts the **** out of everyody, Cotto had to adjust during the fight to win it. because with one eye, its hard to stand and trade toe to toe.


Chad Dawson, not only runs, he dont throw ****in punches and he still get gassed!!


get a grip buddy!!!!

Both guys are great fighters. You have to give some credit to Dawson because he's not a puncher and he's fighting guys who can end a fight with one punch, he's not taking unnecessary risks on those fights because he just dominate with his skills.

In the case of Cotto, he just opted to box with Margarito, Clottey and Mosley, three iron chinned welterweight, not without having trade with them before. In the Clottey's fight it's understandable due to his cut, you know he could've asked his corner to stop the fight and win a decision in rds #4 or #5 because he was clearly ahead on the scorecards. Both fighters deserve credit, but it's ok if you don't like them.

Difference is cotto is a warrior,dawson isn't.

Cotto smells blood and he finishes,Dawson smells blood and he goes on a walk.

Another differnece is your a douche bag.

ROFLMAO jajajajajaja

Dawson is never the aggressor when he fights a guy like Glen Johnson or Tomasz Adamek, so I can see your point there. And Cotto is aggressive when the situation calls for it. I unerstand what you're saying. Good post.

[Iceta]

Bump. And I'll bump it after the Cotto-Pac fight too, because we know that Cotto will run in that fight as well.

[M.I.C.]

It's because Cotto isn't as good as Dawson. Cotto runs to survive, Dawson just cause he feels like it.

[savorduhflavor]

What this is based on is even wrong.

Cotto gets SO much **** for how he fought in the late rounds against Mosley and Clottey. Your acting like everyone praises him, that's bull**** he gets more **** for that than Dawson does.

And, when he started boxing against Mosley, he was very far ahead on the cards. The fight tightened up when Mosley came on in the 9th and 10th. After 8 it was like 6-2. Mosley also re-opened the cut inside Cotto's mouth from the Judah fight.

In the Clottey fight, yea he was moving, cause he couldn't see any right hands coming, he had to be careful. And when it mattered, he stepped up in the championship rounds.

People go out of their way to criticize Cotto and Dawson. It's really ****ing ******.

cotto won need to run from an opponent that he is bigger and stronger than.

he backpedals against stronger and bigger opponents like mosely, margo, and clottey and hits them cleanly while moving.

pac is not bigger and stronger than cotto

pac is also not a inside or pressure fighter. so I do not see any scenario were pac would force cotto to move like he did he down the stretch against mosely or clottey.
