I honestly think Cotto gets criticised a lot more than many of these fighters, Cotto is shot and overrated, that's just wild
Yup, this. He also has the most enemies from all racial groups including when they gang up on him i.e. when a black person criticizes him, a mexican automatically joins in and supports the criticism, when a mexican starts it, a black jumps right in and joins the bashing, if a brit starts it, a mexican, a black, and other races jump in, etc.
I know right, it's always he's shot or he's overrated, or he's slow, he has no chin, no right hand, no foot work, cuts easily, no power, no heart, ducking Martinez. He is by far the most hated.
floyd which alot of it is done by people who generally dont have any idea about boxing so its not just wrong its idiotic a good example is the story that may ducked kostya... the only person you can accuse mayweather or even half ducking is margarito (who was caught cheating and we all know if he got a chance at the p4p number one fighter he would have used the wraps) and perhaps pacquiao but i place most of the blame on arum and arum only
I'd say Wladamir and Khan. it's not wlad's fault the heavyweight division is full of fat *******s these days. to keep yourself in shape, top condition, and not lower yourself to being a lesser fighter simply because the opposition permits it, deserves credit to the individual. it's the mark of a champion when the fight is already won before the first punch is ever thrown. Conversely, Khan has risen up to the level of opposition. He's taken on tough fights and unlike many false champions of before, went into hostile territory to defend his title, fight the best in their prime, and fight a variety of fighters with a variety of different skill sets, instead of fighters with a style he could easily exploit. After suffering a vicious knock out, he didn't run from power punches, he fought more and got better. In these times, a fighter who will take risks is a fighter to be praised, when so many are cowards only looking for low-risk, high-reward fights.
they meant "unjustly" criticized. when your claim to fame is two 40+ year old middleweights, that speaks for itself.
