    Mikkel Kessler and Miguel Cotto are indeed the most overrated fighters on ESB.

    Its every champion's curse, they are only as good as their first defeat. After that they are "exposed" or were B level all along. Boxing has some of the worst followers I've ever seen on any sport and its ****ed up considering its the hardest sport to succeed in.

    Shane Mosley hadn't won anything meaningful in about 5 years before the Cotto fight, and had gotten beat by Vernon twice, DLH, and Winly twice.

    Zab Judah has never really done **** but beat Cory Stinks who was also beat by Mayorga.

    Carlos Quintana was a good win..Probably his best win.

    Cotto is a B+ fighter one of the best of his era in his weight division but far from great

    Slugger3000, Margo took those money shots to the face like a porn star...you defend a cheater to the end and completely disgard a decent boxer like , Cotto. Now, i can understand your hate for the fans because some of them get on my nerves as well, but the boxer himself...thats just a lot of hate for all the wrong reasons.

    Cotto fought stupid against Pac. Perfect timing for Bob Arum, an inexperienced pad holder to train him for his biggest fight. Cotto is a skilled fighter. He fought very tough competition his entire career coming up through the ranks.

    Personally I think he would have fought a lot more competitively had he boxed against Pac, and he knows how to do it. The guy has lost twice in a long career and one of the losses is questionable.
    I would like to see him fight Manny again I think hes matured as a fighter and would look to fight a smarter fight, which I believe hes capable of doing and making it far more competitive.
