    Great post

    Cotto has been a markee name and an elite fighter for a while wtf ppl

    If this is his last fight he had a great career and gave a young undefeated champion a great fight.

      Stop crying about Bob Arum you nicks.

      Lennox Lewis was screwed 1000 times as hard by Don King. He beat HOlyfield's azz red and he still got a 'draw'. he made the count against MCCALL I and was 'waved off'. He was ducked and avoided by Bowe and Tyson in the 90's.

      Bob Arum is a frocking SAINT compare to Don King.

        When your fanbase is that loyal, it's impossible not to be overrated.

            It's true, Cotto has always been thought of as an elite fighter, and he never really was. A very good fighter at his best, but he was never elite.

                  Cotto's a great fighter.Yes he was credited with a dubious win over Clottey and the way he beat Judah was obviously through fouling but he's a good fighter.He's not the best of this generation but he's one of the great fighters of this generation.It's just basically Mayweather,because on the Pacquiao fight I think weight took some power and steam from Cotto.If Pacquiao had not asked for a catchweight we would have known the truth so I still consider Cotto to be a great fight.Trout is a great fighter and very underrated but he's a technician.

                    Cotto was overrated until the Pac fight, after that he became underrated. I mean 90% of people here expected him to get "Gatti'd" by Floyd.

                      Right ,Cotto is overatted coming from a ****** that watches "my name is earl"..

                      If you're a real boxing fan you deep down appreciate Cotto for the amazing fights he's given us.

                      And this has everything to do with Hatton... If you like Hatton you obviously respect him and what he's done in boxing whcih is wrestling his way to his many victories...

                      Its safe to say you'd rather be watching WWE

                      Show some respect to a great fighter in the sport and get some fresh air you trolling mongolian

                      Cottos had ups and downs but he's only human and technically he is a great fighter with maybe not that great a defence but he's cool to watch and he's gotton through tough fights with heart,footwork and determination

                      Even when he was getting hit last night by a guy that dwarfed him he was still trying to come back ... he is a pure fighter and a real man..

                      I guess you can't relate to him being a real man though,internet warriors can't,I don't blame you
