    Then Margo had him cowering down in the corner on one knee.

    He beat Mosley in a close points decision and had to low blow Judah twice to throw him off his game, funny that these are his two best wins yet you don't give Mayweather credit for beating either, Luke.

    He's no HOF fighter and certainly not an ATG, he's just someone that had a decent career and picked up a few paper titles along the way.

    You are talking way too much truth right now.

    They love to debate, but when you start to actually reference the fights? They don't want to hear it. They like to keep the discussion on hearsay and (Uncle Bob's) opinion.

    I think Cotto definitely improved, but only slightly. A few more fights with Steward and a rematch can be talked about. I think Roach is being a little condescending in basically dismissing Cotto's improvements in footwork, balance, and sharpness in his jab and combinations. He even hurt Foreman with a few right hands as well, not something we'd usually seen of him in recent years. He isn't transformed but he can only get better under Steward. Right now Pacquiao takes it again, but if Pac sticks around after the Mayweather fight happens (which it probably will) then I'd like to see it happen after Cotto re-establishes himself.

    If he's no better then lets start making fights with no special demands and restrictions held from the public and kept private:lol:

    Out of those three Cotto is the only one who fights with no special demands or behind close doors Floyds hand drugs and Manny's secrets for not wanting to take random drug testings:lol:

    that shouldnt be any shocking revelation to any of you. roach stating the obvious, so they need not to fight cotto again.
