    He didn't speak bad about Cotto but does he seriously think Puerto Rico is in South America.
    I see it doesn't take much to be a writer you don't even need to go to school.
    Doesn't he see the thousands of Puerto Rican flags every time Cotto fights.
    Hey Dominic P.R.is an island in the Caribbean.

    Miguel Cotto, a tough, hardened and proven South American fighter. He’s fought the likes of Zab Judah, Shane Mosley and Antonio Margarito, blowing each of them away with his powerful punches and quick hand speed. Many people have come to the presumption that Mayweather will beat Cotto very comfortably, however I don’t see it being an easy night for the pretty boy.

    ...I have more of an exception with saying Miguel has good handspeed...

    :lol::patsch

    Well he looked quick and sharp even against Mosley's own hand-speed, and put his punches together very quickly & fluidly against Margarito. He's not one of the fastest around, but he's not slow.

    Yup, Cotto's handspeed is good. In some fights, he's looked pretty damn quick of hand.

    Cotto has slow feet, not slow hands.

    He's got "decent" handspeed, not "quick" handspeed IMO. I'm not saying "slow" but certainly not "quick".

    Maybe Relentless was right when he said Floyd would beat Cotto(e) all the way back to Colombia.
