Just found out that Urango beat Cotto twice as an amateur

[Kel]

I have only seen Cotto fight his last 5 fights and I find him impressive. Everyone says this Urango is shite so even as an amateur how could he beat Cotto twice?

Coz cotto wasnt a great am. I dont know his record but i think he had quite a few losses in not too many fights.

Iv'e already assumed that with a neck that thick, he's pretty durable... Maybe it was on work rate alone.

Nether one of em have good point scoreres.

i mentioned this in another post but i didnt know urango beat cotto TWICE. like i said urango can't be as shite as everyone makes out if he's beaten cotto as an amateur and is an undefeated champion.
but i've also mentioned before that muhamed abduliev beat cotto as an amateur aswell (in the olympics) and did you see what cotto did to him when they met as pro's?

"hurricane" pete mcneeley beat young tyson as an amature, but we saw what happened when they fought in the pros (dont forget that was tysons first fight out of prison)

Trust me...Urango's trash.

I was really hyped on him until after seeing him for the 5th time. He's good against chumps but not against someone who can box.

As far as what happened to Cotto as an amatuer...it's a waste of time making comparisons because he's blown out quite a few of his fellow am competitors.

Kelson Pinto got his ass blasted out when they faced...just like Abdullaev.

Good thing he aint fighting cotto then

Good thing he aint fighting cotto then

If youv'e ever seen Urango...he leaves himself wide open after throwing off his power shots. In quick comparsion...he pulls a Kessler & drops his hands to marvel at his work.

Cotto'd kill him.

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Young Mutley does that... So did the G-Man.... Why?

As did Henry Tillman twice

[Purist]

All true.

But Urango's not fighting a "boxer" in Ricky Hatton is he?

didnt know that mate thanks for the info

[El Gamo]

Yep,my point EXACTLY,CC. People are saing Hatton should KO him etc etc Urango is a bum but that;s against BOXER/MOVERS. Is Hatton a mover? Hell no! Ergo,he'll play to Urango's possibly few strenghts allowing him to land the bombs etc. Hatton should win but if Urango has some power,he'll land on Hatton. People keep forgetting that.....

As for Urango beating Cotto twice,first I have heard of it but Cotto was also beaten by Torres,Abdullaev and Pinto twice if I remember correctly so I would not read too much into that.
