    The only reason I keep repeating this is if his cousin reads the junk on here and he mentions that I prefer Cotto to stop getting hit in the head when theres no reason to anymore!!

    ......."Cotto go home, stay there, enjoy your children, don't listen to your moron fans who want every drop of blood you have left"

    the only commonality between fighter and fans is that most of them can't SEE when its time to leave!!! Ray.
    The fans aren't the ones making Miguel keep fighting. You heard him yourself in the Trout post-fight show, he doesn't know what else to do with his life. A problem a lot of these guys have.

      He's made alot of money in the sport i'm sure he can retire nicely and he just started his own promotional company he can keep busy with that when he retires.

          I'm not saying that he shouldn't.

            IDK, man as a huge Cotto fan it's hard for me to swallow but I think he's at the finish line. This era is closing. Cotto looks done, Manny just got brutally KO'd, Floyd is noticeably slowing, etc...

              I agree with this wholeheartedly. I like Cotto, but he just doesn't seem to have the passion for boxing anymore. It's like he's just going through the motions. Even though he'll walk through fire and give a good account of himself in all his fights, he doesn't seem to take the preparation for the fight seriously enough which makes him lose more fights than he should. I also agree that he shouldn't be at 154. That's a cop out to not put in the extra training time to make weight at 147.

                    There are always excuses when he loses.

                    Lets face it. Everytime the guy stepped up, he lost.

                    Margarito = Lost
                    Pacquiao = Lost
                    Mayweather = Lost
                    Trout (who is barely world class) = Lost

                    Cotto's best win is past prime Mosley
                    We'll see who has the better career at the end of the day between Cotto and the clown in your sig!

                      Hogg guy is a hater. He calls Cotto Lazy and says Cotto has a quitters attitude....too much emotion in his opinions.

                      I do on the other hand believe Cotto is past his prime and is shot. I tell everyone Cotto has been shot since before Margarito 2.
