    Tito at 147 or 154 beats cotto down in a similiar fashion to his vargas fight except he stops him before the tenth, cotto drops to his knees and quits like he did against margo

    I agree... Tito is just a bigger and better version of Cotto.

    Tito in his prime was the best in the world. Before he ran into hopkins he was being considered at one of the ATG. Tito is too strong for cotto. He would punished him and knock him out.

    You'll get no arguments from me. Cotto couldn't handle Trinidad's firepower.

    Stops Cotto, yes. Best in the world? No. ODLH handled him like a child and got robbed. If he hadn't made the worst strategic decision in boxing history by staying away for three rounds to let the robbery happen we wouldn't have to see posts like this.

    No shame in that. Take a look what he did to Joppy,,Zulu,Luis Gabriel Garcia,Blocker.

    The man was a brutal puncher.
