    Yet, Cotto wouldn't dare step his punk ass in the ring with Paul.


    But that isn't the issue. Cotto is overrated as ****. Who has he ever really beaten and dominated without some sort of controversy or being given the benefit of the doubt.


    I get it. He's likeable. So ****ing what? Doesn't mean he's the king of the ring and ****.

    Man please.


    He was offered several times. His only respnse was always some bull**** about talking to Bob Arum.


    Margarito? Now that's a real fighter. Bob Arum said no, and he said "**** that! I'm gonna fight him anyway."


    And yet some of these same Cotto fans like to bring up Floyd's name and how he ducked Paul.

    yeah he was scared of the guy that was outboxed by Quintana of all people.

    Cotto is a solid fighter with a good resume nobody thinks hes an ATG or the best in the world .

    If you want to talk about overrated fighters look no further than P.Willy the most overrated fighter in the last twenty years.

    Who can forget all the bull**** "most feared fighter in boxing " that surrounded Williams like flies to ****.

    Do you have a source to that? I googled and couldn't find any fight offers.

    Yes, he was scared of a guy who outboxed the same guy who bludgeoned him half to death in the ring, Margarito.


    But again, this has nothing to do with Paul. I never thought Cotto was all that, and just because he has legions of fans telling me different, doesn't mean I will change my mind.

    I'm not asking anyone to change their mind about Cotto. I'm just stating the obvious to anyone who is actually paying attention. He is a solid fighter, yes. But he is overrated.

    You also won't find any evidence that Arum called Goosen and told him not to contact him anymore about a second Margarito fight. Margo anted to fight Shane instead. Oops!

    I'm lying because it's something you don't want to believe? :lol:


    I'm not trying to convince you of anything. I don't care about anyone believing me.

    I actually want to believe it, but since you have no evidence to back up your claim, I have to pass it off as merely messageboard opinion.

    Relax *****....No one is over rating Cotto...They're just giving him his due. Had they been smaller gloves, Floyd would have been feeling a lot more of the punches from Miguel and we can't start with the "what ifs".

    Floyd won...he had a tough fight...it was a very competitive fight....leave it at that. Floyd doesn't really get knock out all that often anymore...we can say ortiz but almost anyone can clip someone off a cheap shot.
