    This fight is being billed as 'shot vs ****'.

    Im not convinced Cotto is shot!!

    Agsinst Marg he took a beating,

    Clottey he won but got criticised for the manour of the win , Pac wins in similar fashion and Clottey gets criticised!!

    Against Pac took a beating , But his 2 losses come against 2 great fighters, not necessarily meaning he's shot

    I think if he struggles at all with Foreman he should retire. He needs to find something else to do after his recent fights.

    He is pretty bad, he comes across as very amateurish, has decent movement, and gets his jab off well, although dont be expecting any kind of a hook or uppercut from him. He came across a terribly slow plodding 10 years passed his best, massively overweight Santos, who for some unexplicable reason, i simply cant fathom, tried attacking and going for big shots, chasing after the more elusive Foreman, when he's always been known for being a counter puncher, and ended up getting embarassed.

    But Foreman has got one hell of a story behind him, being the only Jewish fighter in an arab gym in Israel, so you know he's seen adversity lol.

    I think the way he holds up his glove, he's just asking to be hit in the liver.
