Be careful for what you wish for.
If your posts are not serious and are just to stir shit around I wouldn't be saying that proudly.
Check your PM's please.
Thanks,

I think I speak for the Cotto fans when I say bring on some more areas that you feel Cotto lacks in.
Cause guess what? So that next time around when he shuts people up AGAIN both you and I will be surprised together. :D
It's one thing to take note of a fighters weaknesses but when a fighter goes out and proves that he can minimize those weaknesses and convert into an all around fighter. What else do you want?
He KO's people, the opponent was overrated.
He outboxe's people, Cotto lost because he ran. That's not the Cotto that we've seen he's scared now.
Make up your mind. It's alright not to be fan. I ain't no PBF but I sure as hell know hes the best boxer of his/this generation.
I appreciate what your saying, but all fighters get helaciously scrutinized. Cotto, Hatton, Mayweather, Margarito etc.
When you love your fighter you love your fighter, when you hate a fighter you hate is azzz and look for anything.
Cotto showed a better defense and sick counterpunching, Shane wasnt gonna come in and leave unless he got one on the way in or the way out. Also Cotto showed smarts by backing off in the mid 9th when he realized he wasnt gonna take Shanes will or heart. He wasnt gonna take anymore punishment to deliver his own. He was ahead and boxed on his backfoot effectively. It was far from a prime super fast Mosely but a 1/2 of Shane Mosely is better than 98% out there. Cotto done very well and should be heavily favored in anyfight except maybe Mayweather. :appl: Miguel Cotto
Respect JT... you know the score.

I always, ALWAYS have a reservation or two about a fighter. I always wondered if Cotto would ever show the coolness he showed in his earlier days and more to the point it looked like to me that Cotto would be a badly worn horse within the next couple of years.... Simply because i believed that as he fought a higher caliber of opponent, he'd only wind up taking more punishment.
I really thought he'd wind up a Gatti type. It could still happen but i doubt it will be any time soon.
CC back Boogie....

I give Cotto major major props, defo top 10 p4p was impressed with his chin, speed style heart everything. Still not a fan though. I'll prolly always want him to losse i think (unless he fights williams, i fking hate him now)
I do have massive respect for cotto and i really hope i can become a fan of his and praise the shit out of him, but i just can't take to him atm and but i don't know why lol
Cheers! Rob I know exactly what your saying. ;)

Re: If your not a Cotto fan by now, chances are you'll never be.
I dont know if I can be a Cotto fan he looks like a homicidal maniac. Just look at his eyes after the Torres knockdown, He had that look like he wanted to pull a shank out a just stick Torres right there in the ring.

Lol, he is a scary dude. Shark eyes in that face.
Re: If your not a Cotto fan by now, chances are you'll never be.
I'm going to be honest with everyone and say that I thought Cotto looked a great deal meaner when he had hair up there. I never understood the big change and look forward to his growing it back.
Hopefully I'm not the only one who feels strongly about this.

You being serious?! I think he looks meaner AND better with no hair there. Although I did like the locks v Ndou,were like the ones I had. ;D
Re: If your not a Cotto fan by now, chances are you'll never be.
Cotto won fair and square 115-113, the way two judges saw the fight. However I was surprised that even with his best shots he never once staggered or hurt Mosley the entire fight. I was impressed by his jab, but I just feel that the top guys at welter...ie Hatton, Mayweather, and possibly Margarito could beat him due to his bad chin and slowness of foot. I definitely like his style, but I feel he will have trouble when he steps in against another top tier guy in his prime. Let's not forget that was Mosley at 36 and after having been in countless battles, if he the Mosley of old, Cotto gets destroyed. Lot's of heart and pressure can win a lot of fights though, and Cotto's got plenty of that

I can't believe we are talking about Cotto's hair ???

I'm serious about the hair. Anyone can talk jabs and left hooks to the body. I think he looked better with it than he does without it.
Why the change? I'm curious to know.

Having braids and fighting is a distraction.Having too much hair is a distractions too,hence ALOT of fighters have/shaven heads.
