    Some of the anti Cotto posts on here are disgusting. Cotto continually challenges the very best out there


    Mosley
    Margarito
    Clottey
    Judah
    Jennings


    I'm not a big Cotto fan but i have massive respect for the guy. If more boxers were like him boxing would be a far far far better sport

    You tell em bro, too many people getting their knickers in a twist on this site. I was impressed with Cotto because that cut could have been a fight ender and he fought a smart fight against a dangerous opponent and won it by a comfortable margin in my opinion, Clotteys workrate was simply not high enough and anybody who disagree's needs to watch it again with the sound off

    I concur- although I wouldn't have called Jennings one of the 'very best'. Let's not forget that Clottey was milking every 'foul' last night- Cotto aint ever been a cheating ******* and never will be- the lowblow was an accident as was the 'hit behind the head'. The unsilent minority are usually the haters though- people don't like giving credit for close wins. He never shirks a challenge does Miguel.

    Its totally beyond me how Cotto can be critized for this fight. Its either ignorance or blind hate.

    How did both Jennings & Judah get on that list of the so-called best?:huh

    ***
    Those two names aside - Yes he gets mad respect from me, because he's willing to fight anyone and I do like that. :thumbsup

    If you dont respect Cotto after last night, or after losing to Margo showing the heart he showed or looking at the 140 fights coming from the canvas and winning..then you either have not seen his fights or you are simply a heater...and partial on your boxing opinions....

    cotto put in a hell of a performance last night to win that fight.clottey was good too but lost his chance by going to sleep in round 10 and 11.i have more respect for cotto after pulling out a gutsy victory like that.the people who say they lost respect for him should go watch tennis if they didnt like that fight

    I disagree... Margarito was the true winner last night.
    & if you want to see an impressive resume check Margarito's opponent's.

    Daniel Santos
    Kermit Cintron
    Sergio Martinez
    Joshua Clottey
    Paul Williams
    Miguel Cotto
    Shane Mosley
    ect...
