    He said that you will see a different Cotto this Saturday and that Clottey's
    view of the belt he saw during the press conference is the last he will ever see.
    Cotto is confident he will take Clottey out.....he also said that after 3 rounds we will see if Clottey has the heart to continue.

    Looks like it will be a very interesting fight......I see Clottey belly up.

    Arturo Gatti said the same thing a billion times. Some guys are what they are.

    i wonder what he means by that? we've already seen him box, move, pressure, etc....

    maybe he's going to go back to his body punching, pressure style more than the boxing one he's been using recently.

    y not clottey is expecting him to fight a certant way he switched his **** up so clottey wont know what to do when a diffrent style of cotto comes in the ring i think its smart IMO

    But if the style is shitty and Cotto opens himself up trying to do something new, He would look very stupid.

    Which is kind of my point. Miguel is what he is and any style change talk is just fluff.

    I reckon its just a psychological tactic to confuse clottey,,,because as you say he's already changed his style away from the crab stance body/ pressure fighter to the sharper hit and move style as worked to perfection against Margo in the early rounds,,we'll see but its a logical psych warfare statement huh?

    Besides which the sharp hit and move style is far more likely to work imho than trying to out pressure a guy who is surely going to try and pull off another Margacheato battleplan. My guess is we see cotto exchanging sharp flurries then getting on his bike momentarily,,only getting into a war as a last resort
