Too early to write off Cotto?

Hes got 2 strikes, 1 more and hes out.

 

Way too early.. i still favor him to beat some of the title holder at 147. I could see him beating berto and even mosley. I still want to see him fight margarito again and mayweather.

 

He'll be back.

 

Hes fought most of the best @ 147. They all were good fights. Just cause he lost to 2 top fighters doesnt mean anything.

Cotto will continue to bring great fights to the public!

 

:good

 

You people forget that Cotto is more than a fighter, he's a human being. The way he's been getting pummelled as of late shows that he can't defend himself in the ring, he needs to quit before he's seriously hurt in the ring. A fighter just died the other day. Even you look at the NFL they are trying to better deal with players getting concussions.

 

I don't think he'll be back. Sure, he'll fight again, but he's not going to the top. He seemed way to comfortable with losing. Once a boxer learns how to lose, it becomes easier and easier to lose. Somewhere in the middle of the fight. Cotto became a beaten man, and more importantly, he began to fight like one.

 

Also, go watch the post fight interview with Larry Merchant, Cotto sounded as if his speech was slurred.

 

It's not only losing , but how you lose. Cotto took a couple of prolonged beatings in losing, and endured punishment even while winning. Down against Torres, wobbled against DeCorley, rocked and sliced against Judah, and almost bled out against Clottey.
Cotto's shelf life might be close to expiring.

 

His Done in my view , as stated his taken 2 massive beating's in his losses

 

Early enough if his tightwad ass refuses to pay for a real Trainer an Elite to improve and add layers to his game. Then he will always be susceptible to someone who can take a punch and in return drill his ass as has already been demonstrated.

 

I dont think people trully realise what Cotto has been through in the last four or so years. Almost every fight bar Gomez + Jennings he has been hurt, rocked in case case stopped and in the other despite the handwrap issue he submitted.

Cotto is a very old 28/29 I dont expect him to get back into elite status, I know that 2 years ago Cotto was the king of 147, but do you honestly expect the Cotto we have seen since that fight to beat Mosley again if they fought in 6 months? Clottey?

Cotto will carry on now doubt as he will continue to fill MSG, I just dont see him ever being elite again

 

:rofl

*******s are amazing. atsch

 

He will be back. But he needs to improve his defense big time!
Wen you fight the likes of Margo and Pac who are nonstop punching machines, it's disastrous.

He needs a new trainer who will keep him out of these wars, and give him
the edge Cotto desperately needs.
