Saw Cotto in Orlando

[Gino Ros]

Was doing some shopping with the wife at the Florida Mall on black Thursday and was waiting to get my ride from the valet and my wife told me "Isn't that Cotto the boxer behind us?"
.

What is Black Thursday?

I agree Tinta, personality has a lot to do with it. I don't fault cotto because that's who he is.

At the same time though, I think if you are advertising yourself then you shouldn't act like your being bothered.

Like I said, i like Cotto, respect him as a fighter I just think the style match up is a bad one for him vs Marg. Unless Marg is somehow not the same fighter as he once was or that eye is seriously worse than people think, I see him beating Cotto.

I don't think either one of them are the same fighters to be honest. Marg has taken a lot of punishment, his eye is in question and Cotto just doesn't move or throw punches like he once did.

Plus the weight will be a bigger issue IMO. 154 lbs is going to benefit Marg much more this time around.

I wouldn't be mad if Cotto won though, like I said, I'm one of the few Mexican posters who respects and likes Cotto. His personality is a lot like mine.

Either way I expect an entertaining fight even if both are not what they were before their 1st meeting, Cotto needs to be crafty and look for a decision maybe the SSM gameplan where he boxes from the outside, grabs when Tony closes the distance, wait for the break, rinse/repeat.

No but like SSM he is much faster than Tony and throws straighter punches so he should be able to land 1st especially because Tony will be coming forward and vulnerable to getting hit clean the whole time.

Cool *****. I'd love to meet him someday.

Yea, Ive met Cotto by himself, and he was a bit as an @sshole..... He got mad when asked for a sig. or picture.....

It made me not like him even more... And as far as him being a family man, I put a pic on here of him a little drunk, and hitting in my best friends cousin. He was hitting in her from another table, and told her to take a pic with him.

I think I remember that. Was that around the time of the Pacquiao-Margarito fight? I think it was around that time.
