    Yup.

    Brother Nazim had the a good strategy, too. But with the fighter at his disposal, it didn't mean much.

    i really don't see cotto winning....and i am a huge cotto fan. But i at least hope its competitive! Although.....PBF said he will not be running, and he is going to stand toe to toe and fight. This may be to cotto's advantage.

    The man is very thorough in his approach ..I wouldn’t take what he says lightly but Mayweather is one of those puzzles that’s difficult to figure out .

    I like Diaz...I think he will breath new life into Cotto that will further his progress as a great fighter. Diaz seems to mesh well with Miguel. They have a good chemistry from what has been shown and I think he'll do better than most expect against Floyd. I think Floyd wins clearly.... but I think Miguel will be handing out some quality work that will make Floyd work harder than expected.

    I have a strong feeling Miguel is going to be focusing on the body and slowing Floyd down late in the fight. The only problem is Cotto is known to fade himself so I think Floyd will have more left in the tank even after the body work Cotto dishes out.

    I hope diaz really focuses on his conditioning. he needs to be ready to fight every minute of all 12 rounds. he seemed to have helped with his stamina against margo, so we will see.

    I always wonder about Floyd's tender left side that he always wears the pad on in training. I know he had to re-sechedule a fight because he had a rib injury there, but that was a few years ago. Yet, he still wears that same pad during training.

    Cubans are passionate and meticulous when it comes to sports, thus the reason Diaz has a freaking PHD.....it all steams back to their government and culture. With that being said its pretty clear Diaz probably has an excellent game plan and if Cotto can execute (he can but will he) I can surely see Cotto making a case for a "W" in this fight. At the moment I'm leaning towards Floyd.

    "On May 5th, you will witness one of the best fights in recent years. Very simple: Inside the ring, the fists do the talking. In the ring, it is the preparation that speaks. And in the ring, the tactics are what speaks. There is no invincible man. The victory is for Puerto Rico."

    I second that, I think this fight is going to be excellent. I'm a big fan of the both fighters and their resumes.
