his 7th title will always have an asterisk** if he fights for a belt at 145. Shame on his fans for wanting trinkets instead of fair fights.
Cotto needs to come to his senses and realize that with his title on the line it only adds to the promotion for the fight. Casuals fans would have added context and thus naturally there would be added interest. Besides if Cotto loses how could he still take pride in wearing that belt? The title would be absolutely worthless; or I'd should say even more worthless than it already is.
I cant help it. I just cant get over all the people thinking that a non-title fight is a good thing just because they are so upset that their boy Oscar got the **** kicked out of him. Lets ignore the fact that welterweight isn't nor has it ever been a catchweight.
Great Post. People just need to stop bitching. 1 ****in pound from his Clottey weigh in and its a non title fight? No excuses in this one
Your mistaken. The hardcore fans, the ones who know better, realize when a fight credible or not regardless of a title being on the line. The common fan wants to know "who's champion" may not even realize that there are 2 other "champions" in the division right now.
Really does Suger Ray Lenard have an * next his WBC light heavyweight title. I dont ****ing think so. And trinkets. No if you put an * next to it then its a ****ing trinket. Then its the equivalent of WBA "Champion in recess" bull****.
They care about the integrity of the sport. Thats why they dont watch it any more. And for a champion to get the **** kicked out of him and keep his belt dont help.
you're right. I'm going to not watch this fight because no belt is on the line. :nutAnd nobody knows or cares what belt Cotto has at his moment.
Interviewer: Mr. Casual Boxing Fan do you know what a catch weight is? Mr. Casual Boxing Fan: Isn't that the weight between pin and fly. Interviewer: Do you know what a non-title fight is? Mr. Casual Boxing Fan: ****ing Don King bull****.
AS in my eallier post . . . I don't care if there's no title in the line . . . if they want to just fight . . . then fight. But in the end of the day . . . if Cotto loses to the smaller Pac who is coming in from the lower weight class . . . that belt and title will have no meaning anymore. It's more shame than pride for Cotto to have it when infact he was already beaten by smaller fighter. . . . and another thing there is . . . Pacquiao will be denied of the official claim for yet again another divisional title.
