Whats all this rubbish about a suspect chin?

Cotto has never been knocked down!

Mayweather and Hatton have both been knocked down so have a more suspect chin.

If you look at the results you will see every guy Hatton, Mayweather and Cotto has fought. Cotto has always finished the guy off sooner and by a bigger margin.

Cotto also has a better relationship with the judges/referee. Because Puerto Rico is an American state.
He also has an entire country behind him.
Puerto Rico is huge for boxing. names like "Tito" Felix Trinidad,

"Bazooka" Wilfredo Gomez the greatest super bantam weight the worlds ever seen
Carlos Ortiz the greatest light weight the worlds ever seen.
"El Radar" Wilfred Benitez
"Sugar" Carlos De Leon the greatest Cruiser weight the worlds ever seen.

And even names like "Tito" Felix Trinidad. Will echo in history for his famous wins.

For a country of less than 4 million to have 3 of the worlds greatest boxers. Well. It shows it's a country that breeds the best boxers in the world. Second to none!


Cotto has never been knocked down!

He was knocked down against Ricardo Torres, yes ok it may of been more of a push but its still official knockdown.


Mayweather and Hatton have both been knocked down so have a more suspect chin.

I can tell you have never seen Mayweather vs Hernandez, because if you had you would realize. Mayweather hit Hernandez on the top of the head, and he badly hurt his hand, and his left glove touched the canvas, It wasn't from a punch.

"Sugar" Carlos De Leon the greatest Cruiser weight the worlds ever seen.

I think Holyfield would have a say in that.
Is there more than one Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker on this forum?
I swear that there was a guy with a similar name who always got on my nerves but you seem to speak right on the money. Every post you have made in the past 2 or 3 days has been honest, fair and accurate. Maybe it was another guy with a similar name that I bumped heads with sometime ago. You don't sound like him. CC
