Good to see someone knows about Cotto's early carreer.
I agree with you here. Cotto is not the same fighter I once knew. He had a real decent defense early on in his career that sort of reminded me a little of Winky. That is not the same Cotto we see today but I think this issue has to be addressed by Team Cotto. I do not know who to blame but some one is at fault here wether it is Cotto or his trainer.
I have seen Cotto box beautifully and I sometimes would like to see some of that again where he get's on his bike and does the Ali Butterfly. There is a lot more to Cotto's arsenal than we will ever get to see but Cotto has a lot of tricks. Anyone who thinks this is a one trick pony has not seen all the tricks this pony can do. I have. And I am very happy he is now a Welter Weight Champion.
Cotto is DEFINITELY not a 1 trick pony,he can fight forwards,backwards,jab beautfully(should do it more)bodywork,switch hit effectively! At least us Cotto and Hatton guys agree on something!!
