How many think cotto will resort to his "secret" punch after watching cotto vs corley again whenever he is stunned he aims for the gonads. Is thiss what they teach in puerto rico. tito was notorious for this and now cotto is coming along in an even worse way.
Already had this thread. it's not a question of if, it's a question of how many? my man cotto KO in 10 http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=27145
It seems that referees at Madison Square Garden are oftentimes intimidated by the wild pro-Cotto crowd and become reluctant to deduct enough points for obvious low blows. There's no question that Cotto will resort to low blows Saturday if he finds himself in trouble. He doesn't apologize for these fouls. In this article he almost admits that he does it on purpose. http://www.nypost.com/seven/11072007/sports/mosleys_dad_jabs_at_cotto_510543.htm Cotto: "This is a fight, this is professional fighting," he said. "You do what you have to do to win, and so things that happen in the ring are going to happen. Whatever it takes to get a win, I'll do."
Cotto is still learning english, he still does not position his words correctly....but I'm not surprised you posted this, fans are sometimes like the media and use any tangible evidence to slander the reputation of a fighter. I've met Cotto before and know people he has sparred with, he's one of the most stand up men you could ever meet.
If Cotto does do it, some people might say since him Trinidad low blowed, Ricans are dirty fighters, sad but true. Its important Cotto doesnt fall into a pattern like Tito did with Campas, Reid, and Vargas.
shane should retaliate against him..I think if cotto gets caught and is buzzed he will go low for sure shane can't let him get away with it
sure he is just ask, zab corley, torres and the many others he has low-balled to gain an advantage. ask yourself how come floyd, roy, and sweet pea never low-balled to gain an advantage
good point, the cotto huggers want to excuse this extremely despicable tactic as acceptable. :nono there is no way any elite fighter would resort to such a move. I mean look at zab, tito and cotto as they are losing they resort to this tactic. they are all belwo true elite fighters who fight fair:rofl
Anyone else does it, and it's dirty. Cotto and Trinidad do it and their will to win is commended. It's a despicable tactic as you said but unfortonately it's tolerated more than it should be.
