Lots of respect for Cotto

[DiegoFuego]

Cotto has been fighting name opponents as long as I can remember, and that's very respectable. This fight with Quintana coming up is even more respectable. A lot of people say Cotto can't handle a good boxer, so what does he do? Goes out and finds one to prove it against. I always pull for Cotto to win because I always support guys that make the fights people want to see. Malignaggi and Branco may not have had impressive resumes, but they were fights people wanted to see. Branco gave Gatti all he could handle in 2004, and Cotto went in there and dislocated the guy's shoulder. Then Malignaggi came out of nowhere early this year, talking **** and what not, so Cotto signs to fight him and shut him up. It didn't matter that Malignaggi was unproven and unknown outside of his mouth. The fight was still appealing, and Cotto took it, even though we all knew nothing about Malignaggi. Who fights an opponent they don't know **** about? Miguel Cotto. I hope he pulls out the win in December because this guy could be one of boxing's biggest stars at the rate he is going.

Oh and mad props to his management. They really got their **** together.

Cotto will be a beast at 147, without having to wreck himself down to 140 (which would leave him jaded for the fight).

I thought Quintana was fighting Arnaoutis? What happened to that?

[Toddy]

i have big respect for cotto hes an amazin fighter but i cant say i know what his personality is like so therefore i cant say anythin about that

[+= El Jefe=+]

his fight VS Torres showed the kind of balls he has

[eazy_mas]

It beast with other beast that could hanld his power and trade back the same power.

If he goes up he should depend more on his boxing skills rather than power and his chin was tested against Torres.

Yes Torres could punch but if someone at 147 could punch and Cotto did the same he could be in a lot of trouble

[Shanus]

He's one of the most entertaining fighters today, but I don't think his chin will hold up against the Welters.

[PATO 1]

his fight VS Torres showed the kind of balls he has

it also showed what kina chin he had

[+= El Jefe=+]

it also showed what kina chin he had

and i dont think many boxers would have stood up afterwerds and do what he did

[STEELHEAD]

i don't know. i like cotto. but think he has been brought up in baby steps.he's had tougher times with opponents that people thought he should of walked through. his power isnt proven to me. feel he's going to have a tough time hanging with upper class welters. quintana who's a genuine welter/lt middle will be a true test for cotto.
