  • Still a big fan! We have to destroy the modern mindset that once fighters lose they are done. This is creating unusually high expectations from the fighter's perspective, where upon taking a loss they are bombarded with negativity. We are destroying our fighters by not backing them unconditionally, this helps them overcome their loss and work on their flaws.

    PR's are especially horrid in this regard. I am disgusted by the general disdain for Cotto and calls for his retirement from Puertoricans even though he put up a valiant effort and would have given anyone hell on Saturday night. You have to bring two bags to this game, only one can win, and anyone can lose. It's part of the game. Losing should not be the end, of course when fighters are getting beat up constantly (like Mosley who should have retired) and have clearly lost more than just a step the argument becomes valid.

    Keep on truckin' Cotto! You made this fan proud!

        • I was always big on Cotto and I think that he showed why he's been one of the best fighters of the past decade.

          He really fought well and made a lot of fans proud.

                • Difference in power between 8oz and 10oz gloves?

                  Anyone with experience able to comment on how much difference those 2oz make? Would the Mayweather Cotto fight have gone down differently if they were in 8s? Specifically I'm thinking of all those right hooks hitting Cotto clean to the face, and then obviously the final round. Would there have been substantially more damage, a KO, or is the difference negligible? Thanks.
