    A worse destruction than what Pac did to Cotto would be the results.

    This guy is ridiculously skilled & confident. Thats a hard pair to beat.

    When they became Champions for d first time, they r 19 to 21 years old, what happens is that they stay in d program and that is why they win 2 or 3 Olympics and World Championships. But d first one, they just kids.

    dude potter got knocked out cold in the amateurs by emilio correa , and correa is not even close to lara's skill level. i think lara wouldnt ko him though he would just out box the crap out of the shorter man

    if you are landing most of your punches and you are not knocking the majority out, you are not a puncher. Some guys can take punches from big pinchers, but you're telling me almost everyone he faced had a granite chin? b real.

    True, but Stevenson is not the only star. There were hundreds of other Cubans who would have been World pro Champions if given the opportunity...:good

    So, now I am a racist for stating a fact? :-(

    That's like saying that people are racist for stating that Hatton lost to Pacquiao...:huh

    A lost is a lost, it went down in history so deal with it.

    Maybe it hurts to hear that Cotto and Trinidad lost to Cuban legend Mario Kindelán...:yep
