    Comments Thread For: Forget Garden finale, Cotto earned his all-time label across years

    By Lyle Fitzsimmons - His permanent record will show that Miguel Cotto lost the last worthwhile prizefight he was in. Two years ago. He competed against a talented foe 10 years younger while operating on the fringe of a middleweight class in which he'd frequently claimed he barely belonged and rarely felt comfortable. Nevertheless, he was still on his feet after 36 minutes of competition...

      He was considered a hofamer in my book after the 1rst Margarito fight even thogh he lost. What he has done since makes him 1rst ballod worthy. But his will be the toughest class in history.

        Title is misleading. Hall of fame? Sure. First round? Nah. All time? Not even close.

            He was very good for his generation but he's not an all-time great not even in the top 15 at the weight WWE , JMW, or MW...

                He was good at following Mayweather and Pacquiao marketing strategy. That is it!!! Based on facts he did not win a single elite level boxing match and got gifts against Clottey and Mosley. He then become champ vs handicapped opposition in Martinez, Foreman, cant remember the others... and always fought for vacant belts... which means he was never crowned champ by dethroning the legitimate champ... and when he tried he failed!!! The marketing of his career on the other hand has been exceptional!!! That's why the majority of people and so called experts write stories such as this one!!!! True hardcore boxing fans know this, some will be in denial, and some are plane dumb!!!!
