    Have you seen cotto spar? Rarely is that ever the case. They could have gotten someone much better to emulate trout. Some fighters just train there skills in general because its better to just be plain better than someone. An untested fighter sparring against a tested one. Its gonna show the difference. Half the people hear already said when they heard GGG was his sparring partner was gonna get ktfo. It didn't happe. It was just two guys boxing to improve skills but they would still try to get the better of eachother

    Most of the time.

    But sometimes sparring sessions can be very telling.

    Regardless of what happens in sparring, in a fight GGG would eventually get to Cotto. He's too big and too strong.

    GGG isn't hard to find, but Cotto isn't a huge puncher, and GGG appears to have a good jaw and he delivers measured pressure.

    He also has great timing, a good body attack, puts his punches together, and when he hits his opponents, the lights get dimmer.

    The guy is still a monster, but that doesn't mean he's unbeatable by any stretch.

    Ramos was ranked in the top 5 at SBW after the Shimoda win. This is a fact. Just because he fought like a deer in the headlights doesn't mean it isn't a good win. Hell, we can say Nishioka is a bum because he did pretty much the same thing as Ramos did. (And yes, I know Nishioka has more than one good, ranked win. Just saying, it's somewhat similar, if we're going by performances :hat)

    Sparring partners aren't usually trying to KTFO who they are working for. Ok for comparing pure boxing skills, but there is a lot more to a fight when the other guy is trying to hurt you.

    unproven is canelo alvarez, a guy that is being called out by both vanes and lara.

    proven is a guy that has over 200 amatuer fights, olympic experience and is being avoided by pirog, quillen and n'jikam; all three who were offered fights against ggg and declined.

    fights arent always won inside the ring. they are won by reading between the lines.

    When GGG sparred Canelo all the glovtards were saying how great he was for getting the better of Canelo, now he spars Cotto and gets his ass whooped and all the excuses come out from the glovtards. I thought GGG was the sparring champion of the world LOL, Pound for pound best at sparring LOL

    Believe me, I'm a reliable source. My uncle's friend's friend who lives close to the gym saw Cotto kissing some dude ... Just about as believable

    Do you guys remember that fake Facebook page where Bradley was saying he was going to give his belt back to Pacquiao. All the *******s were praising God? This sounds as ******ed as that.

    A very reliable source coming from a puerto rican cotto fanboy? LOL. Cotto is a tiny little man, 1 flush shot from GGG would spark him cold. Everyone is just looking for an excuse to **** on GGG.
