What does Felix Trinidad think of Cotto?

He thinks Cotto should retire...Funny thing is I though he should have retired after the Oscar fight

 

Not that positive, Cotto was asked if he was going to be the next Trinidad for PR and Cotto said "Im Miguel Cotto", sort of like an insult to Tito because we all know hes PR's all-time most popular fighter.

 

They were said not to get on with each other, but they posed for a picture together with Yuri Foreman last night and I think Tito had some good words for Cotto before the Pacquiao fight so it's got to be bull****.

 

I don't think there's anything wrong with saying that nor necessarily an intended insult. Could have even meant it as a compliment. Like 'Hey, I'm not saying I'm going to be that great.' Or more likely, he could have just meant he's himself like he said and with nothing to read into. Cotto is a pretty straight talker.

 

NAh! they are just not close friends, there is not beef or rivalry. Cotto is Cotto, and Tito is Tito. Thats about it. And there is nothing wrong with that.

 

:good

 

Well Tito had never said that Cotto should retire and want he thinks of Cotto is what almost everybody here in Puerto Rico think of him he is a good boxer but a bigger *******.......

 

How is Cotto an *******? Are their actual reasons, if so name them

 

Maybe you just talk out of your ass?

Puerto Rican icon Felix Trinidad has advised his countryman, Miguel Cotto, to retire after two or three more fights. Trinidad watched Cotto take a bad beating at the hands of Manny Pacquiao last Saturday at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. He says Cotto has a few more fights in the tank but not many.
The Puerto Rican former champion Felix "Tito" Trinidad said that Miguel Cotto should not retire after losing last night against Filipino Manny Pacquiao.
"Cotto has only two losses and I think he can still have a few more fights. My advice to him is to do two or three more fights and retire, because economically he has to be taken care of," Trinidad told El Nuevo Dia.
Trinidad and his father/trainer, Felix Trinidad Sr, were sure Cotto would beat Pacquiao but they were wrong. Trinidad saw Cotto's stamina crash after a bad beating.
"I always knew it would be a tough fight. Both me and my father believed that Cotto could dominate Pacquiao because he has very good technique. But what happened is that Pacquiao throws hard punches and he is very fast. And Cotto's stamina began to drop because the punches were doing a lot of damage."

By the scene of boxing

 

You know I've heard so many people say that. A lot of people have said he's nowhere near as popular over there as you would think. Can any PRs confirm this? If it's true, why?

I've always thought he's a good guy, very quiet, not an interviewers dream or anything but a good guy.

 

Maybe not positive but its not negative. If anything, its Cotto's way of saying, "Hey, don't compare me to Trinidad, I'm Miguel Cotto. Accept me for who I am".

 

Yeah, I was wondering this same thing because it seems Trinidad and JuanMa get along famously, and Trinidad always has great things to say about him, and "passing the torch" and so on and so forth, but I never really saw that kind of interaction between Trinidad and Cotto. You'd have thought that Trinidad would have passed the torch to Cotto, and Cotto would pass the torch to JuanMa. Instead, it seems almost as though Cotto is left off the "local legend" landscape altogether. I wonder why, since he seems like such a nice guy and he's got a great resume and fan-friendly style.

 

JuanMa and Trinidad they seem to have personalities on the same page. JuanMa even sounds to have a similar accent as Tito. They mash well. Cotto is completely different.
