    Who is more simliar to Trinidad. Diego Corrales or Miguel Cotto?

    I'm very bored as you can tell but.. just wondering about this

    people say that cotto is similar to trinidad but is he really? He has better boxing technique then trinidad but not sure if he actually has that one punch KO that trinidad had

    As far as Corrales, he has that vicious powerful left hook like trinidad. He can be outboxed by a pure boxer just like trinidad.

    anyway who would win in a match up right now at 140?

    Cotto moves in the ring way better than Tito. But he does have that bad defense like Tito. They also have weak chins, but Cotto's seems pretty bad.

    I think Chico is a better boxer than Tito but the power they have is similar in the way they can KO with one punch

      They're both overrated, especially Corrales. Cotto isn't going to go as far as most think. I think people are starting to realize it now. How can't you realize it? Cotto is the better boxer, than Chico or Tito, but he isn't that much better and doesn't stick with it. He'll get into a war that he can't get out of one day. Or he'll think his power is better than Mayweather's speed and get killed.

        tito has a better chin than both of them, or at least has better defense than either of them. tito is stronger than cotto and controls the ring better than deigo

          Corrales.

          Both are tall and skinny, with suspect chins (they do go down a lot), big power in their left hooks, and can be outboxed.

            Awesome!

            And they both have jabs that look EXACTLY the same..
            but I'd have to say Trinidad is more skilled..

              Tito actually use to be a good puncher-boxer, until he fell in love with his power.

                  No way man, Trinidad is 10 times more sharper with his punches than Torres was..

                    Diego is exactly like Trinidad..

                    Skinny with that ironic power and sling shot effect in the shoulders and no chin..

                    Cotto is more of a bulk fighter, with a shaky chin..
