Evening Kings and Queens, I hope everyone's December is going well. Video is finally done The Tale of Cotto vs Judah , I hope everyone enjoys. Big Thanks to the Patron backers for backing up this project.
These “The Tale of” videos are fantastic work. I always wondered why HBO never really kept up with them but I’m glad to see that you’ve picked up that particular ball and run with it. Incidentally, I’m not entirely sure if the HBO series was “The Tale Of” or “Legendary Nights” off the top of my head. That not withstanding, this series now three episodes deep is most compelling. Great work.
Still wonder what Judah said to Cotto during the hype that made Cotto laugh. First time I've seen Cotto smile at that point of his career, he was such a stoic animal, Miguel Cotto, true legend.
@@helpraznidentitystopanti-a3946 I’m crying 😂 imagine this nigga zab said to you he was gonna kiss your juicy lips before you were scheduled to fight 😂😂😂
@@irvinmorales1409 When that was being aired live it was uncensored, Mi familia was watching and that's what he said. There's prob an uncensored interview somewhere on youtube you can find.
Your documentary skills are unparalleled. I can imagine these stories being an hour long with interviews and comments from people who were there and being wildly successful on another platform too. Much respect brother OfficeHancho!
Great emotional video I grew up watching these fight as a Puerto Rican loving cotto but also being a Judah fan this fight was a bitter sweet win for me!!!
Has a Puerto Rican i must say you are correct.....o mean....look at Cotto when he turns hes eye sight and then shot a perfect lowblow left hook, i mean, Trinidad did the same shit every time he found out the oponent was quick on hes feet? EVEN THO Larry merchant points out at the moment of the foul "But Cotto dosen't have a history of doing that" because Jim mention the Vargas/Trinidad fight AND i don't call it the ball breaker its more like the speed neutralizer. By way...sorry for my horrible english, is not my main language/tonge.
Lmfao everyone in this planet knows the real Puerto Rican special is getting your shit knocked into oblivion in that boxing ring, men and women from every country have experienced it, some of them world title holders.
I still remember watching this fight live. One of the first fights I watched with my entire family and family friends. It was amazing how Cotto and boxing could bring people together. Cotto is a Puerto Rican legend.
@@eljoelo2459 that shit was blatant as fuck I don’t think I’ve ever hit someone that low aiming for the belly button region is a lot higher then where Cotto hit him it was on purpose.
If you're going to do another Cotto video, I think you should do the tale of Cotto vs. Margarito both 1 and 2, since it's a whole story and you can't talk about one without talking about the other. PS. You've been doing a great job with all of the videos, thanks for your hard work!!
Great video OfficeHancho. Though not the best fight to remember due to the amount of heated fouls, it was exciting at the time it happened from two underrated fighters in Cotto and Judah.
I work call center so i get to watch a bit of youtube in between and your channel man has made my crappy job worth it thank you for your content all the best for the year bro!
Miguel Cotto has always been my favorite fighter. Not the greatest fighter but definitely my favorite. I'm American Puerto Rican and for that boxing has always been our sport along with Mexicans. Cotto is the only 4 weight devision champ for Puerto Rico. He fought all the big names and fought. No bitch in his blood. He MADE his money! Nothing but respect for the dude.
I mean we got some of the best. Vargas, Gomez, Trinidad, Martinez, to name a few but none have done it like Cotto. His best business move was when he got Roach at the end. Bring in a big name trainer, at the time the biggest big name trainer, umpf, you got a boxing monster
Please do a take of Mickey Ward vs Emmanuel Burton/Augusta. Such a great fight and such a major clash of styles that often gets forgotten. Probably the best fight of the “Friday night Fights” series
Zab when he was coming up had the most natural talent ive ever seen in boxing, but he was a 4 round fighter and didn't have the mentality. When zab was 15 they had to fly in sweat P for sparring because nobody could give zab work
@J. Moore He prolly had better hand speed...that's about it. He wasn't big enough to be a premiere welterweight. And occasionally looked like a limited rounds fighter whereas Mayweather always looked as fresh in the 12th as he did in the 1st. Judah wasn't the strategist nor complete boxer Floyd was. He was a nasty fighter which was probably one of his best, though questionable, assets. Mosley would have dropped him.
@J. Moore I agree with what you are saying. If you look at their natural ability. Zab was probably more gifted. Power Zab, Speed, Zab, youth the same age. What Floyd has that separates the two. His mindset was on a much higher level. In the ring Floyd is always disciplined while Zab would lose focus. Also Floyd's defense and stamina seal the deal. Those two have a lot in common. But Floyd had the stronger mindset in boxing.
@J. Moore Yessir. Very well put. I couldn't have said it any better myself. That was a great break down. I wish I could talk with more boxing fans that was neutral like yourself.
The tale of pacquiao vs mayweather. You know we need this hancho & speaking as a fan we know its a big ask given the sheer layers of dialogue & events surrounding that fight but thats why you are the only one too do it justice & go in depth & detail about everything surrounding the fight. Much love from the UK
I'm just as casual boxing fan. I like your clear voice, I'm a bit deaf. I like your honesty very much, you don't pretend to know it all. I like your sharp assessment plainly said. Comentators of your standard are few and far between.
Today most young prospects are so scared of losing that they don't actually fight. If you aren't an A list fighter and you lose, people think your career is over
Sorry... I'm not a Cotto fan... but at 6:23 there is no buckle... at all. In slow-mo anything can look like a buckle, but he took that punch and kept going. He had a great chin.
A fight between two bald guys is always more interesting because it is easier to see when a punch lands or misses and bleeding, bruises, and cuts are more visible.
I never watched this fight i wasnt into the fight game like now i love it all boxin mma...i dnt knw who won this fight never seen it and havent looked at either of there records but from what i knw about cotto n zab...cotto breaks him down somewhere afta the 5th round zab just didnt have tht dog like cotto n i love zab slick left hand but just im talkin in the ring cotto had more of what makes u a real legend like cotto
I was at this fight. Best fight I've ever been to! The crowd were nuts & the fight was great apart from cotto low blows which should have been 2 point deduction.

