Recent pics of Miguel Cotto?

Some boxing journalist (I think it was Steve Kim) tweeted the other day that the WBA light middleweight champ was looking fat in a photo posted on Fightnews, and called him "Miguel Bloato".

This is the most recently posted pic of him in the FN archives.

He doesn't look all that out of shape for being in-between camps.

AFAIK, he doesn't have anything scheduled right now so looking as he does here (apparently from mid-October) is perfectly acceptable.

Does anybody know what his training schedule is like during his downtime, or about what his walking around weight is usually (or now)?

 

To be fair to Steve, it was on Twitter and not in any published article. It's still a bit unprofessional - and, if that above is indeed what he was mentioning, inaccurate.

 

Again, he doesn't look miserably overweight. This is hardly Ricky Hatton territory.

Also - Cotto KO1 Torres under any rules. :yep

Cotto barely put anything on that first left hand and beat out MAT (who clearly gave it his all). That 2nd one where he slipped while throwing doesn't count.

 

Of course he favors the left...have you ever seen Cotto?

His right hand isn't stuffed with down or anything, but it's nowhere near the weapon his left is.

 

Here it is:

 

The difference is Torres really loaded up and stepped hard into his. Cotto just kind of balled up a fist and took a chop at the bag.
