    Cotto went down a lot.. especially at JWW.. but he got back up and normally owned (went down to Torres, Pacman, Margarito) plus he's always in a war

    Trinidad, Corrales, Vargas, Marquez, Mayorga, to name some...

    Indeed, 6 times in 27 fights... that's a 22.2% downrate.
    He's probably British :yep

    Steve Cunningham been down 5 times in his last 5 fights (3 times against Adamek). Still very good and slick boxer though.

    I wouldn't class him as 'slick' (As such) but you're correct on every other point.

    FRAUDLEY is always the first guy who comes to mind when talking about fighters who kiss the canvas hard!

    Enzo MacCarinelli is guilty of not only kissing, but fornicating shamelessly with the canvas.

    Exactly what does that 18.6% actually address? If he had been down in 11 different fights, it might be valid, or if he had only fought 59 rounds, you could stretch the stats to get your outcome. but that 18.6% you quoted is absolutely useless and invalid. It's equivalent to saying since he throws 200 punches a fight (trandom number), he throws punches at a whopping 20,000% rate!

    Maybe compare the number of rounds boxed and how many rounds he's been down, or compare how many times he's been down compared to his opponents...but dont do horrible statistical anylysis to illustrate your hatred for the man. I doubt he would say anything about the way you go about doing YOUR job.