Great video, please create a playlist or something of your music choices for these videos I really like your selection
You have any ideas for the next one?
Do a tale of juan manuel marquez vs manny pacquiao 1
Do a tale of Bowe vs Holyfield 1 if you haven't or Toney vs Jirov
Videos like this are perfect yeo

It's both actually. HBO Legendary Nights: The Tale of "Insert boxer vs other boxer."

Same here yo. Puerto Rican from NY BUT I was also a big Zab Judah fan.
Do vargas & trinidad 🇵🇷 that was legendary
Hell yeah I would love to see that
Hell yeah that was a classic
Yes please
Do it!
That double left hook. Ouch!
Even the ref was amazing at the fight.
The moment we all been waiting for! Let’s get ready to rumble!
I read that in Michael buffer voice 😂
@@ForeverZoeful I typed it while listening And watching the canelo vs smith fight
I remember how hyped I was for this fight, it did not let down. One of my top ten fights to go back and watch. Pure entertainment
Love how you tried to split the blame on the fight being dirty lmaoooo. Was a great video tho can’t even lie
And RIP Sweet Pea
These "The Tale Of" videos are among the best boxing videos on TH-cam. Thank you.
best boxing channel and I'm very confident of that.
I'd buy that for a Dollar
Rummys corner is very good too
Official HanchoBoxing, Rummys Corner, and Boxing LegendsTv are all definitely on Mt Rushmore of TH-cam boxing channels
@@pancho3068 yes rummy's
Cotto is criminally underrated.
I dont think so. Real boxing fans know his worth
@@carlospowell7672 not too many real boxing fans left meng.
Cotto did the Puerto Rican special when he was in trouble; the ball breaker
Those with PR girlfriends understand

Lol 😆 🤣 😂 damn now that i think of it yea

Dude all boxers do that all of them or elbow your just a fan boy ignorant and butthurt because we destroy your gayboxers
I still remember watching this fight live. One of the first fights I watched with my entire family and family friends. It was amazing how Cotto and boxing could bring people together. Cotto is a Puerto Rican legend.
Benard Hopkins vs Tito Trinidad 9/11 fight story. I will definitely donate to Patreon for that!
Man these "Tale of" videos are HITTIN. Much respect. Keep'em coming.
I like how they call Floyd a cheat and all that shit but no one bats an eye after seeing all those blatant lowblows that cotto delivered
They were not blatant. Obviously you have no experience boxing.

Great video OfficeHancho. Though not the best fight to remember due to the amount of heated fouls, it was exciting at the time it happened from two underrated fighters in Cotto and Judah.
Huh? Nobody has ever underrated Cotto, and Zab has always been overrated because of his attitude and athleticism.
This was the fight that introduced me to boxing and haven’t stopped watching ever since
Cotto vs margarito next. The brutal nature of the bouts along with the hand wrap controversy makes for a great story
Thank you for this upload. This was an underrated welterweight matchup imo.
It’s like a short Hollywood film. Brilliant editing work, OfficeHanchoBoxing.

Lol dirty ass fighter. Do you not see the low blows? WTF
Office Hancho stay dropping gems. Thanks for all you do, champ
You and Motivedia are the best boxing channels!
hancho, motivedia and modern martial artist for me
Hanzagod, reznick, Jeff Jackson, legendary boxing highlights and elterrible productions are all great too.
@@YouAintGotNoTegridyBoi love reznick
Remember watching this and Cotto was landing COMBINATIONS to his sack.
Damn hancho is pumping out these vids. Couldn't be happier

everything a boxer should be: that's Miguel Cotto

Hancho no question your the best boxing channel on TH-cam keep up the great work ❤️❤️❤️
Rest in peace to the greatest of all time Parnell Whitaker. And seeing Mike Tyson celebrate for Zab Judah victory is so beautiful.
Adding the ref parts makes this video amazing. Dope ass video my guy dope.

