    foreman is gonna frustrate him with movement and i dont think cottos footwork (which was already ponderous at 147) is gonna be up to it at 154. I see at close 8-4/7-5 decision for foreman and hopefully the scorecards reflect this

    Foreman Decision. I want Cotto to win though and i refuse to put money on Foreman winning even though i think i could make some nice cash. Dont want to bet on Cotto losing, does'nt feel right as a fan.

    As much as I love to gamble just for the sport of it....


    I ain't touchin this one. No one in the world knows what the hell will happen. All emotions aside, there are a few things to consider:

    Cotto may be shopworn.
    Cotto has a new trainer.
    Cotto is moving up in weight.
    Cotto is fighting in NYC (up in the Bronx, in fact).
    Foreman is taller and a boxer.
    Foreman is considered featherfisted.
    Foreman is probably oozing with confidence.
    Foreman is considerably less battle-tested than Cotto.


    Too many unknowns. Keep your money and buy a hooker or something.

    I disagree. If you believe there is all these unknowns, then you should view this as a 50/50 fight or close to it. However, the odds don't reflect this. The odds are scewed firmly in Cotto's favor. This means that Foreman is the smart bet under this scenario as his chances of winning are greater than is reflected in the odds. I would only say not to touch this fight if you're a Cotto fan and you don't want to bet against your guy.

    Are you crazy? Big George might be old but he's still three times the size of Miguel Cotto. It's not even a question mark. I don't even think this **** is sanctioned!
