Maybe he's just losing his mind.

Trinidad fought everybody in good time span.

Cotto aint fightin real comp.

Cotto aint ta new Trinidad. NO WAY in ma opinion.

[spinksjinx]

Cotto should fight Tszyu and then schedule a fight against Mayweather or Hatton.

[DANGER13]

big trinidad is right. say wat ever u want bout tito, he did get dominated in sum fights, pero he fought da best and was very exciting. one of the eras best, best boriqua fighter ever. ***en awseome to bad he's dun now as 4 cotto, he needs to step up his competion quick, cuz if he keeps fightgin chupms da onlyy people who are gona have respect 4 him are the people from puerto rico, and that aint enough fans to reach "supertar" level like a de la hoya, trinidad n ect.

That old mofo is just jealous…

Whoa, never expected to hear it from you!

I think Cotto will be the greatest thing to come out of Puerto Rico since Wilfredo Benitez..

[InThisCorner]

When he steps up the competition now. Only decent fighter he's beaten to date is Corley.

[Tha Greatest]

Why the hell is everyone pushing him so fast while his getting EXPERIENCE!?

**** up haters!

[.::EnRiQuE::.]

Thanx to you mofo...

LOL!! u gotta admit cotto looked like he just got sum ***** after dat pic...you should put it up...its awesome!!!

[Mech.]

I agree! papa trinidad tells it how it is! cotto is nothing more then a blown up guys, he will never have the fans like trinidad! he fights nobodies! he needs to fight, gatti, hatton, mayweather, harris and the rest of the guys in the mix.

First off,**** all you haters,papa trinida included BITCHES

gatti=DAMMIT PEOPLE,when will you learn gatti just isnt very good,he's entertaining,thats it,get over it.

HARRIS=HARRIS!? get the **** out of here with that ****.

hatton/mayweather=Yeah well they havent fought each other either have they? And whose hatton fighting next? The guy who KTFO harris? The guy who cotto already beat?Oh yeah him..

Lastly,Cotto dosent get enough credit for the guys he's fought,I think Abduallev would have given any of these other fighters a tough time,cotto stopped him,but i know he wont get credit for it,and i know why,he wont get any credit until Abduallev KO's the next Harris right? I'd like to see Maywether fight a Torres his next fight on short notice instead of a sharmba mitchell.

Cotto aint ta new Trinidad. NO WAY in ma opinion.

Good,trinidad was one dimensional.KO power isnt everything,but what am i saying,Im talking to a Pacfan

Borikua is speechless.

Peace out bitches.Keep hating.

Good articulo, what happened to the old picture in your avatar? Look like Cotto was taking it from Trinidad.

From El Nuevo Día:


On Miguel Cotto:

"For another Tito Trinidad to arise... that will be difficult for a couple of reasons. First, you need to be talented, as Tito was, second, you need to have the discipline he had when training, and third, you need a person with a healthy lifestyle, that does not smoke or drink. Let's suppose that person actually exists: then you will need the fourth part, and that is good management. You won't get anywhere if you don't have anyone looking out for you properly.

The job of a manager is to protect his boxer's interests, like I did. I considered Campas easier to beat than Oba Carr, and we found out that was true. Campas was out in four and Carr lasted eight.

It has been said Miguel Cotto could be Tito's substitute. He has everything to do it... ¿does he have the management? I don't know. But he does have the industry on his side, unlike Tito. Miguel just needs what Tito had... the fans. Cotto can make as much money as De La Hoya did. Oscar had the industry behind him, but not the fans, because people know when you are 100% natural or when you are fake... when you take competitive fights or when you take easy fights.

That's what's happening to Miguel Cotto; he's fighting bums... they are inflating his record and everybody knows that. If Cotto keeps doing that, fans won't give him respect. Cotto has to face the best fighters in his division. He could have faced Arturo Gatti, instead he chose Gianluca Branco (now Ricardo Torres).

Your place in boxing will be determined by your record against proven fighters. Cotto won a vacant belt, but he hasn't fought a champion yet. It's not about being a titleholder for an organization, like he is now, it's about beating a world champion. To be a world champion, you have to beat a world champion.

To get to the top he has to face Gatti, a good, lucrative fight to secure his future. He has to take risks. For example, when Tito fought "Macho" Camacho, he was only 21, and he was facing a fighter that had already been 3 time world champion, way more experienced and with good technique."
