Comments Thread For: Cotto Turns Down Cintron, Vanes: Latin Fury Planned

WTF, youre acting like no one loses, unless you only care about Floyd how can you knock a fighter for taking a risky fight and losing.

dude ,Agbeko is not a threat and Dirrell is just a boxer,no punch.

Cotto doesn't really have any interesting opponents to fight right now, so it's hard for me to criticize him. He did duck Angulo in my opinion though. HBO would've accepted that fight and they don't want to touch Cintron with a ten foot pole after the bitch shit he pulled in the Williams fight. So I can't be mad at Cotto for not going in that direction. I don't know if that immigration stuff is really true about Angulo. So I'll hold judgement on that. And guys like Bundrage and Vanes do nothing for Cotto. Berto is an overpaid brat, and Cotto obviously deserves the lion's share against him. I can call Cotto a bitch for sitting out for the rest of the year and display my hater attitude, but he would've gotten more criticism from me if he fought a guy that was no good. And Bundrage and Vanes in my view are not good. Neither is Cintron.

Bob arum is saving Cotto for the winner of pacquaio vs margarito. That way its all top rank....

You Sir, are observant..... go to the top of the class.

Cotto and Cintron have fought the same level of competition and have had pretty much the same level of success the past 3-4 years:

Cotto -- Pac, Tony Marg, Clottey, Shane, Judah, ect...

Cintron -- Tony Marg twice, Martinez, Angulo, Paul Williams. ect...

What the hell are you talking about? These two guys need to fight... Kerm always respected Miguel and altough Kerm was born in PR he grew up and was groomed in the US and Michael probably looks at him like he isn't a real Boriqua... So in that case they NEED to rumble... It would be an awesome fight...

Read the thread again as I'm not questioning who Cintron has fought nor the level of competettion he has faced. My point is that because of the level of competetion that Cotto has face it is dumb/****** to consider Cotto is ducking Cintron for wanting to take the rest of the year off.
I did say that the guys that Cotto has face are on a higher level than Cintron is, and I stand by that.

The only level of comparison we can go by, to compare Cotto and Cintron is Margarito, and Cotto was more of an opponent to Margarito than Cintron was because Cotto dominated almost have of he fight (6 rounds) while Cintron didn't last 11 round in 2 fights. I would beleive that people would give Cotto more of a chance to beat Margarito in a rematch than what they will give Cintron on a 3rd fight against Martgarito.

Having said that, I do beleive that Cintron is a real threat to Cotto and it will be a very interesting entertaining fight that i would like to see also. I see him more dangerous that JCCJ.

I'm well aware on how Cintron was raised and he is a true PuertoRican. He had to move to US because of the death of his mother and was raised by his uncle and it was his uncle who help him thru his 1st steps in boxing. It's a very nice story and I will always wish him the best.

However I will still consider dumb and ******, that somebody would say that Cotto is ducking Cintron because he will take the rest of the year off knowing the opponents that Cotto has already face and is willing to face in the future. Or do we forget that he has already said that he would face the winner of Pacquaio/Margarito which are way more dangerous for Cotto than Cintron.

Ah, ok. I got you.

More power to the dude though. Calling his own shots and not being puppeted around.

I agree, even thou he waited this long in the game to start calling shots.....

I don't see Miguel as a ducker either just would like to see these two guys in the ring... It would be an entertaining fight to say the least...
