    The same reason people love Khan and Mayweather, he's humble.

    Other than that, I definitely don't hate any boxer. I don't see how a fan of the sport can hate a boxer.

    Cotto is cool though. I think most people like his fights. I am a lecturer and sometimes when I have my laptop at school, some students always want to see The Cotto Margo highlight. The one by GP(Yeah I keep all those on my laptop for when I don't have internet access)

    There is a point where Cotto is slipping all of Margo's punches while against the ropes. I think that scene has created at least one or two boxing fans from some of my students.

    :lol: You might want to take another look at his fight with Clottey to see what kind of heart this guy really has...

    The question is why do you find him not hard to hate? :huh
    Are you a boxing fan or a boxer fan?
