    Cotto's not overrated. His fans are just excitable. Cotto's always been a solid world champ who is competitive (most of the time) even in loss. However he's not atg type which stays at the top in long winning streaks. He loses and comes back, loses and comes back. There's nothing wrong with that, he's legit and will have a world title again before long. Bad style match up for him this time around, that's about it. But he wasn't hurt physically, just a scraping of his pride, and can bounce back.

    I don't see why you would say that, his resume clearly indicates otherwise. That said, he was always going to be toi small for tall, skilled LMWs so no surprise here. He is a bit of a **** loser though, the OP is not too wrong in that.

    Overprotected? Overrated? Lost all credibility there. If Cotto is protected and overrated then Canelo must be a fearless warrior who fights everyone and is already cracking the top ten P4P.

    Yes he has.

    He's a c/b- level fighter who had hbo money behind him and was made out to be an elite.

    His career is a fabrication and thank god people are starting to realise this.

    History will not be kind to cotto

    Did he blame the Ref like Chavez Sr? Did he blame the doctor and a NYC conspiracy like Margarito?

    Cotto needs to roid up like JMM for some past prime glory.

    Hi hater.

    ? It was Trout who hit Cotto low 2x last night. Why did Cotto not hit Trout low in that "tough" fight?

    Stop being reverend Al for a minute and recognize that one, Judah did NOT have Cotto in REAL trouble... and TWO, that Cotto did not hit Manny, Margarito, nor Torres low and they ALL had Cotto in REAL trouble.

    You are ***** and should have your cable box snatched and thrown the **** out your mother's living room.

    Nah, that one doesn't make him overrated. You're just bitter in your heart, that's just it

    At 154 Cotto might be small and overrated... For those of you that need to hate, or those of you that just started watching boxing and have NO clue about Cotto prior to 2009, you can talk all that nonsense about Cotto being "overrated.." Even Mosley doesn't believe you.

    Mosley was 167 years old when Cotto got a robbery win over him
