    Cotto would change styles about as much as Hatton did. Pointless matchup.
    Doesnt matter who trains Cotto he will never be the same after a second beating like that , this time he got truly beat by a far superior fighter , Cotto cannot ease his inner doubts like he could on learning about Margos gloves could ease , Cotto is over and out he is a broken fighter the look in the mans eye was no mass , excellant fighter that should take an easy fight get a win and walk away while healthy .

    Floyd Snr is a good trainer , little Floyd proves that and many other quality guys back that up , boxing is full of villians always has been so thats no big deal , I really dont know what you guys are so ready and willing to throw **** on somebody you only know via your TV .

      No way Jose. Cotto needs some one to teach him discipline unlike Santiago. Cotto won't mess up with Roach he's too well known. Mayweather wasn't even on time for some of Hatton training. Plus Roach will protect Cotto from further harm so he can live to fight another day.

      He will protect him before and after the fight. Just like he protected Gerry Penalosa from more damage. He's very honest thats what I love about him. and he really cares about his fighters. He gives pac credit for being a known figure, but Cotto better act quick, because Roach isn't as healthy as before. He can't go on training fighters forever. And just Maybe Santiago will gain some needed experience.

        I don't think Floyd Sr. is the answer because Cotto is not really the type of fighter that would benefit from Mayweather Sr.. He is not a defensive minded fighter and never will be so trying to rework that would take a very long time, really who could stand Mayweather Sr. long enough to really complete that task.

        Mayweather Sr. would be a good guy to talk to and maybe bring in to help work on Cotto's defense maybe teaching him a couple tricks that certainly could not hurt (although who could work well with Mayweather Sr. except maybe Jeff Mayweather), but I do not think he would be good for Cotto as the head man.

        Off the top of my head I can not really say who would be good for him, and no matter who it was Cotto would have to be devoted to the man's cause because a trainer can only set someone on the path and keep them on that path, but they can not make someone believe what they are saying if the fighter does not want to believe in it.

            Although I'm still not convinced the incident with his Uncle was his fault. I think Evangelista seems like just as much of a stubborn ******* haha.

            But either way...Cotto's been surrounded by yes men. He needs someone with the balls to stand up to him. But even then, I don't know if he'd change. I can see him just nodding his head and continuing to do his own thing.

            It's frustrating.
            Yeap, he has.

            Na men, Miguel was the one to lbame, for their incident. They where argumin about some family matters, and Cotto eain the **** he is, he started talkin like he was donald trumph or something and told Evangelista, **** you and the boss around here and all kind of stuff.


            Evangelista took Cotto to another level, look how ****ty he have looked since he left Evangelista.

            Gassing, ealier, trying to be a boxer he aint and all that stuff.

            People can say anytihng about Evangelista, but he is a world class trainer!!!

            The prolem was, that Evangelista did had the guts to tell Cotto things, but Cotto is a stubborn SOB.

            Like I said if he doesnt Corect that attitude problem he is done as a elite fighter!

              HELL NO. mayweather sr. SUCKS. his personality especially. look how many times he was late for hatton's camps. he has no sense of responsibility.

              FREDDIE ROACH MUST BE COTTO'S COACH.

                  ..cotto's pride would not allow that..
                  That may be true though. But honestly a guy like roach would be great for cotto. I'll throw another name that people might be overlooking - Emmanuel Stewart. Cotto already has a hell of a jab, maybe Stewart can make him actually use it effectively for an entire fight.

                    Badweather will only worsen Cotto cuz' he himself is always a loser.

                      Well if it was family matters, Cotto had the right to get pissed, but he shouldn't have dumped Evangelista either.
