Do you agree with Mayorga getting a shot at Cotto?

[Twako]

El Matador is near retirement at 37, only fought once in 2 1/2 years and nowhere in the rankings.

While this is going to be a good barn burner of a fight, and the pre-fight hype and trash talk that comes always w/ Mayorga, if you talk about who deserves the shot more, I'd rather see Vanes or Angulo up there w/ Miguel.

arum is protecting cotto until the margo fight which will be a big pay day for both. there was no way cotto was going to face someone who was a threat

No disrespect to you TS but don't fall into this new B.S. that is spewed on NSB.

No one fights elite and top tier fighters each and every time. Boxing has never worked like that.

Look at the top 10 pound 4 pound

Marquez is fighting a shot Morales

Lopez is fighting sum untested scrub

Bute is fighting a nobody in McGee

Hopkins recently fought a journeyman in orenaleas and a shot Roy before his fight with Pascal.

Wlad faced Peter, a guy who has been done as an elite HW for a while

Manny is facing Mosley who is passed it

Martinez is more than likely gonna face a bum in Andy Lee.


Bottom line is this: Everyone fights inferior comp from time to time. It's cool as long as they step it up, something Cotto will no doubt do when he rematches Margarito in the summer and possible Martinez in the fall.

A fighter who lost only to, Mosley, Hoya, Trinidad, and outboxed by Cory Spinks I would say is pretty good. He does have other losses but they were like in his first 10 fights or so.

I dont know about anyone else and their obsessions with hating a fighter for whatever reason or liking them to the point where they call them "god".

But I like Mayorga and his antics and his ability to fight with alot of heart and entertainment.

Bottom line is maybe he dont deserve a shot but he deserves a payday and some respect as a fighter who gives his all, entertains the fans and wont let any fighter roll over him.

Thanks to Mayorga for keeping the fight game entertaining and giving his all. I will watch.

Mayorga is done and has been since Tito ruined him.

It happens.

I don't mind at all because Cotto will then face a top guy, it's typical of him.

Well they tried to get Vanes but HBO turned down 1.5mil. So since now it is an independent PPV. Then competition suffers and the money will not be there for Vanes.

Angulo is not relevant to the sport right now sadly he has some legal issues that he has to deal with first.

If we going by who really deserves a shot then is Austin Trout since he is the WBA #1 contender. Is an udefeated fighter. For sure has done just as much as Vanes and deserves it more than Mayorga.

[Squizz]

I'm all for it. I don't think Cotto is going to beat him very easily. Cotto SHOULD win, but it won't be easy.

Yep the Margarito rematch. And, I actually really want to see that one. Can't wait for it.
