Cotto has accomplished whats tooken Hatton and many other fighters to do in just 20 something fights.
Whilie it's taken Hatton and others almost 40 fights to accomplish what hes done.....

Last I remember Lacy was not NEAR the P4P list, so I'm not sure where you got that from.

Hattons looked out of it in his last 2 fights, against people who he was suposse to blow out of the water. Instead he won a very shady fight against Collazo who many people feel it was a draw or a win for Collazo.

He then fights Urango with just 17 fights, you read that 17. And struggles with him, at times he looked good then he looked out of it.

Lacys best opponents were Pember & Reid. People thought (Including me) that Lacys sheer power would be too much for Joe.
And power alone.....

Thats not the case with Cotto, the kids improved and continues to do so day in and day out. Cotto just doesn't have power he moves well in the ring, hes a great body puncher. You see what I'm saying. Lacy was going in against Joe with power and power only.
Cottos coming into this fight with more then just his power. Thats the difference.

Cotto overhyped? Nah!! been saying 4, 5 fights ago that he would be at the top of the div. What I didn't say was that he would be doing it in the Welter div. hes fighting well and the right type of opposition for someone hitting the 30 mark.

You say Cottos has taken on anyone with serious ability as I said hes fighting top contenders and his fighting the same fighters that the rest of the top fighters are fighting.....


Cotto & PBF have fought similar opponents check the results of the fights. and tell me Cotto isn't fighting anyone with serious ability as you say.



Thanks for the good laugh hackey
