Cotto needs to hang them up.

cotto isn't damaged goods.

he just got beaten by a great fighter and he needs to move on and reassert hisself in the same division.

he has good technical skills but just couldn't cope up with manny's speed. He also needs to improve on his defense and stamina..

Do you think he has the reach the point where he gets knocked out by one punch to be damage goods? He cant take as many shots now without going down. How can he be any better. If he had the same fights he had with Mosley, Clottey, and Margarito he will likely lose in a faster fashion because he's been hurt since he fought Margarito.

You couldn't tell that quickly because he fought Jennings, but he's just very fragile now. Sure he can box, but as soon as he gets a good punch he's in trouble unlike when he fought Mosley.

Exactly. Mosley lost to forest and wright and did he retire? NOPE !! If pacquiao had lost to cotto or loses to floyd, should he retire? Imagine if pacquiao had retired after beat down by morales....Pacquiao fans "****** IT UP" and look at the rewards. The idiots that jump fast and recommend good fighters retire are just that....IDIOTS.

I know... after about 100 posts saying if Cotto can't ko a former 106lb'r, he should retire, bashing Cotto fans, now he says this to save face.

for me it's tough to say. But what I did see in their from cotto i didn't like. Maybe and it could be all pacman(which i'm leaning towards it is) but that bein said he has been in many fregin wars and it's going to catch up if not already. Why risk something when you have done so much to me the writing is on the wall I don't want him to retire but I think he should. NOt because of this loss the way it happened at his past. He's a game fighter and always will be but he is not the same. I'm not taking anything away from pacman i think he beats cotto 10 out 10 times. I told my friends before the fight this is the biggest fight for me since tito and hopkins and at the end of the fight I felt the same way I did that night with the cotto fight drunk and pissed off and sad. When cotto asked santiago one more round, i am glad he went out and didn't sit on the stool. One last thing manny pacquiao is the best little man boxer I have ever seen i've been watching since mid 90"s never seen anything like him he is just a beast. Thanks to those fighters cause it was a good fight not great but they both should be very proud and their fans.

WAR COTTO
