Bob Arum:"a guy takes beatings and he’s never the same"

Nvm

 

IMO Arum is using Cotto as a 'name' to get Foreman over and make him a bigger star, mostly in the Jewish market so he can market him to the Jewish people & bring in whole different demographic of fans. Arum makes fights for two reasons, to make someone look good & to make money. This will more than likely do both. As much as I like Cotto, I think it's a bad style matchup for him & Foreman will look pretty good in winning

 

I really cant wait till Saturday to see how Cotto looks. I hope he's still got something left.

 

NOT FUNNY AT ALL. He put his life on the line for 4 more rounds compared to that quitter named OSCAR. Yet Oscar receives countless acolades for having a fine career.

 

Arum's like Emperor Palpatine. Always looking for a new apprentice to get rid of his 2nd in command.

he did the same thing with Erik Morales once Manny entered the picture. He'll do the same when Pac leaves the big picture.

Funny how people still hate the f*cker for speaking his own mind.

#1) He's there to sell a fight

#2) It got you thinking if you should buy a cotto fight to see if his theory is wrong

shrewd business man.

 

The accumulation of blows like he took against Margo and Pac is more damaging than the one punch KO Pac landed on Hatton. If given a choice, I would personally take the one and done over the alternative.

 

:good

 

i really do think people put way too much on it..Cotto has taken some heavy shots but to say he's washed up? thats a bit far

 

the fights free B

 

Typical hater comment about Oscar.

What does the last fight of Oscar's career have to do with Oscar receiving countless accolades for having a fine entire career?

 

That was actually after the 5th round, not the 7th

Pac put a vicious beating on Cotto

 

oh boy I don't know about that

Hatton looked pretty ****ing dead and did you see his face?

So? Cotto always swells, cuts and gets scuffed up. Some guys do - Its not like every fighter has the same skin thickness or bone structure, so it doesn't matter. Guys like Arturo Gatti have literally had swollen areas after the very first punch.

 

The thing is I was watching some Cotto tapes from before Margarito, and I don't think he beats Foreman regardless.

Also, if you compare Cotto's performance against Mosley to his performance against Clottey, the Margarito beating didn't take anything out of him. It's the same Cotto, except that he's cut.
