I'm not so sure about that, and definitely not head-to-head. The Tito who pummeled Joppy would stop any version of Cotto, IMHO.
When did Cotto ever quit? And for that matter, what happened to Tito once he lost? Retired only to come back on a Mayorga win, lose his next fight and retire again. Talk about quitting... Anyway, Tito always picks against Cotto. He was asked recently about this pick by Tito and Cotto said that it doesn't bother him, Tito is always underestimating him and he invited him to come ringside to the Canelo fight so he can see him beat Canelo.
Trinidad and Cotto have little differences because of personality but other than that they are OK, Trinidad had always backed a fighter from Calderon then Juanma and now Verdejo. He never backed Cotto up, maybe because Cotto never wanted the media to call Him the next Tito successor. Juanma was called at one time the next Tito and now Verdejo is called the same. Calderon just happens to be good friend with Tito.
Exactly I'm tired of people calling Cotto a quitter. He was stopped the beat down pushed Him to go on one knee because His legs and body could not take more punishment.
Tito is calling like it is, Canelo will make Coto bend the knee and quit. And LMAO at Tito being jealous of Cotto, only some dumbass who hasnt followed the sport would say something like that,Tito is the most popular kneecan fighter since Gomez and even though hes retired hes still more loved than Cotto(e). And Tito supports other kneecans in his hall of fame speech he mentioned Felix Verdejo more than one time when he didnt had to cause it was his induction into the HOF and it was his moment but he still praised Verdejo and said hes the future .
I've heard Tito doesn't really like Cotto and that neither do a quite a lot of Puerto Ricans, although obviously there are tons of them who do. Apparently Tito is extremely popular with his people and is always warm, affable and receptive whereas Cotto is a bit standoffish and a diva. This is just stuff I've heard from a couple of Puerto Ricans calling into radio shows/podcasts and I wouldn't have a clue if there's any truth to it.
Im loving this . Because it is really fueling cotto's desire to prove him wrong and shut him up. Canelo will be turned into ketchup on november
