Cotto VS Mayweather...more competitve than Pac VS Mayweather

Lol thats cool man. He is definitely one of the greats..my point was more the disrespect to Cotto. I don't think he's at all far behind Tito in skills and accomplishments. Both fighters only lost to the best..well Marg sucks but he cheated so we can strike that off . I think Puerto Ricans can be just as proud of Cotto

I think you're absolutely correct. People here have been slower to warm to Cotto than they did to Tito, but that was probably due as much to their demeanors as to anything they did in the ring. Tito was always smiling... always shaking hands and signing autographs. He loved the limelight and reveled in it. Cotto can sometimes seem more aloof, and some people unjustly hold that against him. Not me, though. You gotta look at the positives in people. For instance, I'm very proud that Cotto has made such a huge effort to learn English, so he can speak to the media himself, rather than through an interpreter. Huge kudos for that. Also, his composure, especially against someone who he literally hates, like Margarito...... is something to be proud of also. I doubt I would be as classy or reserved. So yeah.... good points you've made.
