    Cotto had the balls to fight Pac, something Void will never have.

    Just look at what most of his opponents did after losing to him, that should explain it right there.

    Torres - Became champion
    Quintana(a lot called a can when Cotto fought him) - Went on to become champion and hand P.Williams his first loss
    Mosley - Crushed Concreto and became the top man at welterweight
    Malignaggi - Became champion

    haha yea but i remember when cotto was hated on alot. he used to be hated on all the time on these threads. people thought he would lose to pinto, quintana, malignaggi, clottey haha it wasnt until recently when people started looking at his resume and what hes done that the love has been coming out haha

    Cotto's resume is very solid. Just a very few start their career vs. positive record fighters, Vitali only fought two with a losing record, De La Hoya, Gamboa fought none.

    its not just cotto

    all prospects top rank get from the beginning, they match them up with good fighters gradually making the competition harder and harder

    just look at floyd and oscar.

    I even see people saying He was going to loose against Gomez because Gomez was bigger, they put their feet on their mouth.

    exactly what ive been saying all along about de la hoya. He also has lost most of his big fights. I also had him losing to Sturm and Quartey even with the 12th round knockdown.
