    Same here. Some excellent fights, but I have lost interest at 154 and up. I am ignoring this final year as it is not meaningful.

    Future hall of famer. Matched pretty tough coming up at 140 but agree with @Master that a fight with Hatton would have been awesome. Continued his success at 147 against some of the best. Took on Margarito when it was the best fight to make in the division. Good luck in retirement Miguel.

    I wouldn't really say in style, on his own terms tho.

    Cotton was very good. I think his only flaw was not being aggressive enough and backpedaling too much.

    Waaaaaaaaaa

    Well anyone who knows me, knows how much I love Cotto. He's been my favorite since early in his career. I'm soooooo sad to see him retire, but I know it's time, and I don't want to see him go out on a bad note. I fell in love with how he just looked like a pitbull wanting to get out of his corner and rip your head off. He would fight anyone, and always gave it his all. His fights were always great to watch, except when he lost to the cheater, That was hard for me to watch, but I was so happy when he got his revenge. He's not Mr. Personality, but I didn't care about that, because he was just all business in the ring, and that is what mattered to me. Plus as a bonus, he's hot . lol

    I got a new dog last Feb, and there was no other name for me to give him but Cotto.

    Oh, and just because he is retiring, doesn't mean I'm going to retire my signature. That's staying, because I know it annoys some of you guys to have to see his junk.

    Vargas really pitching a shut out over 7 with an ugly cut now. Workmanlike show. Side note..something about this Kellerman and Roy chemistry on the mic that makes it a hard listen . Negrete inspired here late in 8th

    WAR Cotto..one last time.

    If Ali was in any deeper over his head he'd need a snorkel and fins. Cotto going out on his terms and you flat out have to respect that. Hope he hammers this nail!
