"Right now Manny is the guy to beat right now. I just don't see Cotto messing with Manny's speed and intelligence. Cotto is a one dimensional fighter and we seen him quit against Margarito. Margarito beat him because he wouldn't let Cotto breath. Manny is smaller than he is, but he won't have problems at 145lbs. I definitely see Pacquiao winning. I am not sure if it will be a knockout, but it should be a decisive win. Cotto already quit once, so he's liable to quit again. When you say “No Mas” once, I have seen it many times before where they will quit again. Cotto is a fighter that has quit, so he may do it again. People remember that, the same thing for Roberto Duran, that's how people remember him, the “No Mas” fight, and that's horrible".
Pfft, Cotto has/had so many dimensions. He could fight orthodox and southpaw, be the agressor or counter puncher, punch to the body and head. Do your homework Vargas ya *****.
I am one of Vargas's biggest fans.... no joke. But Cotto is about as far away from one dimensional as you can get. Can Fight going forwards Fight going backwards Can be the slugger Can be the boxer Uses just about every punch in the book effectively Great timing Can fight southpaw Can fight orthodox Outside a few exceptions, you give me a fighter and cotto can beat him however you want him to beat him..... by outboxing him, or breaking him down. Cotto at his best is a good mix of all these things.
on what planet would you call a guy with so much depth to his game 1-dimensional? is it even in this solar system? shut the hell up Vargas.....
STFU, Fernanda. Dude obviously misses the boxing spotlight. How did that clothing line go? Promotional company? Film acting? Yeah...he knows he's a nobody outside the ring, and he's been a nobody in it since Mosley I. He needs to just sit tight and accept that his attention whoring ass won't be acknowledged until he squeezes it into a booth opposite Camacho Jr. in their pre-weigh-in pie eating contest.
and not to pick at vargas's picks, because we all pick fights wrong at one time or another, and i cant say i didnt think some of these fighters would win, but Vargas also picked Judah over Cotto, and i can only imagine he thought Mosley would beat Cotto as well. He said also that Winky had no chance against Trinidad (again, its forgivable because not many thought winky would dominate like he did) but im just saying
I respect Vargas but he's wrong. I think this may be a personal feeling he has about Cotto for whatever reason....but I don't believe he really feels Cotto is ONE D. Cotto is very good all around and not great at anything aside from his left hook to the body. But he's a very, very good champion at 147.
