NSide, I'm sure you remember ROCKYMARSHMELLOW & Magnum those 2 used to be the biggest Cotto-Bashers on here back in 2004-05 when they were still around I remember going on for pages defending Cotto on occasion there was 2 or 3 fellow Cotto fans back then who would jump in and also stand up for Cotto. As with PBF, I've realized with Cotto that no matter how well they perform they will always be critizied. Cottos come a long way since when he 1st started and to see him evolve into what he has become today is something special man. I'm not a PBF as he's not my kind of fighter but I gotta respect him as a fighter and his skills. To see Cotto and say he's one dimensional, glass chin, too slow, over hyped, overrated etc. etc. etc. is silly.
What I say is this, it's fine if your not a fan of his but come on to not see what he's accomplished since his career took off is dumb. The kids not the best boxer out there right now that title belongs to PBF today. But one point PBF wasn't the best boxer on the scene it was RJJ but little by little PBF got the opp. to show his skills. Cottos just trying to do the same, hes a fighter he's said it before.

"I don't do much talking, I train and prepare myself and show up on fight night and go to work. That's my job, my job is not to say bad things about my opponents. I have nothing to say to them, I just want to get in the ring and fight" - Cotto
