Cotto KO rate 81%. Cintron KO rate 87% . But the level of opposition they have faced is very different. By the way, Margarito's KO rate is 62%
Cintron may hit harder than Cotto. However, what elite fighter has Cintron beat let alone ko? Cotto is on another level.
Tho in no way does it insuate that he is a better fighter (because there is no humanly possible way to back that up), Cintron has more one punch KO power. Too bad Cotto is LEAGUES better in everything else.
Bigger puncher . . . I'm leaning on Cintron but accuracy, consistency and fighting heart beats the biiger puncher.
Cintron hits harder but COtto is more effective with the way he uses his power. If I had to pick who i wanted to cold **** Teddy Atlas though, i would pick Cintron. ON the power scale at WW from 1 -10 i say cintron is a 10and Cotto is a 7.5. Margartio's power is an 8.
Cintron definately punches harder but he does not give himself room to throw punches. He fought a terrible fight against Margarito. That fight tells me that Margarito will not be getting KOd by Cotto. Decision yes maybe but Margarito took huge shots from Cintron and he did not even budge. He actually kept coming forward wanting to trade. Cotto holds nearly every advantage in this fight except stamina and chin. I CANT WAIT!!!
who has Cintron KOed worth mentioning too give him all this praise as a devastating puncher? Cotto can KO everyone Cintron has KOed
Cintron did everything he could to give himself room though. When Margarito throws he collapes at the same time, and throws more once he gets inside. Cintron actually did a decent job of getting off some good power shots. They just didn't do anything to Margarito.
I voted for Cintron because i belive hes a bigger puncher but i think Cotto is a more destructive puncher.
