the stoppage was a result of the cumulative damage. cotto was taking a beatdown the whole fight. the stoppage is definitely debatable,but you cant blame the ref for stopping it. the fight was already ova. woulda been a 12 round decision or a knockout.

Manny couldn't barely land shyt in the rounds prior when Cotto did decide to get on his bicycle nobody trying to hear that shyt, if Cotto was that hurt he wouldn't have been boxing and moving that effectively, no jelly legs or nothing. Cumulative my ass..... in the 12th round, after he withstood all of that, to rob him with like a min left, was this really a mercy stoppage after the so called cumulative damage or was the fix in to inflate Manny's resume with a ko, a fight where Cotto was only awarded 2 rounds when he arguably won between 4-5 rounds, a fight where HBO(Now TR business partners) was trying to influence a stoppage beforehand to soften up the blow to the public for when it did happen, because Cotto was running and refused to brawl, while smartly not taken any further damage and boxing effectively

He fought Mayweather instead of Pac and said "I refuse to go lower than 150"

He then fought Trout instead of Pac now saying "I refuse to go lower than 154"

He wasn't going to fight pacq.

And anyway why would he fight Cotto after Floyd anyway. That shyt would have been stupid. On top of that why ask for a catch weight.

from the home of coca-cola, i'm not referring to s
why would there be a rematch for a one sided beatdown at another catchweight:leostare:


your making yourself sound more stupid since cotto wasnt even a welterweight

i already. aid he fought bradley instead, who is a welterweight
den marquez jumped up to welterweight (at no catchweight) and knocked him the fukk out:myman:

he was supposed to set up something with rios next

arum was tryin to cash cotto out and pacquaio was just wanted a easy fight.
thats nothin new tho


Bradley was a nobody WW with ZERO following..... there was no rios set up at the time dude... he just fought JMM... Floyd was still screaming May 5th May 5th but was unwilling to do any type of negotiating with Top Rank.. Manny was stuck with no options...

I believe Cotto was full of shyt and could still make 147 just didn't want no parts of Pac period..

They both were coming off losses... and the fight still woulda did good numbers... AND FOR THE LAST TIME.... COTTO SAID HE WOULDN'T GO BELOW 150... SO PAC ASKED HIM TO FIGHT AT 150...Whats so hard to understand.about that?? :what:

If Cotto wanted it he could have negotiateds, Manny was using his upper hand in that situation


I like Cotto too, but truth is he ducked a Manny rematch to fight Trout, as little sense as it makes it's true, not only that he used the catchweight as a excuse, but Cotto had no problems with cw when it came to Margartio. All critcsim just glosses over Cotto though, the sore losing, ducking, running away from Berto, constant scapegoating and all

Anyway I'm interested in seeing how he does in his next match, knowing that he' seeking a new trainer. Trout wasn't better than Cotto, Cotto just thought he was Canelo Alverez and tried to brawl with the bigger fighter that was content with boxing, like he still doesnt have lww power.

So instead Of fighting somebody who you thought got a gift against you you fight a nikka you beat already in a rematch.

:laugh: homie I'm done talking about it be a useful its old news.

the cotto under Diaz with no catchweight against paq would be interesting..

Cotto is looking for a new trainer according to boxing scene , despite him bringing his all vs the top dog Mayweather where he did shyt but occasionally land a jab and push May and hold, Cotto regressed immensely under Diaz, a good trainer wouldn't even had let him think of fighting trout, Stewart wouldn't of had him trying to slug it out with a fighter who looks like he belonged at smw
