    It's official.

    His stupid fans are now claiming he would beat Pac, for **** sakes, Pac ALMOST KILLED HIM

    Cotto is a c+ fighter, slightly above journeyman, he can beat hand-picked tailor made faded old names, but he is NOT elite.

    Cotto is worse than somebody like Brian Vera. You're 100% right.

    Cotto is almost at Lacy levels.

    Lacy was considered "very good" when he was a joke

    Cotto is considered a H2H P4P ATG type by his fans when the reality is he's "decent"

    I dont think he beats Pac but your just pissed he beat Margo after you said Margo would destroy him the same like in the first fight.

    Yeah, Cotto's a good fighter. Far from great, but overall, he's pretty solid. Does some things pretty damn well and has good fundamentals. He'll be remembered for fighting the best his era had to offer and giving the fans some great fights.

    He's not B+ imo he's got holes all over his game, he's been blue-printed and hes probably slightly over the hill

    Aruturo Gatti was a C+ fighter not Miguel Cotto. Cotto is more like A- fighter. Cotto is a 3 division champion and future hall of famer.

    Alright then lets get this straight.

    "3 division champion" means absoloutley **** all he cherry picked his 154 lb title against a one legged joke fighter and has defended it against nothing but ruined fighters

    "A- fighter" HOW are you going to say that, he fights trash!!!

    Alfonso gomez, whatsisname foreman, old ruined mayorga, one eyed marg, clottey (who he lost too), humiliated by pac, michael ****ing jennings.

    theres some recent form right there, oh yeah thats awesome

    Cotto is not overrated, he has an excellent resume.

    Losing to an ATG like Manny Pacquiao is no disgrace.
