why is it that cotto is a fight fans dream? bloody, hard hitting, savage with tricks up his sleeve to make his opponent bleed and bruise and brutalness in his heart so that we can watch his opponent slowly be torn apart and his life slowly fade away. anyway, i used to think jermaine fought anyone with no complaints but after he made the comment about IF THE MONEY IS RIGHT blah blah blah i realized that Cotto is the last of a dying breed. he has never said a word about who he is fighting, he truly leaves it up to his managers who have done a helluva job. he deserved ALOT of credit. hes fighting the winner of Margo/Williams which is no joke and if he wins that then most likely will fight Mosley with no problem. hes just vicious.
He's good for the sport. He's brutal, causes damage and always tries to make a good fight. He also seems like a good guy in general.
well we know hes fighting the winner of margo/williams. i dont know about mosley but i know he wont take a backwards step.
Cotto takes tons of high risk, low reward fights. He went through a string of previously undefeated fighters for not a whole lot of cash. That's called fighting anyone. Like the OP said, he throws down with anyone they set in front of him. Who's he ever ducked?
Because he believes he can beat anyone he faces. It doesn't matter who it is, if his managers and promoter put them in the ring, Cotto will fight them.
I don't buy into that... a lot of fighters will fight whoever.. until they get a name and have the opportunity to choose. Wait a few years still before saying he fights anyone. And being undefeated does not mean being a threat, it means you never lost, nothing more, nothing less.
I don't see how anyone in their right mind can complain about the level of competition that Cotto has faced. Look at his age, look at the amount of fights. If anything, I'd complain that they brought him along too quickly, but he's answered every challenge.
