    Just a win over another titlist.

    Let's not beat around the bush. Cotto has to thank Hatton. N'dou and Malignaggi are champs because of him and Cotto now has another two champs on his record.

    Ngoudjo also beat Castillo on my card.

    What the point ?

    Ngoudjo can beat Malignaggi... it is just unlikely... but still :deal !

    Statistic-wise, we can now say that more than one fighter became a world beltholder soon after their loss to Cotto.

    Of course, as achilles pointed out, the belt is meaningless. The win itself reaffirms Cotto's ability to be able to catch up to and defeat quick boxers who rely on footwork, the jab, and getting out of the way... even those who can do it at a world-class level.

    it means Cotto got lucky to get to Pauli when he was still too green

    and that Cotto never destroyed Malignaggi like his fans says

    whats that...it sounded like you got Miguel's **** in your mouth

    Malignaggi's win has nothing to reflect on Cotto, fights is all about matchups and syles, so quit trying to take paulie's win as a win for your boy.

    O-man, you get too worked up about our boy when there's nothing to get worked up about. Achilles was saying thank Hatton for Cotto having now beaten another beltholder in Malignaggi because Malignaggi wouldn't have that belt if Hatton hadn't given it up. It's more a commentary on the sad state of boxing now with everyone getting stripped as soon as they unify. Nothing to do with a Hatton-Cotto matchup.

    I didnt think Malignaggi would have much of a career after Cotto. I thought he would be damaged goods. But he proved me wrong. He is fun to watch. And I would want him to fight Cotto again some time in the future.

    You are so stupid. Why are you asking a question that is answered in the post you are quoting :patsch

    Here it is again for you. N'dou and Malignaggi are champs because of Hatton.

    I like Cotto but you are still blind to any sort of logic or truth.

    The FACT remains that Hatton has beaten an all time great, Cotto hasn't.

    You aren't a boxing fan, you are a boxers fan. As long as your pathetic love and hatred for boxers exist then your worth as a fan is zero.

    Why do people claim tszyu is an alltime great ? I'm baffled ... his greatest win was against judah ... which is a great win but its not enough to be considered an all time great....

    wins over mitchell ?

    his beating at hands of hatton ? quitting ?

    getting knocked out by phillips ?

    beating old a$$ chavez ?

    maybe its just me but i feel tszyu is severely overrated !

    IMO Paulie may very well be Cotto's best win on his resume. Paulie is that good.

    I doubt it, Herman got lucky in his last fight and had the home town judges there to bail him out.
