    Shot is RJJ, Cotto to me seems fine, BoxingScene totally overuses the term Shot. he def has some wear on him though

      Cotto is shot. He got TKO'd twice in his last 5 fights in brutal fashion. He got a gift split decision against Clottey because the fight was in his backyard. His win against Yuri Foreman wasn't even that good of a win because Yuri had something wrong with his leg that fight.

          Hes had some good fights and not trying to take anything away from him. But Cotto has a questionable chin. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets knockdown/knocked-out in the Mayorga fight.

            PPl act like Yuri walked in the ring crippled, he was fine for 7 rounds and I think was totally surprised at Cotto's ability and skill.

            I would call that brutally being TKO'd either he took alot of punishment and Bayless saw enough in both fights, he has never been on dream street where he was unable to reach a 10 count.

                    Cotto has had it ok for a little while. It's a difficult question.


                    If he can face a pressure fighter now and handle him, I'd say no.


                    Is Mayorga that guy nowadays? I don't know that either.


                    After two strong pressure fighters in Pac and Margarito, he hasn't faced similar since.

                    Jennings and Foreman didn't exactly fit the mold of guys who could beat Cotto, guys that hurt him and force him to fight off his back foot.




                    I think Cotto fought pretty well lately against the right type of opponents.

                    He's certainly not through and can beat most guys most nights.

                    The best in the division I don't know.

                    Just becuz he might not beat the best in the division doesn't necessarily mean he is shot.
                    Just not the best.
