    anyone who is a fan of cotto because they think he's a humble, quite, and such a nice guy should quit it now.
    the guy is so stingy and bitter that the local press in PR doesn't know how to deal with him anymore.
    sometime ago they asked him why he didn't try to be a more approachable guy, and he said that he couldn't care less about what the fans or the media thought of him.
    he's a crude, honest guy

    I think sometimes he just gets fed up with all the media and fans.

    ricky hatton disrespects every one he fights, cotto is telling the truth and what he means is pac wil not be getting him out of there with the first left hook power shot he throws

    I always thought his head was too big. Being famous can do that to ya.

    Watch the Cotto vs Mosley fight on youtube. Mosley lands bombs for the first 3-4 rounds and Cotto doesn't even blink! It's unreal. This guy can take clean punches and eat'em up.

    A little guy like Manny is not going to be able to knock Cotto out, especially with one punch. The guy has too good of a chin. If anything, this fight goes the distance and Pac gets by via SP.

    He is not the same fighter we once knew. He doesn't go to the body any more like the old cotto use to. He is a defensive fighter now when he was known to bring the pain. I wish that old cotto came back. He was a lot more exciting.

    the thing with the punch pac caught hatton with is that it was a punch that "he never saw coming". IMO hatton can also take punches, it was just that he got caught at the right place and the right time.

    i bet cotto will also get KTFO "if" he gets caught with that. wich IMO is less likely to happen because cotto has better movement.

    GTFO, Hatton was getting hurt even from the punches he did see coming.

    this is old news, to be honest down here in puerto rico everyone knows he is a "come mierda", but if you are a boxing fan you dont give a **** about his attitude. Is also unfair to compare it to Trinidad's a very humble, down to earth guy.

    right.
    once someone here in pr told me he dislike cotto because he was like that, and that boxers should be nice and approachable to the people because they owe what they have to the fans.
    I went berserk on the guy. I mean WTF!!??
