Anyone else feel bad for Cotto?

[Buckfever]

This is a tremendous opportunity for him in terms of his legacy. Win or lose to have fought the very best, solidifies a legacy. Sure he has little chance but even if he just does okay, that's good. And you take punishment no matter what, might as well take the big paydays. I'm happy for him.

Cotto isn't done yet, especially now since he left Top Rank and Bob Arum



It's a whole new world when you leave the devil of boxing.

No.

Chance of a lifetime for Cotto. And he gets quite a nice paycheck either way.

[Slyboots]

Sure he's getting some nice dough for this fight, but if he gets outclassed in there like Floyd has done to so many of his opponents, then yes, I'd feel bad lol.

naw hes not done mayweather probably gets the win but im rooting for cotto.

tyson would never beat lewis. . even in his ever so short "prime" his hardcore fans claim from 85-88. . . lewis = tyson's kryptonite. . strong, powerful, rangy jab, and equal or geater power. .

Cotto will be able to retire quite young, have millions of dollars and be able to lay his face in his wife's large *******.

So no, I don't feel bad for him.

effin ditto...

After the last Mayweather fight we know he will resort to anything to win, to get an advantage. Personally think Cotto has a good chance if he can back up Mayweather but he's going to get tagged by counters big time.

I think Cotto might surprise everybody and be pretty competitive. And that's as much as anybody can really for from Cotto at this point, it would say a lot about him as a fighter if he wins around 4 rounds.

And it's hard to feel bad for a guy who's gonna rake in close to 15 million. I wonder how much Cotto has made up to this point compared to Trinidad?

Regardless of what happends, I don't see Cotto retiring after this one even if he loses badly. He might have a farewell fight in NY or Puerto Rico and call it a career, I don't see him sticking around if he's not one of the elites and belittle himself as a gatekeeper.

Cotto looks like he's on his way out and getting ready to retire. Do we really need to see him take more punishment? I really don't need to see him back pedal with his hand across his body and the other on his ear. Cotto's been in too many war's and took way too much punishment.

Cotto had trouble with freakin Clottey which was before the Pacquiao beatdown. I don't even know if I can watch Cotto get beat down. Lets Hope Mayweather takes sympathy and carries Cotto past late rounds.

Lets not forget why Cotto had trouble with Clottey. Cotto's eye had a huge cut and blood was getting in his eye from the 3rd round on.

Why should he retire? He's been looking good no matter if he's fighting cans or not. Look at Sergio when he fought a can in Barker, he didn't look good at all.
I wouldn't count Cotto out in this fight. If he were to somehow beat Floyd, he would be in for HUGE paydays in rematches with Floyd and Manny. I expect one of the best Cotto's to show up for this fight. And I also love Diaz as his new trainer.
