      good fighters lose to other good fighters.

      great fighters rarely lose to good fighters unless there's some age/weight disparity.

      cotto, margarito, trout are good fighters.

      dejesus, duran are great fighters. there's a difference.
      Cotto is good and lost to good fighters. Duran was great and lost to great fighters. Which is basically the same thing bro. And my original point was that it's ok to lose to others good or great fighters.

Come one bro...... And u keep on saying a "blown featherweight" like as if Manny was some lil punk that wasn't ****ing up everyone at 147 except for Floyd at that time.
        delahoya was schooling tito. i say that as a big tito fan.

        delahoya ran because his idiot corner told him he was ahead.

        delahoya didn't give up. he just fought dumb (OR SMART CONSIDERING TITO COULD KO YOU AT ANYTIME)

        cotto gave up like 4th round iirc. whichever round it was when he starting giving his pops the sad puppy face and kissing him.

            Lmao it's sad and pathetic that he actually did on one card, think it was Jerry Roth's if I'm not mistaken.

              Cotto lost to a good fighter in Trout... a great fighter in Pacquiao and another one in Floyd.... and a cheater in Margarito.

                never said it wasn't ok. losses happen.

                but the fact he loss or struggled to just good fighters and never beat great fighters show his true level.

                he's good not great.

                    Ok and the only great fighters today are like Floyd and Manny. And he happened to have to fight them and he lost. Big deal. Had he been a bigger guy fighting in a division that doesn't have two greats like Manny and Floyd, he would probably be an ATG like Golovkin.

He fought margarito twice which took a lot of balls and would have been a nightmare psychologically for most people. Sure he's passed it now and very annoying but he had an excellent career. Not de la Hoya, Trinidad level, but great nonetheless.
