Have you guys actually seen Foreman fight? he might be the ugliest fighter ive seen- his punching style looks hideous- with his elbows tucked in - reaching out- like a shylock grabbing coins off the ground, and when he moves around the ring, he looks like a rat, scampering about looking for money to scavenge. every time he clinches- i swear he puts his arm behind to see if there is a wallet he can grab. Cotto by decisive racial cleansing KO of the Yuri boy.
seriously thoiugh , cotto is a far better quality fighter in every aspect of the sport- a superior fighter and athlete. if this were a coin grabbing competition , then yuri, or a hook nose comp, then yuri, or a circumsision race, yuri. but boxing? cotto. sorry - couldnt help myself, seeing this guys ugly coin grabbing fighting brings out the worst in human nature i swear.
Cotto UD. He's skilled enough to deal with boxers who rely more upon movement than power to win, and Foreman fits that description. I don't see weight being that much of an issue, especially given that he doesn't have to weigh in at 154. He'll be lighter than Foreman, but will still have the power edge and even though Foreman is gritty and can avoid being stopped, Cotto should still bank enough round s with presure and body work to carry the decision.
Cotto has never lost to technical, defensive boxers (see Judah, Clottey, Malignaggi). This will be no different. The only way to beat Cotto is to attack him and make him fight at a frantic pace (see Pacman, Margarito).
I'am pulling for Miguel. He is one of my favourite boxers of the current era. I have a lot more hope for a shut out in this one.
if cotto can get his confidence back and comes in in really good shape he'll win.. he needs to win or retire.. yuris height is what worries me because he seems to have a big advantage on cotto :hat