Always a good day when Hancho posts a video
Cotto is a pretty class act guy,,,but he was dirty this fight 😂
im pretty sure he did dis because he didn’t like zab at all because he was a dirty fighter
One of my favorite fights ever ; Violent,dirty,bloody,beautiful.
Great video! I love learning about the stories that I would otherwise never know.
damn that was good! adding that ending too, with seeing tyson react like that was beautiful! wish i could give you another like
This is some good stuff 👏 I show all my little brothers your videos to get them into boxing 🥊
Favourite TH-camr, great video
Why I am more interested to watch the old generation than the new generation boxers?
Because they used to actually BOX and fight the best!
Today most young prospects are so scared of losing that they don't actually fight. If you aren't an A list fighter and you lose, people think your career is over
When i was growing up these guys were the new generation so looking back its a blessing to have this been the norm at one point as a boxing fan
@@TheShawn2996 yeah, I'm also hoping for a legacy fights for the new generation. Fights to light up our passion.
@@smolyponks Teo and Loma deserve more credit then the rest of these guys for actually fighting and unifying belts
Finally an upload from Hancho ♥️
Keep these coming
Both great fighters. Big fan...
Judah ia very skilled, could've been a great boxer if he is disciplined and composed in his best career fights.
And would have been ppv star had the hiphop crowd before Mayweather
@@rasulkhalid5773 hip hop crowd??
@@Ready4Whatever yes the main stream. Rap is know popular music.
@@Ready4Whatever judah was the original Broner
Awesome, thanks for this one. Merry Christmas 🎄
@OfficeHanchoBoxing man I love this series. Can we get one on Floyd & Manny? Also, i think it would be dope to do a Spence vs Crawford prelude tale
Awesome I was glued to the docu
You videos are always so thorough! Stay up! 💪🏿💪🏿👌🏿🤟🏿👍🏿👍🏿
thanks for the great videos
Cotto vs judah is one of the best fight
not a boxing fan but i love your stuff!
This is going to surprise you, but you're now a boxing fan.
Welterweight was on fire back then !!!
Love these videos man, keep it up
Fuck you officehancho started this morning with tears. Love the videos man!
Sorry... I'm not a Cotto fan... but at 6:23 there is no buckle... at all. In slow-mo anything can look like a buckle, but he took that punch and kept going. He had a great chin.
Keep going with this series!!!!!
You should do mayweather vs gatti or Barrera vs Hamed next
Can we get some Hector Camacho content!!!! I think he deserves it.
Absolutely
I love this series
Not going to lie. I like that ref a hell of a lot more now after seeing him handle this.
🔥🥊😀 Excellent fight review.that fight was deeper than I thought. Respected both fighters after that battle.
GREAT GREAT WORK...KEEP IT COMING!
2:15 Read an article saying that Cotto had won most of his titles as vacant. The article is actually discrediting Cotto as a future Hall og Famer
Cotto is not a future hall of famer maybe in Puerto Rico yeah
Hell yeah I’m puertorican and I loved this video
defo should do more of these great video
Dam , that Collazo Vs Hatton fight was so good.
I always liked Cotto.......
A fight between two bald guys is always more interesting because it is easier to see when a punch lands or misses and bleeding, bruises, and cuts are more visible.
This was gd.
I really enjoyed seeing both of these fighter's work, they were two of my favorites & both deserve this moment in the light...✊🏽👊🏿👊🏼👍🏽
This is wrong. Nobody in PR thought Quintana will win that fight..
Back when you didn’t have to worry abt so many people together man it won’t ever be the same again or anytime soon at least
People are together now
Nice little early Christmas present here
UR videos are great
Can you do Pacquiao and Margarito or
Cotto and Margarito 1 & 2
Dope...instant classic,great ending,leaves you motivated.
I never watched this fight i wasnt into the fight game like now i love it all boxin mma...i dnt knw who won this fight never seen it and havent looked at either of there records but from what i knw about cotto n zab...cotto breaks him down somewhere afta the 5th round zab just didnt have tht dog like cotto n i love zab slick left hand but just im talkin in the ring cotto had more of what makes u a real legend like cotto
I was at this fight. Best fight I've ever been to! The crowd were nuts & the fight was great apart from cotto low blows which should have been 2 point deduction.
Mercante is such a good referee. You could tell he really cared about zab. Idk if they knew each other from before but it was cool
I'm super surprised with the fouls...
Great video
Zab “you know what I’m sayin” Judah
Love this series
One of Judah’s best fights even though he lost. Say what you want, the low blows we’re the difference in the fight. Pre-tat Cotto was a problem.
After cotto, judah was never the same.
Amazing video thank you
Great video, rip pernell
Love this video!
