Before the Mosley fight, I would've considered him a strong candidate with the trajectory he was on. Now, I'd never vote for him, same as I wouldn't for Mosley. I don't know which portions of their career were authentic or enhanced.
Then why Cuevas/Gatti?
What makes Cotto sooooo special then to your eyes to get in?
Miguel Cotto is a 4 time world champion in 3 weight divisions.... hes not a cheater.... and he has one hell of a resume.
Margarito was a great welterweight with some amazing attributes- Volume punching, toughness, granite beard, always entertaining.
I dont know how long he was loading his wraps... I believe he did it before the Mosley fight... i mean you have to question his integrity because even the day he still claims not to know anything about the wraps in the mosley fight.... you're a veteran boxer, those are your hands how do you not know?
if he lies about that... why wouldnt he lie about other things... Shady dude.
however there are many shady characters in the HOF... and many on their way... even without the controversy i dont think hes quite there...
maybe beating Cotto in the rematch would have helped his case... but he didnt win a single round in the rematch... great welter of this era... short of HOF.
