Hey, dumbass...you're misquoting me because you didn't pay attention to anything I said....next time pay attention:
I SAID cotto has fought hard throughout his career ....but that's like praising an employee for working hard. He's a fighter and he's SUPPOSED to give it his all...it's what's expected. you don't get extra points for doing what you get paid to do.
I SAID in an earlier post that cotto hasn't ducked anybody...he even gave canelo a shot at the me title and fought margarito in a rematch....but you also don't get credit for LOSING...and cotto lost to practically EVERY top guy he faced....even the ones the judges gifted him with wins over, like ssm and clottey...in fact, cotto should have been DQ'd against zab Judah....he should have at LEAST 8 losses on his record...and if he had been forced to fight the likes of corey spinks, ricky hatton and Vernon forrest, he'd have even more losses.
No doubt cotto is a "BELOVED" fighter...and I SAID that too...read my fuckin post, you dumbass. My only question is "why?"...why is cotto more popular than, say Vince Philips or Cornelius bundrage? Those guys gave 110% in every fight too...just like cotto. As I said, it's really because cotto's a P.R. fighter and P.R. has a huge fanbase, so there always needs to be a P.R. fighter in the mix going back to tito, macho Camacho, Wilfredo Gomez, Wilfred benitez, etc...it brings money to the sport. that's what the marketing hype behind cotto is all about.
