Comments Thread For: Cotto: My Brother, a 135-Pounder, Badly Hurt Canelo

exactly dude, cotto is ****** to think thats the same Canelo, he's much better than before, plus he was a kid then, now his more of a man all grown up!

Yet you and all the other Canelo fans think it's the same Cotto that fought Trout or Manny/Marg? The irony lol.

did i say they were the only ones? i compared them to children, which, if you watched their rhetoric concerning sergio martinez and his level of deterioration at the time of the cotto fight, is appropriate.

they finally shut up when sergio retired, and admitted to being hardly able to train or spar in the lead up to the cotto fight. he was all done, was martinez, by the time cotto got to him. there wasn't a more shot fighter with a world title on the planet. he was a purely athletic fighter who had lost all of his athleticism. he had nothing left. cotto's fans acted like he was prime, and that it was a great win. that guy wouldn't even fight golovkin.

go look for interviews from lou dibella on the subject of fighting gennady golovkin while sergio was still champion. you're not gonna like what you see they weren't willing to fight golovkin. they took the cotto fight.


this tactic you are using is called a strawman. you ignore somebody's argument and make your own.

wasn't even attempting to argue. when you issue a blanket statement that all Rican are this and that its difficult to find any credence in what you have to say outright... u usually post pretty fair and reasonable. on this occasion, didn't appreciate the shiet talk! that is all nothing more nothing less!

frankly for *** sakes Cotto should be fighting GGG so dont know where you are coming from with the remainder of your post, and for the record, this fight is a toss up and win or lose won't effect Cotto's legacy, which will be tainted if he wins and doesn't fight ***in GGG

control your little buddies if you don't want me to make mention of their childish attitude toward cotto's accomplishments and handling at middleweight.

I'm taking into account getting better as a fighter, not just his chin. Cotto's gotten better, are you saying he hasn't? The only person who really hasn't changed much is Canelo. He's better than when he fought Jose for sure, but he's not any better than when he fought Floyd.

[gmc_rfc_06]

Yeah, this is irrelevant.

Canelo has grown a lot, physically, and now has a very solid chin. His neck and back thickness being key reasons. He's also a far better fighter.

Miguel himself was almost knocked out by Torres, a 140lb fighter...does that still hold weight? No.

[SN!PER]

Miguel's bro got stopped by a skinny teenager.

Unfortunately for Cotto, Saul got freaking huge. He could go to MW, maybe even SMW.

If he thought Pacquiao's punches hurt, wait until Canelo traps him in a corner and starts unloading combinations on him.

It's difficult to tell if he's improved under Roach. He's looked better but the competition under Roach has been piss poor. That in itself makes it far harder to assess any improvement on Cotto's part.

Canelo may not be any better with regards to his tangible boxing skills, but he's become more experienced and has become a better fighter since the Mayweather fight.

the mere fact that you think that I can control anyone on NSB/BS is preposterous. Each to their own but the childishness is not limited to Boriquas for certain...

[elfag]

Is cotto going to do a post fight interview after he looses this one or is he going to go running to his dressing room crying about how he was robbed or it was stopped early?
