is Miguel Cotto a Hall of Famer?

[sigrab jr]

If Cotto is a HOFer then Pacquiao and Mayweather are top 10 ATG's.

[jrosales13]

Any Cotto fans care to explain how a fighter who has never been THE CHAMP at his weight can be considered a HOFer?

Not only that but what big win does he have. Yes he beat Mosley but that was a close fight and he has been destroyed by Margarito and Pac.

Surely he needs to have a few more good wins before he merits the HOF.

What do you mean has never been the champ? He is a 3 divisional champ.

Now if you talking about lineal champ. Then OK I see your point. So is that what you saying? Lineal champ?

[BigStereotype]

That is funny cuz I have heard Floyd stans say that Corrales, Castillo, and Gatti are HOF'ers.... Funny ****

How fans come up with stuff like this I would never know.

Castillo definitely is, Corrales probably is and I really want Gatti to be, but based purely on boxing, he probably isn't. But if you factor in popularity, Thunder is definitely a HOF'er.

this...



come on man...yuri foreman?

Has cotto EVER won a linear title?

he has always won the vacant title with the exception of yuri foreman.

and again ill say...yuri foreman?????

What does that mean? Since he has never won a lineal title he is not a HOF'er?

[Chunk..]

I know about Marquez which is why I said Paq's hardest fight in 1 or 2 years. Diaz wasn't ****, DLH wasn't ****, Hatton wasn't ****... Yea Cotto was really Manny's first test in moving up from 130.

Hatton wasn't on Paquioa's level, but to say he wasn't a test for Pacquiao at that time when Hatton was the man at 140(Lineal champ for a good number or years) and 'wasn't ****', is an idiotic thing to say.

Ricky Hatton gets ****ted on way too much on here.

Castillo definitely is, Corrales probably is and I really want Gatti to be, but based purely on boxing, he probably isn't. But if you factor in popularity, Thunder is definitely a HOF'er.

Castillo definitely is not a HOF'er. He is not first ballot material.

Corrales shouldn't be either. Especially first ballot. If he does get in it should take a long time for him to get in.

Gatti? No...

At best they're borderlines just like Cotto.

People have low criteria when it comes to HOF I see.

[freeloada]

definately a HOF'er

only people that i notice saying no are avid Cotto haters.. not suprising.. I wouldnt say 1st ballot but he will definately be there one day..

[DrewWoodside]

ive heard some pacquiao stans say he is

Lets see:

2 Losses both brutal... to Margarito and Pacquiao

Best win is a close win over Shane Mosley (Floyd dominated him) and a beating of Zab Judah (Floyd already beat him) and barely beat Joshua Clottey, infact the second time I scored it I had Clottey winning compared to the first time where I had Cotto winning by a point.

Other than that he has wins over Paulie Malignaggi (A guy Amir Khan and Ricky Hatton dominated), Carlos Quintana (We know what happened after the Cotto fight), and Ricardo Torres (Who???)

So the simple question is, Hall of Famer or Not?

This is just straight up noob posting.

[The_Demon]

Accidentally voted no

ye hes a future HOF'er

Yeah, I guess I do.

I don't think Castillo is first ballot material, but he was a GREAT fighter and I really feel he's a Hall of Famer for sure.

Corrales should take a while, but he should get it, half on boxing ability and half on his popularity. Also, how can you deny half of the fight of the decade?

And Gatti...I just want him to make it. I loved Gatti. What a heart he had. That's just me nuthugging him and probably upping him too much after his death.
