    Cotto is definitely overrated as. JMW. Who'd be beat? Foreman lol? Mayorga?

    But there's always an excuse for Cotto. Weight drained, Stamina, Cut eye, plaster


    Lets call a spade a spade. Cotto is a good fighter. Never was amazing. A solid blue chip boxer who achieved past his talent level

    If Trout becomes the best at 154 lets see if floyd fights him. I doubt it. Cotto fights all the guys Floyd would never fight and has yet to fight and thats a damn fact!

    The only reason Cotto fought Trout was because he lost to Floyd. :roll:

    What's the debate?

    Pac beat Cotto more convincingly even if you combine the beating that Cotto got from Mayweather and Trout.

    And Margarito got to Cotto first before Pac.

    Yes, props to Cotto for fighting a young and relatively unknown champion. Not a lot of established fighters do it (because of the risk, as was proven tonight), but still. Kudos.

    Been saying that for a long time.

    It hurts me that I agree with you.

    Cotto is way overrated. He is a one-handed fighter whose strength is in his lead hand, thus one of the most potent jabs/hook in boxing. Other than that, he really does not have any other arsenal.

    dropped him twice and knocked him out... had him running for dear life after round 4! Pacquiao destroyed Cotto... took his soul!

    Yep and fighting a southpaw extremely limits what he can do with that left hand.

    Youll have a million excuses for Floyd when he doesnt fight Trout OR Canelo. Just like the million excuses for not fighting Margarito or Pacquiao. Dont get it twisted ***** :yep

    Floyd will fight Canelo if he doesn't lose. No doubt about that.
