    Cotto Ran AND Quit Again

    Miguel Cotto believed he was the stronger, better fighter and he would be able to back up Manny Pacquiao. Pacquiao stood toe to toe with "Fearless" Miguel Cotto. Pacquiao taunted Cotto as he dared him to keep hitting him in the body. After 2 knockdowns midway through the fight Miguel Cotto began running. BLATANTLY. To the point where Pacquiao held his arms to his side in disappointment.

    Cotto also asked his trainer to stop the fight after the 11th round. Quitting yet again. His trainer Joe Santiago urged him to persevere for 3 more mins and finish with dignity but when the bell for the 12th rd started it was clear Cotto had already checked out mentally.

      That was a great fight. I don't think he quit though.

          he didn't quit the ref stopped the fight. Cotto once again showed a lot of courage by trying until the very end.

          Lets see YOU go 12 full rounds against pacquiao with a swollen and bloody face, getting the **** pounded out of you and even your own trainer is telling you he's about to stop the fight.

          Do that and then maybe you'll have a point, if not STFU.

            he already lost and accepted defeat like a man... give respect to your self and leave him alone...

            I know you are a pacfan but fans like you are destroying other pacfans credibility and reputation...

            What a false statement in contrast...

              I too believe Cotto didn't quit. Bayless just think that it was too much pounding already so he stop it. Cotto is a real warrior and no doubt about it.

                He didn't quit, dude.

                His corner wanted to stop the fight several times, especially after the 11th, but Cotto told them not to.

                He was just trying to box intelligently towards the end, but to no avail.

                If you're going to **** on a fighter for running or quitting, I can think of a dozen others you should target before setting your sights on Miguel. (Junior Witter, Nate Campbell, Victor Ortiz, etc....)

                  give cotto a break. he was getting his azz kicked, trying to survive. i admit he wasn't trying to win but to say he quit is a disservice to him as a man.
