Comments Thread For: Steward: Cotto Looking For a Statement With Mayorga

[Aracibo04]

your right but I dont see cotto being dominant, when was the last time cotto was dominant at all???alfonzo gomez or that dude from england? jennings? cotto at best is as good or even worse than mayorga. mayorga has better wins than cotto does , and frankly anybody saying this is an easy cotto win is frankly ranking cotto too high, cotto is a name he hasnt looked good since margs hes sooo shot.
cotto needs to stop chasing ghosts and retire its over for him where it counts at the elite level, he just sullying his legacey.

Can you change that dumb as looking avatar you have?

by the way, the last 5 fights cotto had where against:
07-26 -- Antonio Margarito,
02-21 -- Michael Jennings,
06-13 -- Joshua Clottey,
11-14 -- Manny Pacquiao,
06-05 -- Yuri Foreman

The only one that was a tune up for Cotto was Jennings. And Yuri Foreman was dominated by Cotto even with out the messed up knee. And yes an argument can be made that Foreman was not the best but it was Cotto's first fight at 154.
Did you happen to see the fight between Mosley and Mayorga? Mayorga was IMO cleary beating Mosley and if it is not for that last second KO Mosley looses. Mayorga is not a finesse guy but he cannot be underestimated.

Anyway, anyone wanna bet?

How is beating a shot Mayorga proving he can hang with Margarito and Pacquiao? Mayorga hasn't been good in years.

This kinda **** really pisses me off.
Takes a cherry picker to know a cherry picker right? Talk about beating shot opponents... smh (Same Mayorga who went to to toe with Shane Mosley for a near Split decision not too long ago right? yea..same old mosley who managed to KO Margarito afterwards)
How surprising is it that now as Shanes performance has receded, the pound for pound king decides to finally man up and face him in copping yet another name off Cotto's resume, albeit at a much later stage in their career per usual. Don't eeeeeeven bring the filipino into this. Mexicutioner Pacman of old was a beast, this current version of Manny is an opportunist, damn congressman makes a mockery out of winning titles and imposing his will on Boxing. The sport needs more warriors like Cotto, who will bring it no matter what odds. People like him don't make absurd demands or choose silly opponents who are 10:1 underdogs. They take any challenge.
