Why doesn't Pac get the same credit for the Cotto win as Floyd's win over Canelo?

    If legitimate threads such as this warrant a ban than I guess you have to be a damn pansy to stay unbanned. It's like walking on eggshells around here.

        The problems is that when you are a star with so many fans you also have as many haters.

        Haters seem at times more outspoken.

        Pac has gotten full credit for that win by most level headed fans

          People tend to live in the moment and then they start to hate later on.
          there were people hating on the catch weight from the beginning because Cotto wasnt fighting at that weight and had a hard time making that weight

                  Honestly, I don't think the cw in either fight matters. I really don't It was a few pounds. It's not like anyone jumped a weight class. I will say that I think Canelo was in a lot better shape mentally going into the Floyd fight than Cotto was going into the Pac fight. Cotto is a more experienced figghter no doubt and I would not take than win away from Pac. He deserves credit. I feel Floyd deserves credit as well for beiting a guy who is naturally much heavier and who has Trout on ***** street like that. Both made it look easy. Great wins for both. Only a hater wouldn't recognize that.

                    Yup, Cotto gave Mayweather the most competive fight of recent years, avenged his Margarito loss with a KO (which Manny himself didn't KO Marg), lost in a competitve fight to Trout and is back looking good.

                    It's a highly underestimated win for Manny, and I believe Manny's stock is about to rise, because he beat Bradley and is being underrated of late.
