    I voted decision for Cotto.

    He's one of my favourites, but @ lmw I don't expect the KOs as much. They're bigger guys.

    It is what it is.

    War Cotto! :bbb

    Not an easy fight at all trouts has a great overall package and if cotto can win I would be thoroughly impressed.

    Not likely, trout is highly underrated but his skill set, confidence and assertiveness in the ring is still undeveloped even at this stage in the game. I will say that I sorta lean in favor of trout and that cotto would probably have an easier time finding success vs canelo. Tough fight for cotto but I don't expect any less from him.

    I hope Cotto loses

    That way he'll regret losing to Trout for peanuts, when he could fought and lost to Canelo for a great purse.

    Cotto doesn't have a fraction of the power Tito had to bail him out when he was getting outboxed.

    Cotto looked great against Floyd at 154 because he was fighting someone who had a equally small frame like him. With all that he was still busted up badly and outboxed via counters and punching between his shots.

    In Trout he is facing a man who is physically larger than him. He has excellent boxing ability. Has superior range, excellent jabber, and enough power to keep Cotto honest.

    One thing for sure is Cotto will not be walking down Trout and if he tries he will be battered. He isn't going to be boxing backwards against him either.

    Very likely. Trout isn't under rated he is correctly rated. Cotto is very over rated.

    You're right. This could go badly for Cotto.

    He signed the fight under his promotional banner along with Haymon. You really think Miguel is fighting for peanuts??? :roll:

    Cotto ****ed up man, Seriously... 1st off this fight is going to back fire, he should have taken Canelo atleast make some money for **** sakes.
    Anyhow Trout has been in Margaritos camp several times, and has given Tony some good work, I honestly think Cotto is thinking this is the lesser threat, ummm Trout is a hidden threat in this division, Big mistake Miguel is going to lose this, close fight but style wise this is not going to mesh well with Cottos style.
    I got Trout SD
