Do you think that Cotto now is better than he WAS pre-Marg/Pac

[Earl-Hickey]

It's an interesting question, certainly Cotto has sewn up a fair number of previous frailties, he has better movement, and tightened up his overall technique, however I still get the feeling that he could fall apart at any given moment, sure he has looked good against his recent opponents however I just feel that against the elite he will unravel.

I also feel he was more confident, and more free flowing with his fighting before.

opinions?

I voted 'about the same.' He went straight from being a protected Top Rank youngster to being an overrated Rican.

He seems more manufactured now, like Floyd, but doesnt seem to come natural for him.

When he was an animal that is what bought him fame and attention way back in the day. But Pac and Margarito fought a better cotto. Please ignore the fact cotto is saying he feels well now, as he said he felt well before fighting Pac at 145 but people dont listen to what he said before the Pac fight so dont listen to him now. He beat Margarito Pacs brutal leftovers and no one has criticise him for it, yeet criticise Pac for demolishing Margarito, double standards as usual.
Margarito fought a cotto who underestamated Margarito though with the plaster.

Margo Beat That Ass Fair And Square.

Pre Margarito Cotto was a better physical fighter. But he may be smarter now due to better coaching. But not nearly as good physically as he was before Margarito.

[chibomber]

I say he is smarter now, more patient. As far as his physical strength he has only been tested once which was with a guy that beat him before in Margarito, and this time at 154. The test coming up on May 5 will be a good measuring stick to see where he is at really.

He's a damaged, shot mess

[Check]

I'd say about even. Things he used to do well, he has replaced. Instead of being physical and using body shots, he replaced it with experience and boxing ability.

He's a damaged, shot mess

Damaged I can agree with, shot is too much IMO. What has he shown that makes you feel he is shot? Mosley is shot to pieces to me!

[STREET CLEANER]

It appears that he has a better coach and more experience but he has been in alot of wars and his body might not be able to keep up any more once it starts taking damage.
