Comments Thread For: Cintron Waiting in The Wings For Cotto Bout, December 3

[Mr. Fantastic]

Only two fights since coming to 154 one was a title fight that some thought would be an upset and the other a weak defense for a payday. Let's see what happens next before we say a guy with the track record of Cotto is a protected fighter.

An easy fight fight for the taking in Foreman and you even said it, a weak defense for a payday. That's nothing. I can see **** like that coming from Chavez Jr., but not Cotto. If you get what I'm saying.

Cotto is protected at this moment, I said even Margarito when he gets back as well. Don't be a delusional nuthugger. This is very easy to see on how Cotto is getting milked now.

It was Emanul Steward (Cintron's former trainer) who was telling Cotto not to take the fight last year when it came up. Steward knows Cintron has the power to knock Cotto out.

You think a match between Cotto and Cintron in MSG wasn't on Arums mind when he signed Kermit? Ok buddy

Um not really. Cotto at this point would get murked by someone decent 154+ with power and Arum knows he can't make Cintron into a Cotto-like star at this point. Cintron has a better chance to fight Pac than Cotto. That's my 2c.

Like I said, if it ends up Cotto vs Cintron, I'm going to be shocked as hell. Cintron has been calling out Cotto for years now and he never rose to the challenge, what makes you think he'll do it now?

How am I being a delusional nuthugger lol? Arum wants Cotto in with Pacquiao, Margarito, Cintron and Chavez who would outweigh him by about 25 pounds I wouldn't call that protected.

Ok whatever you say Arum brought Cintron in to Top Rank and the last option he has for Kermit is Cotto because he doesn't want Cotto to lose lol.

Arum already put him in with Pac and Margarito at 147. Only reason he would put him in with those 2 again is for his last big payday. You know as well as I do Jr. ain't shit and Jr. could weigh 250+ and Cotto would still murder that fraud.

Also, it's not who you going to say you're going to fight, it's who you actually fight. So far after Pac, nothing special apart from beating Foreman who is just as bad as Chavez Jr., if not a bit better.

I never said it was the last option. Just know it wasn't the first how you make it out to be.

For those of you saying Cintron smashes Cotto now.....at what point in his career, in his big fights, has Cintron done anything but totally fall apart, jump out the ring, fake headbutts, or end up crying?

Angulo, any others? I'll wait...

This fight makes perfect sense. Thought they would wait until next year around the PR day weekend and put it in MSG or Yankees Stadium, probably will be the plan if Margarito can fight in the winter. He should retire though, no need to go blind.

Actually I think Cintron Cotto was what Arum had in mind when he signed Kermit. What do you think was the first option Arum had for Kermit???
