Comments Thread For: Roy Jones: Sadam Ali Beating Miguel Cotto is NOT a Huge Upset!

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

There was no fairytale ending for four division world champion Miguel Cotto, who suffered a very unexpected upset decision loss to Sadam Ali (26-1) on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden in New York. The curtain came down on Cotto's glorious 17-year career but not to script as Ali captured the WBO junior middleweight title before a shocked crowd that was filled with 12,391 fans - made up of largely of Puerto Rican fight fans who came to support the 37-year-old icon in his retirement fight.

dont really think any half decent fighter beating cotto can be seen as a 'huge upset'. hardly invincible is he

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

Lmao. I laughed my ass off when I heard hbo talking about this win was going to take Ali to stardom. Ali did not even look like a B level fighter last night. He’s a c level fighter

umm he was 14/1 roy, that is literally what a huge upset is.

ANDRADE,CHARLO,LARA would have destroyed COTTO last night!

Give SADDAM ALI much credit for outgoing him and give COTTO credit for being a warrior.

A tear to the bicep is a huge disadvantage for Cotto, he fought well when you consider that injury.
Never liked his style but he brings it in his fights and thats to be admired in any fighter.
Call it a day, his legs are pretty shot as shown by his reactions to temple shots. When your legs lift from punches your at the end.
If Ali poured it on for 2 consecutive rounds he would have stopped Cotto.

Very solid career and a good fighter no where near great!

best of luck for Cotto.

Ward shouldn't get in. You should have to win fights cleanly to get into the hall of fame. Using your head on opponents' faces to cut them and head-butting them to the balls shouldn't be acceptable to the Hall of Fame... JS...
