Well then...if thats the case,I dont agree with them

The extra weight is not going to help cotto,I think its gonna hurt him

Look for Foreman to have a very easy night come june

In response to the 3 boldened sentences.
1. No. i'm not. I know that santos wasn't 100% in there, but cotto
is no PBF in the speed dept, so he will be the much slower man.
2. I can use santos as a barometer. Yes, santos isn't in cotto's class, but
he is much stronger and a better puncher. Cotto is known for using
strength and power as an advanatge in this fight.
3. Um........foreman, with the Kd's counting as extra points shut out santos. Don't think you watched the fight. You must've been talking
with your friends and drinking on the undercards of the pac/cotto
fight.

Foreman's feet alone will keep him away from cotto's plodding attack.
If they meet i promise foreman wins a comfy UD.

Ok, well obviously we are both fairly entrenched in our views. Maybe I'm blind to the situation because I'm a big Cotto fan. Let's just both us remember what we wrote here and come fight time one of us will be admitting the other guy knew better.

I'm so tired of hearing about Miguel Cotto this and Miguel Cotto that. He's arguably the most overrated fighter in boxing today. From what I've read on here people are writing off Foremen as if he's some bum. Cotto, his fans and the PRs in attendance are going to be in for the shock of their life. Here's my honest and objective opinion on Cotto.

Yeah he's got, or should I say HAD decent speed, and decent power, but his defense absolutely sucks, and his stamina has turned to utter ****. All he ever does is get punched to smitherines by plodders or smaller guys. His so called power came from past opponents he fought that were too eager to knock him out, therefore, they left themselves open to make a way for him to comeback with a late knockout. It was either that or him infamously going low to the nuts. I guess a win is a win, but Cotto is far from great and has been done since the Mosley fight when Shane had him on the run like a lion chasing down a gazelle in the wild. He was being outboxed by Malignaggi, went life and death with Judah, N'Dou and Torres. Was given gift decisions against Mosley and Clottey.

Sorry, he does'nt impress me at all and he better thank God that Arum and his team kept him away from a sharp shooter like Money at 140 & 147.

People say Jermaine Taylor needs to retire. FFS, he has more left in the tank than Cotto! Cotto quite frankly is a guy who never stepped up to win the big one. Sorry guys, but don't ever expect to see Cotto in Canasta, NY waving to crowd and giving a hall of fame induction speech.

kirk · Feb 24, 2010

one of the worst posts ive seen you make yet..... and it has nothing to do with your opinion on foreman will beat cotto, because i think it will be a very, very difficult fight for cotto, but your post is just littered with nonsense

Kayo-Kid · Feb 24, 2010

I take it Haterade is on special @ ur friendly grocer? Cummon man, how can any1 take ur posts serious when its filled with soooo much hate towards a guy...its nt unbiased at all, rather jus pure out hatred.

thejokerswild · Feb 24, 2010

Lmao at OP.

ripcity · Feb 24, 2010

Cotto is overratted. He was overrated before the Pacquiao fight before the Margrito (who is also overrated) fight.

There is some truth in that a lot of people have overrated Cotto but he is still a very good fighter.

Do I think he is a lock to beat Foreman? No, but I think he should be the favorite.

Cotto is a hard hitter and should hit even harder with the extra weight. Foreman needs to make it a physical fight and try to stretch the fight into the later rounds. I am not sure if Foreman has the juice though to crack Cotto's suspect chin.
