Front foot (most fights)
Great body shots
has lateral movement but can bang too
Has fought bangers(Torres,Pinto)experinced fighters and ex champs(bailey,Corley etc),undefeated prospects and boxers(Malignaggi),Olympians(Abdul) etc etc That's a very very good resujme which just needs the big names and as for not havinbg a good chin:

He was fighting Torres who had a 98% KO ratio and the knockdown was a push,he took the rest of the punches clean which showed he has a great chin +but poor D in that fight)
and Corley,he got caught on the temple,nothing to do with the jaw,and Corley has also shaken Mayweather.

Need I go further bro??

Majety,when Maracho comes on,ask him for the link man!


YOU CAN GO ON FOR HOURS BUT FACT IS he is still overrated!!!!! and why are you making excuses for his poor perfomances??....Where do I ever mention Hatton and compare the two? so why are you sitting there comparing them in defense of Cotto?....Get over it Cotto is an average boxer with Power and THATS IT!!!!!!.....As for Hatton since you seem to have this complex about him when speaking of Cotto....He is nothing more than a punch macHine with no defense and limited speed who was Lucky in his bout with Colozzo. He will get killed the first time a guy with speed that is a hit and run fighter...Hatton also has a limited jaw he has been down against fighters not even in the top 10...Happy I also said what I think of Hatton so you dont have to think I am picking on Cotto....

What top caliber fighter has Cotto fought? What dangerous fighter in his prime. Has he fought and beat?What fighter on the P4P or in the P4P in the P4P has he faced? Wins over Torres, Corley, Magliaggi, N'Dou? Not great prime guys...Magliaggi hasnt reached his prime...Fight Hatton,,,Mayweather when they were both 140..Hatton is coming back to 140...Hell Gatti at 140,,,Margarito at 147,,,Mosley,,,Baldomir,,
I don't even need him to win to make me a believer just a good showing...I say he beats Gatti but he will have to fight hard against a guy who has been in with the best...ANYTHING...his resume is not great...the top guys he beat were top notch befor Cotto
