    Very good video. Nice to kind of look back and see how Miguel was built up back in those early days of his career.

    Cotto is my favorite non-Mexican fighter in the last 10 years. Fought everybody, ducked no one, I used to love the way he brutalized his opponents. The way he broke down Judah was amazing one of my favorite fights. I think Margarito is going to KO him though

    they really blew it

    undefeated fighters need to get they **** together and fight other undefeated fighters

    cotto wasted his career on margarito and margarito is a very bad boxer who cotto should have beat but then again cotto was a very bad IQ fighter so they strengths neutralized eachother and the worse man won

    Cotto's life outside of boxing ruined his career. Cocaine addiction, alcoholism his father's death and the fanily turmoil especially with his uncle.

    Well not completely ruined, but kinda negatively influenced. We allknow Cotto could've have been a lot better.

    I'm just still happy, that Cotto is still around, and a legit champion.

    Whatever mistakes he has made in the past, are made, and I look forward to how he finishes his career (hopefully on a strong note), as I always have had a very very high respect for Cotto as a fighter..

    How do you guys look back in hindsight at cotto's career the way he was build up.
    Its crazy how cotto already had 3 kids at age 23 and going to school and boxing pro as well.
