    Even though it can virtually be seen as a 50/50 fight, Im really just not that excited for this fight...

    This is one of those fights where I hope that Cotto wins, but I am scared about him looking bad. Always sucks to see a fighter "change".

    So I am pumped for the fight, but a bit hesitant.

    I'll be chillin', sipping on my St. Ides, while enjoying the opportunity of watching Cottoe become utterly frustrated early on. Then halfway through the fight the predictable will once again occur: Cottoe will begin running like a gazelle running away from a lion in the wild. Foremen will stalk him down and take his overrated ass out.

    St Ides? I'm getting a flashback to 1995. I used to drink 3 40's in a night. ****.

    nobody can really be that pumped for this fight. Maybe looking forward to it, maybe got some plans revolving around it, but to be ****ing pumped? That's got to be a stretch.

    i don't see it as a 50/50. This a big step in class for Foreman, Cotto has to start as overwhelming favourite.

    Possibly the reason why it doesn't sound exciting is people question Yuri's power. If a fight involves a guy who probably can't out-skill the other guy, and he can't knock the other guy out either, it's kind of a foregone conclusion he's going to lose, isn't it?

    For some reason when you spell Cotto's name like that, I hear it the way Manny Steward says it :lol:

    And yes...I'm pumped.
