Seems a lot of peoples views on Cotto have changed since his defeat. So, if Clottey defeats Judah, and fights Cotto, who takes it?
This will be Cotto's next big fight. Clotty will handle Judah and wait for Cotto's return. (Per Arum)
I think that we need to see Cotto in action again to see how that beating has affected him. Based on the pre margo cotto I'd say cotto wins it.
Clottey can take everything throw at him, though he doesn't put pressure like Margarito. It will be interesting. The problem for Cotto are his cuts, in the Judah fight his mouth got ****ed up badly, now if he gets hit hard in the mought it would probably bleed fast. His eyes get cut easily also. Cotto better rest.
I've all ways have said Clottey is underrated. Clottey matched Margos stamina in their ultra high paced fight. and he took The Tornados shots very well up and down. African fighter have a similar work ethic as Mexican fighters in the sense that they grind it out, take and withstand punishment to get their oppurtunuties. This would be a hard fight for Cotto. I would get him to fight someone else before putting him in another hard battle. Maybe against a boxer style fighter like Collazo. Not sayin Cotto would lose, but it would be too much in the wake of the beating he took from Margo.
I hope Cotto would not take on a fight with a top WW right now. Now is the time he should be fighting guys like Gomez, to at least get his confidence back. I think Clottey or Zab could beat him if the fought either one his next fight.
Yeah, exactly what I thought about the Margarito-Clottey fight. I really thought Clottey was winning that fight.
a win over the much over rated andrea berto would be a good confidence booster for miguel but i'd imagine he'd fight some one like Delvin Roudriguez
Cotto need not fight Clottey or Judah. Margarito should fight the winner in a unified title fight for the WBA and IBF Belts in a couple months from now. Cotto I thinks doesn't need an immediate rematch with Margarito, that's just disaster for Cotto
i am a cotto fan but a boxing fan first and foremost. and no way should cotto be given a title shot against the winner of clottey - judah without at least one good win under his belt.
