    Don't know why. Angulo doesn't belong on the same card as Cotto let alone the same ring. If Joel Julio is outboxing you, you aren't gonna go that far.

    Williams, Cintron and Sergio Martinez and if he wants a boxer without power like Foreman for another title shot he can fight Spinks and all those are better fights at 154 for Cotto then Angulo.
    Angulo would be a GREAT opponent.

    It would make for an all action fight.

    And a much better fight than one with Cory Spinks like you are suggesting...

    And yes Joel Julio won a few rounds from Angulo early, hell I was rootin for Julio, but Angulo ended up destroying him in the end.
    "You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

    point is if Julio was able to outbox Angulo as he was doing in a close fight, Cotto would make Angulo look like utter garbage, i don't get why so many are saying that Cotto shouldn't take on Williams, Paul (6'1) doesn't use his height, and was already outboxed by two shorter guys in Martinez (5'10) and Quintana (5'9 ½)

    Cotto is one of my favorite fighters. The guy is as humble as they come and a true gentlemen. Foreman showed a lot of heart fighting on with one good leg. Both guys are class acts.
    i had Cotto ahead 6 to 1 (at most 5 to 2) going into the 7th, and the way he was pacing himself no way he was gonna tire out, IMO the Cotto that fought last night would have taken Pacquiao to the limits, his style and Steward have meshed well and IMO it can only get better
    I thought he looked very decent, but I wouldn't go that far. Manny Pac and Yuri Foreman are two very different beasts. Foreman isn't an elite level fighter like Manny Pacquiao. Manny has proven himself fight in fight out in the past couple of years. He would have busted up Foreman himself easily enough.
    Foreman is no Pacquiao, but the Cotto that fought Pacquiao was controlling the action early on, until he tried to impose himself, so if he would have fought as he did last night and used his natural counter punching ability he would have fared a lot better than he did on the night of the actual fight, a few more fights with Steward in his corner and IMO Cotto's career might be taking a new turn for the better
    Agreed. I want to see them together against two more solid opponents and then see where they are at. He might well improve a lot, I hope so.

    I dunno, Cotto has a greater reach than Foreman who has been at the weight all his career...

    there was probably an error on that bro because as far ar I can remember both Cotto and PAC have 67" reach , there is no way somebody at 5'11 have shorter reach. PBF at 5'8 have a 72"reach.

    have I watched the same fight with you guys? Foreman was dominating Cotto until that accidental slip.

    Too bad for foreman.

    I seriously doubt you were watching the same fight if you thought foreman was winning.

    congrats to this great latino warrior, miguel angel cotto! i thought he was done but he sure as hell proved me wrong. just goes to show how much difference and important a great trainer makes. i think cotto beats pacquiao at 154 because one, he looks very strong at that weight, he's vastly improved and he won't have to fight at a catch weight. but knowing roach and pacquiao, they are going to want an advantage. hope cotto and steward won't fall for this garbage anymore.

    yea cause Foreman was winning rounds by getting badly staggered by double jabs going into the 7th Cotto was ahead by 5 rounds to 1, and even before the 7th round Foreman's workrate was already winding down, but well i'm not surprised one bit that you "saw" it that way
