But his in and out game has improved, he's shortened up and he's really become a complete fighter. Again would have to look at the tapes but Cotto isn't just a fun guy to watch anymore, he's a legit contender.


agreed............... i saw cotto for the 1st time waaaay back (i think shobox, but i could be wrong) and thought with the right training and management, he could be a future star. now a couple years later, cotto has lived up to my personal expectations (good puerto rican fighter, but NEVER gonna be on the same page as trinidad like many have been labeling him) but i just think that paul is gonna be a megastar within a couple years (first at 154, then maybe 160) and has all the tools to live up to my expectations

and youre absolutely right............ no way does arum put cotto in the ring with williams, he'll just wait for the inevitable jump in weight class by williams instead
