    Harris: Cotto is no Tito!

    "Puerto Rico has had some great fighters, but you're not up there with them and I'll prove it to you" was the chilling message sent to Miguel Cotto by WBA super lightweight champion "Vicious" Vivian Harris. "My favorite fighter is Tito Trinidad and when I heard people comparing Cotto to Trinidad it bothered me. Trinidad has real heart and takes on all comers, Cotto relinquished his number one spot rather than face me. Cotto doesn't have half the heart Tito has, if he did he'd have fought me when he had the chance. I will give him the chance to fight me. HBO I hope you're listening I want the big fights and I'll bring my belt to the table."

    I don't know how many times Cotto has to say that he doesn't pick his competition and it is all left up to Top Rank. All he does is train and fight.

    I think Cotto dismantles him just like he did to Pinto.

      I couldnt care what Harris says anyway, i doubt the rest of the boxing world does either!!

      He's a bull****er with no fans, which means a no money fight for Cotto! I dont think Cotto has anything to prove against Harris anyway, Harris hasnt exactly had a big fight yet!!

      Cotto definitly has the ability to be as good as Tito, he's not at his level yet but he's only young.

        Cotto just took apart the man who clearly "beat" Harris in Bailey, a guy Harris "never" rematched.

            I like Cotto alot but he gets to much credit for beating bums. The only good win he had was against N'Dou and we still dont know how good he really is anyway. Since then he has faught garbage and people go crazy. What would any of the top guys at 140 do to Pinto, and Baily. Harris would be something different and I dont know if Cotto is ready for that

                IMO Cotto will KO Harris. Cotto has good defense, puts punches together well, patience & punching power. He will wear him down.

                  Are we talking sparring or a mistake with fighters? Because Olivera who got took apart by Hatton(on same night as Cotto vs Bailey) cleary beat Harris.

                    How many divisions do you think Cotto will end up moving up by the end of his career?

                    Who currently in the 140-147lb. division do you think has the perfect style to defeat Cotto?
