Cotto = Quitter

Anyone that says Cotto quit is a complete dickhead and a waster of fresh oxegen, best part of them rolled down their mothers leg basically

:good

 

Nothing to do with whiskers, he wasnt knocked senseless he was beaten up and exaushted over a number of rounds.

Thats why he took a knee, there was nothing wrong with his chin atsch and he didnt quit he just had nothing left.:hat

 

Indeed. These people don't seem to get the SIGNS of a weak chin when they're staring them in the face. Rocked by light-hitting Corley who he outweighed by 17 pounds!! Nearly taken out by the mediocre Torres!! Jeez, it was right there for all to see.

The verdict is in. Cotto's chin is SHAKY, people!!! :nod

 

Calling him a quitter is just very stupid.

 

i bet you would the same but worse and cry your way to the nearest hospital cause you be thinkinking your life is coming to an end. Oh yeah Cotto = Quitter but YOU=A ***** who never stepped in the ring great fighter such as cotto or margarito I wouldn't doubt it if you never stepped in the ring at all!

 

Cotto showed alot of heart in the last 2 rounds because he took a beating but let's tell it as it is guy's and that is at the end Cotto quit because he couldent take anymore , and by not giving a post fight interview just show's his not a good loser !

Cotto - Margo 2 - Anyone ?

 

I'll be honest...I was and am a HUGE Cotto fan.

However, he did quit. He was beaten physically and emotionally, but he elected to take a knee twice (more specifically the second time when he did so out of pure fear), and decided to take no more punishment.

DO I BLAME COTTO FOR TAKING A KNEE? ABSOLUTELY NOT.

However, would Corrales have ever done it? No.

Now, I don't want everyone going nuts on me, but Cotto wasn't knocked out where he couldn't make a ten count. He was beaten up, and took a knee. That's quitting, or more technically "retiring". The ref didn't say he couldn't continue, it was obvious that Cotto no longer wanted to fight.

He's still a warrior and a great fighter, BUT Margarito beat him into submission and made him quit...plain and simple...

 

This was an amazing fight and props to Margarito even though I truly beleived Cotto would win. I just feel that Cotto should have stayed off the ropes. His dancing and back peddling was actually winning many rounds. It was the RJJ against the ropes part that did him in. Of course Margarito's pressure just did him in. The stupid HBO commentators did not acknoledge that Cotto could have had his nose broken due to having his mouth wide open. I don't think he could breath right. Great fight for Margarito to attack the body and this is why Cotto's hands were down and he was taking unnescessary punishment. Oh, he did get hit while he was down, but should have covered up so that he would not take a unnescessary punch. Great fight and thanks for the streamline for the fight. WOW!!!

 

See post number 42, and the reasoning as to why it should be considered "quitting"

 

yes cotto quit but he quit like a man. He took a serious beating until he saw there was no hope and he decided it was not his day, just like arguello or morales, they were smart enough to know when they were beaten and that is when a fight should end.

 

Well I don't think he quit... Margo just wore him completely down by the end of that fight. Don't think Cotto could have continued if he wanted to.

 

Cotto to go back down to 140.
May be him and Hatton to do it.
Doesnt want no part of Margo.

 

how is his chin shaky even stevie wonder could see that his chin isn't shaky with all those accumalation of punches he absorbed he showed tremendous heart as long as it lasted. i would likr to see you in the ring just to see how long you would last

 

Quitter? Pffft. No. He fought very well, but man did he take some punishment. He was getting busted up bad from those uppercuts, and I thought during the second round that the result was inevitable (unless he somehow managed to crawl to the final bell). You could just see what was going to happen, and most fighters would've succumb to the pressure long before Cotto did.
