I think this is going to be a tough fight for Cotto regardless of the fact that James is chinny. James is going to come right after him and it wouldn't surprise me to see Cotto hurt in this fight and on the back foot. I would venture to guess Cotto's boxing ability will be able to win the day but he has been out of the ring for some time and James is back with the one who got him there.
Im not sure why Cotto isnt fighting Wolfe! That might make things more interesting and get more PPV buys!
This is a mismatch. Cotto will exhibit superior boxing, footwork, timing, defence, and will take that silly brawler to school.
Well Im not sure what your problem with Cotto is. He is a hall of fame fighter and always gave us good fights and his all. You sound angry.
He WAS a good fighter up till he legitimately got his ass kicked by Antonio Margarito that beating took Cotto's heart . Then instead of taking it like a man he joined in with the ludicrous loaded gloves Bull Chit.
Kirkland already sounds punch drunk and will undoubtedly get battered by anyone with world class skill, even if that fighter is declined.
