    Miguel Cotto and quiting in fights

    A lot of people gave this guy crap for quitting in the Marg fight, but I don't think its fair to judge any fighter who quits. They are the ones taking the punches, not us. By buying tickets to their fights, we get the right to watch them fight, not to die for our entertainment. I felt that the last couple of rounds of his Pac fight were disturbing and uncalled for and I feel he hung in their to prove all his doubters wrong.

    I hope Cotto wins his next fight and then retires.

    Anyone here agree or disagree?

            its the trolls who usually bring this up. **** like that is apart of boxing. when you're beat, you're beat. I'm not gonna bring up "possible circumstances,and substances" either. it is what it is.

                  I completely agree, its not like the trolls are even going to visit him in hospital if something bad happens to him. Most of them most probably watched the fight for free.

                    Corner people sometimes don't have their fighters best interest at heart Benn McClellan comes to mind
