Miguel Cotto at his peak. Would you consider him a GREAT fighter?

[timboslice708]

Floyd has lost more than a step from where he was in his prime, while you could argue Cotto is in his prime, and altho cotto "lost well" I don't really consider that a competitive fight, Floyd had it under control, if he still had his legs you could certainly envision a shut out

Your smoking some good crack, if you thought cotto was in his prime for that Floyd fight! Wtf.......shocked as **** .gif

[deliveryman]

These polls are utterly meaningless, unless you give a concrete definition of "great".

[SCtrojansbaby]

Floyd isn't A level? Because he neither stopped nor shut Cotto out.

The judges gave Cotto two pity rounds but it was basically a shut out.

[LeG00N]

That's nowhere near good enough to be considered a great fighter

Discussion over

wow, El Angel got owned....and I somewhat like him as a poster

[SCtrojansbaby]

to answer the thread, he's the best puerto rican "boxer" i've seen, one of my favourite fighters and seriously does anyone know a boring miguel cotto fight?

You've never seen Ivan Calderon? You didn't watch the Yuri Foreman fight?

never seen the calderon one
didn't think the foreman one was boring

[freedom213]

No.

Gave us some great fights but not a great fighter.

I am a big fan but if we are talking about putting him on the level of the greats like Ali, Sugar Ray Rob/Leonard or Duran, Joe Louis, no way thats a short list.

[Earl-Hickey]

There is nothing wrong with Cotto not being a "great" btw

he's been a fantastic TV fighter, entertaining, memorable, popular, made millions.

not bad at all

The 2nd half of the Pac fight.

[BoxingGenius27]

At his peak, Cotto was a winner. He had many flaws so I wouldn't call him a great "fighter", but since he was a winner and knew how to get the win, that's what made him a great fighter; not his technical fighting skills.
