I been calling this fight after the jmm/Floyd fight for Marquez to win, giving him the edge on intelligence, posters then went bizzerk and claimed Cotto would murder him.
I give JMM the intelligence factor as well. Don't see it being murderer if Cotto does win either. I say a split decision for cotto
Now the only way this right is possible is at a above 147 catch and really there's no reason for these to aged veterans legacy wise. Coulda been a classic imo
Cotto's not really a fully fledged 154 pounder, he didnt really out-grow 147 he was run out of welter by pacman.. Thing is Cotto seems to have lost his punch power which is weird cos thats the last thing thats supposed to go, Cotto's heart doesnt seem in it anymore & I'd pick Marquez by late KO
I think he's trying to go out on a good note, but he looked out ta shape in the trout match, maybe he ain't as serious anymore as he thinks he is. Then the whole Trainer changing thing, not good.
I don't believe he has the true drive anymore especially to make 147. Also I be line he felt he was just going to walk in there and take a hungry Trouts belt. Reminds me of ODLH, when Valero said Oscar was lazy for the PAC camp and wouldn't run on days.
