Bojado... Im Pissed

Hard to believe that Bojado and Cotto used to be constantly mentioned as future opponents with the winner still in doubt then!

 

a lot of people thought that him and cotto would come up and become superstars at teh same time. they were suppose to be the next chavez/camacho except cotto is chavez and bojado being camacho.

bojado beat cotto once as amateurs, but i believe cotto bested him twice. so they had a little rivalry going. it's too bad for bojado though. he looked like he had some great tools, but lacked the mental fortitude, much like judah, but worse.

 

First billion dollar fighter my arse.

 

I run into his brother from time to time here at amatuer shows. He always says his brother is training and going to fight again, and he never does.

In the year 2000, I was telling every person that I knew about this guy, he has me looking foolish now.

 

Words can't describe how wrong I was about Panchito Bojado. I expected him to have the best career of the 2000 class...better than Cotto's too. Most disappointing prospect since Mark Breland, although Breland was more hyped up (as a combination of Hearns and Leonard) and ended up having a very respectable professional career.

 

Did you see his last fight? If so how was his performance?

 

What about the fight with Rubio?

 

i read in some cotto interview where he said him and bojado were real cool with each other and even traveled together when they competed in the same amateur tournaments.

 

I suppose the good thing is the last 2 fights he lost wasnt by much. So there may be a bit of fight left in him yet.
