Miguel Cotto, what if....

[brocktonblockbust]

Danny G: wrong wrong wrong, I dont even remember that Malignaggi fight, it was one I missed and havent had a chance to see on youtube. How can I be a fan of a guy I never saw? YOure assumption was dead wrong.

Seems by your oddly hostile response that YOUR BOY must be Cotto.

Grow up.

Now to the other 2 civil and decent posters who asked me about the hype, yes---Cotto has been exaggeratedly hyped by HBO marketeers since Day One. You know what I mean? Like David Reid and Sam Peter and others, who were overhyped from the start. Non-stop comments of grandeur and stellar status about a young fighter who hadn't done too much yet, those first few years, when Lamply and the rest just non-stop praised and touted this guy--that IS the definition of too much HYPE, isn't it?

[No Contest]

Funny shit, the facial expressions were good.

Cotto too hyped? Maybe you don't like the attention he gets because you don't like him. But when someone says too hyped that means they don't deserve the hype. Cotto deserves every bit of hype he gets if not more. He beat a lot of the tough good fighters who the average fan doesn't know instead of holding out for business names and bigger money. Like Abdullaev, Torres, Quintana, N'dou, etc. And he has the name fighters under his belt also. You don't have to be a fan of the guy but don't blind yourself to the truth as to make up your own reality. If you don't like him, so be it. Just leave it at that.

That's a damn good post. Too many times I've read how Cotto's list of opponents doesn't measure up somehow, and that is total B.S. in my opinion. Just because the guy isn't a household name, doesn't make him a bum. I've personally been to several of Cotto's fights, and have followed his career since the beginning. And sure, it's easy to say "so-and-so" was a bum after Cotto has beaten him. But in actuality, there's been very few soft opponents on his record. The first "break" I ever saw Cotto take was his fight against Gomez, and even then, there are those who would give Gomez more credit than I do.

So well said, blegit. You took the words right out of my keyboard.

HBO did not hype Cotto up, Miguel made a name for himself. The fact that the announcers were pleased and entertained should not be a surprise with as much boring fighters there are in the sport.

I know what your problem is though, you hate Puerto Ricans.

I am Mexican and it was hard to like Puerto Rican fighters because of the rivalry but it did not take me long to see what a great fighter Miguel is. You don't think Miguel is a decent fighter? I think he is very entertaining for one. You don't have to like him but to say he is nothing more than hype, makes me believe you don't know enough about him and or hate him for some other reason you are not mentioning here.

Cotto lost one fight to a man who is now suspended for being caught trying to cheat by loading his wraps with plaster. Now we don't know wether or not Margarito did or did not use it against Cotto but far too many people believe it is a strong very strong posibility that he did. Margarito hit Cotto once and his face was deformed, Shane Mosley hits much harder than Margarito and Cotto's face was not destroyed. I am just glad Margarito was caught because I would have hated seeing this happen to Shane Mosley at his age if you know what I mean.

Well, Cotto has beaten the shit out of everyone (practically) that has stepped in the ring with him. And Cotto is a fighter who engages in brutality and takes some too. What is not to like or hype about that quality in ANY boxer? And who hyped Sam Peter? The comparison to Cotto is a reach as well as David Reid, who when he fought a real guy in Trinidad, was smoked and never was the same.

So the way Blegit and the other poster deals with my view is to accuse me of racism....hmmmm, are you guys sure you're not working for the ACLU?

Wilfredo Benitez is one of my 3 favorite fighters.....hmmmmm....there goes your Puerto Rican point.

As for Cotto, he has come on quite stronger than I expected. I'm talking about all the hype and hoopla in 2003, 2004, 2005, which I think he didn't deserve.

Blegit, you love accusing people of creating their own reality.....and what do YOU do, sir? Live in OTHER PEOPLES" reality? Or did you create one for yourself?

This is a forum made up of hundreds of posters' view of reality.

Why are you participating if you can't stomach another poster's reality?

Go to the BLEGIT BOXING FORUM where everybody will see things exactly how YOU see it. Then you'll be happy.

And cut the name-calling. YOu should have left that behind after 17 years of professional experience you have.

Brockton, there are very few, BUT IMPORTANT, rules on this board..

Ignore saddoboxer, moono, and hattonthehammer.

and..

If you ever say anything, ANYTHING, negative about Cotto to Danny G, be prepared for an onslaught of a photoshop and movie making arsenal of insults coming in your direction.. He's the forum clown. He'll call you something like BrocktonCOCKbust or some other immature attempt at an insult to your name and then continue living his life as if there is some substance in what he just did.

It's something you get used to, really..

The one that should be ignored is you. I have ignored your monkey arse in the past and I guess it's time to put your punk arse back in the ignore list because I was trying to get Brock to explain his view. Now get your punk arse back on my iggy list!

[Manuel "Chubby" Medina]

Funny stuff man...anyone know who may train Cotto?

Funny stuff man...anyone know who may train Cotto?

Rumor has it that cutman Miguel Diaz might be the one but Diaz says no one has called him from Top Rank and that they are going to have to break him off a bigger piece of the pie if he is called. Both uncle and nephew were in court earlier so a lot of distractions here

NOoooooooo!! not your iggy list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

clown.

[dee_z_r]

it would be shit if we didnt seee him again
shit like audley harrison

[ElTerribleMorales]

....he got knocked the fuck out ?


Oh wait....his punk ass already has

you shouldn't be laughin so much cause at least it was against a fighter who was thought to be game and now under suspicion of using illegal wraps, not brutally against an old fighter who was very much passed it like your man Haye

LOL thats how you wind Danny G up. I knew exactly what the response would be.


I was actually only joking with you Danny...no need to get all sensitive posting clips now...Ive owned you enough times for you to realise you shouldn´t mess with me

you banned yourself cause you couldn't take all the Haye bashing lol so what are you talking about

What if Hatton got knocked the fuck out ?


Oh wait....his punk ass already has

indeed

Danny beat you to it boy, so now run off to the "Pac thongs for sale" thread. They got some new designs in I heard.

and you'd be the first in line to watch David Haye's nude calender shoot, you'd probably volunteer to hold his fire hose if he was doing a firefighter shot

3-0

and i know you're gonna try and blast me with some bullshit diss about Morales, but the only difference is Erik is a legend and Haye is about to get KTFO AGAIN!!! lol
