WITH rOACH IN jR S Corner who knows jr beats foreman also. slight edge to Cotto. never know with Roach.
Word. Cotto would win just off his experience alone. Yeah Roach is in J.r's corner, but Cotto got Emuanel in his. That even out the trainers. I doubt it gets made, but I hope it does man. Cotto has one of the greatest records in this era of boxing plus he needs a "booster" fight.
I'm a Cotto supporter and will neva bet against him but in this fight I'm alil concerned...either way WAR COTTO!!
Damn lol. I just don't see what Chavez brings to the table that can knock off Cotto. Anything is possible in boxing especially when young meets old, but other than a large pay check and a famous coach I don't see what else this guy has. Chavez will be in with a beast the type he has never dealt with before.
As a Cotto fan many are crazy to say Chavez Jr. is going to get destroy. I disagree and this fight will be more competitive than many believe. I hope he ko's him, but this is a new and more focus and smarter dedicated Chavez Jr.
LOL Chavez would beat Cotto because he has more reach? Oh yeah, because that's certainly something Cotto has never seen in front of him in the ring before!!
Even at this point, Cotto still hasn't lost his trigger, but I wouldn't underestimate Jr's left hook. Duddy for all he has he does have a hell of a chin, but Jr. is still 2 leagues below the mighty Cotto. Cotto does seem stronger at 154, but I don't think he has the one punch power he had to take out Torres at 140. He has more of that numbing power, but I think his jab might be the key to outbox Jr. Trading with the taller, younger fighter who's being trained by the best in the world shouldn't be for anyone to underestimate. It doesn't matter that Jr fought 100 tomatoes it matters who and how he fought in his last fight and he improved in a short matter of time. I pick Cotto for now, but depending how Jr looks vs. Wolak my money is on Cotto.
I think Arum realized he ****ed up by "Serving up" Foreman to Cotto instead of Chavez Jr. (Jr. will be worth more $ in the long run)
