    Well, I have been a Cotto fan since we were waiting for his pro debut. I really hope he win this fight. But I have been saying for more than a month now. It doesn't look good. Does Cotto has the ability to beat Clottey?? Yes. I just think his camp has been short and not as smooth as they are saying.

    You do not know **** about boxing. Clottey coud not hurt Judah and he won't hurt cotto.Look at clottey's last ten fights he hasn't ko one single fighter actually 16 of his 20 ko's were all africans journeymans with record of 12-24.


    He strugled against Richard Gutierrez a "C" class fighter, but wait now that I've seen clottey's record in details this should be a easy fight for Cotto.If he his as good as I think this will be easy work for Cotto.Mark my words

    Sounds like an informed opinion to me.

    Cotto has tremendous boxing ability, I think he will pick Clottey apart round by round. Not a knockout but just outbox him. Only thing that might get him in trouble is if his training camp was sacrificed around all the drama.

    The triangle theory never works in boxing. Just because fighter A beats fighter B doesnt automatically means that fighter C will beat fighter B...Styles makes fights.

    There is always a flip side to things...If Cotto would have Low blowed Judah, can we assume that Judah was going to KO Cotto?

    i like pac and yeah roach has been right recently, but something about him continually running his mouth about this and that is starting to bother me a bit. I don't remember him talking this much to the media in the past.

    Well, this morning at our local newspaper the Cotto camp said that he is walking right now at 10lbs over the limit, that sounds to me like they are in schedule.

    Clearly underrating Clottey.

    If Margarito, with all his wrappings, was not able to significantly hurt Clottey for 12 rounds, then I don't really see Cotto doing much damage against him.

    Cotto has to box his way for a victory in this fight, and I even think Clottey can really pull out an upset here.

    Further to that - Cotto Judah was before MArgaritto made him look like the elephant man...
