    yea i see what ur saying

    hes soooo classy. remember the judah fight when they take a point from him and he bows to each judge while the point is being taken away. he is a CLASSSSSY fighter like ive never seen. A Joe Louis attitude of sorts.

    Yep, Maussa was just an easy belt.

    Maussa is a bum who got lucky against Harris. Ramshall is right, Arum pampered him too long(expecially after the Corely fight). I mean the guy has still not beat a guy who was a title holder at the time he fought him. It kills me how guys hype up guys like Maussa, and Torres like their something special, just to make Cotto's resume look better. For years I've been waiting for this guy to fight a worthy challenger. Judah was pretty worthy(although he was coming off a year layoff), and Shane is worthy so maybe it looks like Arum is finally taking off the diapers.

    Reg I agree with wat u said, but how is Judah worthy for Cotto, but he was a bum 4 Floyd?

    You're asking the wrong person. I thought Judah would beat Floyd.

    Im not even going to lie same here. I did think that Judah was goin to beat Floyd. Zab gotthe tools to do it. I actually rooted 4 Zab 2 win, being he is a New Yorker like me. But PBF did wat he had 2 do to pull out the W.
    I dont kno man, its just funny how people will say Zab was a bum, and thaty when Floyd beat him he was a bum. But when Cotto beat hima after a year layoff, it was a good win for him

    There is no reason to dislike Miguel Cotto

    After seeing him walk through fire against Judah in order to land his shots, I have become very interested in seeing him fight Floyd, as I don't think he will become discouraged as some might when Floyd outslicks them. He is going to keep coming with a ferocious body assault. I look forward to that fight as much as any that could be made.

    Hes a great guy. Real class and a real hunger to win. Hes really humble and I respect the way hes learnt English really quickly so he can interview in English. I admire the way he doesnt get into **** talking and would rather just batter people into submission. You never really hear much about his private life either, which I really admire in that it shows hes a true professional. All around a great guy and a great fighter.

    ur standards are so damn high. you automatically write the guy off? you say his competition has been weak? yet every fighter he fights whether its judah, malignaggi, quintana, you still write him off to lose until he wins, then you make up reasons why he won.

    wtf are you talkin about, I never down played Cotto's win. All I did was point out the double standard **** when it comes to Floyd. I say it was a good win for both fighters. Im just sayin how is Zab a bum when he fought Floyd, but when he fights Cotto its a good win for him. Thats all im sayin
