Miguel Cotto, what if....

[TitoFan]

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.
