Cotto interview with Fight Hype: "Without a doubt Mayweather the best I fought"

[champion4ever]

oh yeah and floyd did that for the fans too right? and cotto sucked above 147. he really never did anything good so he was "healthy" aka fat and comfortable but was he good? no.

Well that Pacquiao fight may have permanently ruined his career. So no, he wasn't the same fighter above 147.

He had a very short run at 154 (3-2). Obviously, 147 was his peak weight. So therefore, Manny probably shaved many years off his prime in that one fight.

The problem was Cotto probably had outgrown the division several years prior but was yet still cutting weight just to make the limit. I would have advised to move up after the Margarito loss.

Im calling you names because you are some weird twisted soul that is so infatuated with a hero its unhealthy and toxic.

You run around this forum spewing reams of propaganda with the mindset that you will fill the place up with stuff so you must be right.

Well youre not right kid, you are off in the head to the point of psychosis .

AS far as Cotto is concerned he was a % drained and it effected his performance, he has made comment of it a few times, off the pressure Arum put on him to take the fight, that he didn't want to put his 147 title up at 145 lbs its all there go find it.

Cotto is a very proud man he is not making excuses he is not even saying he would win without the CW, he is saying he was weight effected by the 145 CW and that he would never put his body through that again for another fighter.

So spin it any way you like to keep your hero on top of your bedroom shrine, its you who has got to live with your crazy, not me !

Not spinning anything. It's you who can't seem to grasp what a lb of weight is relative to Cotto signing the Dotted line in accepting the fight with Pacquiao.

Cotto also said before the fight: Puerto Rico’s Cotto, on the other hand, told the same website that he will make the weight.

“When we took this fight, we decided that we were fine with 145. We knew we could do it and we knew we would be at our best the next night,” he told DoghouseBoxing.com.

“We would not have taken this fight if we didn’t think I was going to be at my best the next night after the weigh-in,” he continued.

Now, that one pound you seem to make it a huge factor. Take a dump, and see if you lose a pound after that.

What sets Pac and Cotto appart is skill. And telling me Cotto is better @ 154 is why you are fuvked up in the head.

Prime Cotto is the weltwerweight division. Floyd toyed with Cotto because he was slow, old, battle worn and lethargic at 154. NOT HIS BEST WEIGHT. That's the big difference.

Not his best since the beating he took from Pac. If you don't want to listen to what I say.. listen to this dude below.

...and Manny fought Cotto who was battle-worn at a catchweight...

Margarito is the only person to beat Cotto and it very well could've been with illegal hand wraps.

Manny fought Cotto after Margs took his soul and then watched Clottey get a gift decision against Clottey (who bloodied Cotto up).

The fight happens at a catchweight with Miguel using a rookie trainer...

It's fine if you don't like Floyd's win over Cotto, but trying to make it Manny v Floyd (in terms of who had the better win) - I'll save you time.

Floyd had the better win against Cotto, Mosley, DLH, Hatton, and even JMM.

That doesn't mean Floyd's better than Manny (although he is), but Floyd fought fresher guys without a doubt.

Manny still a great fighter and probably HOF

lol so many excuse to up Floyd lololololol

Cotto was Battle worn after Margarito, but still has some left. If Cotto was battle worn, then he became even more battle worn after the beating Pac dished out, as a result. Floyd took out a walking zombie lmao


Cotto's testimony and previous fight shows. Getting to 145 is easy.


It was just 1 pound difference from his last fight prior to the Pacquio fight. So people using this argument is exaggerating.

I'm too lazy to post it, but Cotto's face after the Pacquaio fight looks like a botox surgery gone very wrong.

[Blond Beast]

I have Floyd favoured against anyone. Lucky enough to see him fight live. Crawford would be a great fight though.

[FinitoxDinamita]

What a liar. How is Pac not the best he has fought ?

Exactly, how can he be that blind. He was competitive with Floyd and demolished with Pac.

[hugh grant]

What a liar. How is Pac not the best he has fought ?

I wouldn't want to call miguel a liar. But miguel wouldn't want people to think Pac fought the best miguel as that means former flyweight best him. It's in miguel best interest to say cw effected him.
That's understandable but that shouldn't give people a license to not acknowledge Pac s win was more dominant, impressive and convincing than Floyd's win.
