I’m not bitter with Lester.. I even encouraged him to write more..just read my previous posts..but he has to be man enough to accept what he’s wrong with his predictions and give credit to whom it is due..I’m just pissed when he calls Cotto a shot and a hand-fed fighter..Do you think Cotto is a shot fighter as you’ve said? I’ll say it again, give Pac the credit he deserved. Do you think Ledwaba, Barerra, Solis, Morales, Marquez, Diaz, Hatton, Dela Hoya, Cotto are hand-fed fighters? I don’t think so..

Please read this excerp from the Ring Mag:

“And it’s ridiculous to say Cotto was a diminished fighter by the time Pacquiao fought him. Watch their fight again (I did when HBO replayed it Saturday night). Cotto looked like Cotto for the first few rounds. He was as sharp as ever in Round 1 and perfectly competitive until the end of the fourth. He looked like a prime Cotto until Pacquiao’s punches started adding up and made him look like a spent force. When a fighter begins a fight looking like he’s in his prime and ends it looking shot, the credit has to go to the guy he was in the ring with.”

A true boxing fan will and must learn to appreciate what a boxer does in the ring (win or lose) instead of crying foul after so-so fighter defeating so-so fighter..

Credit goes to Cotto for being a good sport, accepting defeat gracefully and not whining..Credit goes to Pac for being successful while moving up in weight..

You pac fans are sensitive like anyone who goes against your fighte4r becomes a bad guy?

Lester is not one of Philboxing writers. But I just happen to open the link posted by Philboxing which leads to this site. He predicted Pacman coudn’t handle Cotto’s jab, Cotto’s too big, Cotto’s OK, etc..He even predicted Pacman to be KO’ed.

Maybe Philboxing admin won’t post another article again coming from Lester knowing the backlash he would receive from Pacfans.

FYI.

Lester be man enough to accept that you’re wrong with your prediction, same as with other scribes predicting Cotto to win. Don’t make another insensitive article which will further hurt your writing/blogging career..

Lester writes for philboxing?

why did they remove his article?

I know its hard to swallow any pill of defeat..Just keep on writing man..But please be objective..or maybe try to compare your articles to big name sports analysts and commentators (Iole, Rafael, etc..)..and seek their comments on the following: 1. Cotto as past his prime? 2. Cotto a wash up fighter? 3. Cotto was handpicked? 4. Cotto was rushed? 5. Cotto was weight drained? 6. Cotto is not tough? etc…

Please try to disect the all news and events before the fight and you will see the confidence of Cotto’s camp , etc about Cotto defeating the Pacman.

It would be better to give credit to where it is due than to sour-grape.

You know what, I really searched the web just to look for any new article coming from you. Your link wasn’t posted anymore at Philboxing.com. I wonder why..

And one more thing, why write an article 2 weeks after the fight when in fact you are screaming for a Pacman loss a day before the fight? Can’t compose a sensible article after eating your own words? This article is already long overdue..
