I do like hardcore fans cause they entertain you with nonesense. It get annoying at times but it doesn't get to me. I like them especially if we in a group watchin a fight especially when their fighter is losing. Good stuff

Originally posted by STREET CLEANER View PostVargas was also fun to watch but he is in the same category with Cotto. Solid fighters with a lot of flaws that prevent them in being the best in their eras. Vargas was too brave for his chin and Cotto too arrogant. Vargas has a close win against a prime Winky ( a very close fight in my eyes) but yet at the end of his career he had too many health problems to progress any futher. I rather pay to see a Vargas or a Cotto fight that a Mayweather cause those guys were fun to watch.

Originally posted by Tha_Greatest View Postif cotto beat kirkland, angulo, bradley and maybe ortiz, lol, would you call him a hall of fame caliber fighter today?????????????? i would no doubt, lol, bradley would be the biggest win overall even though bradley not hall of fame but braley is a undefeated fighter with no losses, lol, that counts for a little something i guess
@ 140 he missed a Hatton fight
@ 147, prime vs Floyd, vs Williams
@ 154, he is too small for that weight and you can see on his fight against Trout that he cant beat a stronger guy because he cant bully him.
So nothing he does, not even beating Pac @ 150 will solidy HoFer credentials. He is making it because he was exciting, he had a big following and he has beaten over 10 champions in a era that he is top 5 in his weight class. And Gatti making it, solidifies more.
And that BS about him fighting for vacant title, acting like he was not able to beat a champion is stupid. Acting like Hatton could beat Cotto or even Baldomir who were the champ, Lineal Champs.
Cotto might be overated by his biggest fans around here, and he is hated here in PR and troll around the internet because of his KNEE condition. But considering his run in this weak era, he did enough to be consider more than average in this era.
