        In fairness, this might be because Cotto is fighting an actual bum in that footage as opposed to fighting an ATG in Manny Pacqiauo. Just saying.

          Dan I am aware that the guy is a tomato can but use your eyes to see the technique and the way he throws the punches. Answer me this - why is his jab full of crispness and able to be snapped back to defense in a fight with a tomato can, yet he could not throw a crisp jab to save his life against Pacquiao?

          He has not shown signs of the technique he had in his prime in years!

            Personally i believe although faded his technique isn't diminished in the Pacqiauo fight, the first 5 rounds he throws a crisp jab and crisp shots IMO. He just beats beaten by a better man and by the mid-late of the fight Pacqiauo has effectively beaten everything out of him.

            My question is when was Cotto shot? I mean, did he really look shot in the Clottey fight? I don't think so, he didn't look like the Cotto prior to Margarito, but shot? Not as far as I'm concerned.

            I agree with you Margarito literally snatched the prime out of Cotto, and Cotto was not the same fighter after that fight. But I personally don't believe he was shot. Faded? Yes, shot? No.

                It is obvious to me, and obviously to you too, that J Ro just wants to slanders resume and accomplishments for whatever reason, I don't know. And I agree, Oscar has one of the greatest resumes of the last 20 years. Like I said - throwback to the old time greats.
                I agreee that oscar has a great resume 1000% as does tito. I don't even really think that's debatable.

                floyd mayweather has nowhere near a great resume, unless someone is the type of person who throws the word great around loosely. mayweather has a good resume at 130-135 and a DECENT at best resume from 140-154. cotto, margs, shane, pac, clottey all have better resumes because they basically all fought each other.

                    What do you mean by resume? wins over opponents or just opponents?

                      So where can I watch more of Locche, only full fight I've seen of his was against Fuji, everything else has been small/ bad quality clips. Even through that I can say he had a great defense, but I'd like to see more. Love defensive fighters.
