    The same reason people love Khan and Mayweather, he's humble.

    Other than that, I definitely don't hate any boxer. I don't see how a fan of the sport can hate a boxer.

    Cotto is cool though. I think most people like his fights. I am a lecturer and sometimes when I have my laptop at school, some students always want to see The Cotto Margo highlight. The one by GP(Yeah I keep all those on my laptop for when I don't have internet access)

    There is a point where Cotto is slipping all of Margo's punches while against the ropes. I think that scene has created at least one or two boxing fans from some of my students.
