he wants his rematch against paquiao and margarito and wants chavez jr he says if margarito is the fight for him after manny vs marg then he will beat him,same with paquiao and chavez jr,seems like his confidence is back up there, "we all have bad nights but if the 2nd fight becomes a reality it will be very very different. gotta love dis dude wants to retire with a bang fearless.
Cotto is undeniably the baddest mofo in boxing. Source? I really hope he can go out after a spectacular win. Him and Steward seem great together.
I want him to beat Marg and Chavez Jr.... he deserves those fights and victories to cap off his career. great warrior and person
Good to hear he has confidence... (Any of those fight's will be tuff for him, Yes including Chavez Jr.)
Youre out of your mind is you think Jr has a chance against Cotto. He gets tagged too damn much by journeymen, Hes tough and all but Cotto can stop him. Hed kill that body.
I have a feeling that when Margarito beats Manny we will see this fight Manny vs Cotto at 154 catchweight winner to face Margarito
Cotto is the type of fighter who I've always believed was always on the highest level, but mentally he was lacking the confidence. He's had a rough patch in his life with the Margarito controversy and losing his father, that's enough to take down any man. I'll always respect this man and route for him no matter who he fights he needs to remove the thought of being "damaged goods" and more like "reconstructed" better than before. If he indeed did say this this is what I've been waiting to hear. He needs to work on his speed and defense badly and eat, sleep, and train every second of his life on how he is going to beat Pacman. He basically needs the hunger and knows he has to fight like the best in order to beat the best. He also needs the best sparring partners available because that is something I have always been questioning about him.
I somewhat agree, But you are talking about a fighter on the heavy decline that we all remember with those skills @ 140/147lbs. in 2011 @ 154lbs, different story. But I wish dude the best, he always put's on a show. I seem to recall Cotto also has the tendency to take shot's from "Journeyman".
I can imagine Cotto beating sh*t out of Margarito like Mosely did. This time there'll be no plaster involved. As for Pac, I'd rather Cotto just stayed away... Pac is an animal in the ring.
Pac vs Cotto 2 what a disgrace Pacquiao would knock him out cold the second time, Cotto got jello legs against Foreman for **** sakes. Who the hell has JCC JR faced to deserve such a shot, he's a ****ing WBC silver champion, give me break fight a real 154lber. Are Top Rank fighters just going to rematch each other until someone dies or they turn 40yrs old? Dude should be fighting Cintron, Angulo, Berto, and if he wants to rematch someone it should be Shane Mosley, **** bob arum.
War Cotto indeed! Sad to say Cotto-Pac 2, is a possibility. Cotto would do better, but still wouldn't win. Arum is ready to feed Cotto to Pacman. Cotto v Jr. should be next, i think Cotto would KO him. I'm all for Cotto-Margarito 2 - I know Cotto would beat. Couple more big money fight then retirement.
ill take him over Jnr and Margo but he gets his face rearranged again against Pac - hes just too fast for cotto and he cant handle the accumulation of shots. Id like to see him in against Mayweather just for the payday and the interest of how theyd handle each others styles (even though floyd wins this) or Angulo who i think cotto takes
