It's not Joe Louis vs. Max Schmelling, but somebody, perhaps a turkmen, a muslim, or Amir can deal with the good Rabbi if Cotto should fail in his attempt, which by all account, even from his sand baggin trainer, is not a sure thing. Uri is a good guy, but in a larger context, boxing being an enterprise of worldwide sociocultural significance, somebody will have to deal a symbolic blow to the grand injustice of our times, in grand dramatic fashion...for as the great MLK said, injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere...
Foreman boxes circles around Cotto. Miguel's fans will be complaining he was shot after the fight, believe that.
I have the feeling too that Yuri will decision Cotto. The man sitting at ring side may just have to put the weight of more than the poor of his countrymen, but the added burden of the politically oppressed people of the world...that may just give him another ulcer...does he have it in him?
Somebody will beat him, but Amir is way too small to move up to that weight right now and be successful
khan v foreman would make more sense would be hilarious if they billed the fight as "HOLY WAR"... Khan would dominate Yuri though.
It would make for a great 24/7 Khan has the frame to grow into, the reach, the style ...but does he have the passion to politicize it, the cunning to market it, to exploit the ready made story line?
