    How does Jennings get a shot at a top 3 world ranked fighter like Cotto when he has only competed at British Domestic level?

    Do you all think that this fight is legitimate and justified or can you think of other opponents you would prefer to see Cotto take on in his come back fight.

    cotto's taken him as a comeback fight. it's just fortuitous for jennings.

    if jennings was genuinely considered a contender by the cotto camp they wouldn't risk a fight like this pre-marg rematch.

    Does a glorified sparring session against a limited opponent really help Cotto prepare for Marg in any way except financially?

    It's the title Hatton held for awhile until he beat Zoo.
