Pavlik will come back better, he's younger and was beaten by a better fighter than Cotto was, Margo is a good fighter but he's not an ATG and on the same level as Hopkins.. Cotto, was stopped and quit in a lot of peoples eye's Pavlik lost a decision:deal geez which is worse??:nut Cotto's face was busted up and he was beaten to a pulp, this is a pretty choice here, **** get a clue:huh
Let's see how Cotto looks in February. IMO I think he'll be fine. Fighters take L's, it's just apart of the game. He got beat up in the end, but put up a hell of a fight tand was landing shots that would've floored other Welters. He got taken to the limit, but didnt get KTFO ala Roy Jones (who seems to be doing fine at 39 yrs old).
I say Pavlik. Like has been said before, Cotto was beaten up pretty good by a guy thats in his division. So he isn't seen as the man at WW anymore. Pavlik moved up 10 pounds to fight a top 5 fighter at LHW. He has never been beaten by another MW. It's not really a fair comparison.
i think cotto has the best chance of comin back better than ever however even if he got anther chance at margo i reckon that margo wud beat him all over again.
Cotto, he is a top quality fighter. Pavlik is a good fighter, but he had been overated by the US media. If anuy fighter will come back in and win the big fights i say it is Cotto
If the rumor someone posted a few days ago about Cotto is true... I don't see him making a convincing comeback. I sure hope it was just a rumor though. Pavlik definitely can come back strong at 160, 147 is a much more competitive division anyway.
Something about Cotto having drinking problems lately. I can't remember which poster mentioned it, I'm sure he was hispanic though.
The people saying Cotto, im not sure why your saying that.... This isnt, whos the better fighter, this is... who has the better chance at returning to form. Hopkins vs Pavlik was a complete schooling.... no doubt, Pavlik was straight up embarresed But make no mistake.... Cotto took a faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar worse beating, and recieved a much more damaging loss, both mentally AND physically. Pavlik can go back down to 160 and i bet you he will continue being pavlik... and winning This isnt about whos the better fighter, or even who has a brighter future after these losses... but who will return to form better, and though im hoping its Cotto, its hardly the easy answer i think some are implying, because i really dont think this loss should effect kelly at all... he simply got outboxed and schooled up.... Cotto got BEAT DOWN. Im hoping its cotto... but im not so sure.
