    Never ever bet with your heart. It ****ing sucks. Thats why i try not to be a fan of a particular fighter. It really deludes my betting.

    I saw Foreman's last fight and I dunno how anyone is predicting him to win. People must have never seen this guy before. He's a C-class fighter at best. Miguel should totally dominate him unless the weight is a big factor or something.

    Absolutely. Fan at heart, cold-blooded gambler.

    Someone needs to compile a Teddy Atlas predictions page. He can't be as bad as I hear.

    Cotto generally destroys guys with Foreman's outside fighting style. I can however agree that Cotto might take an L, but not because he's shopworn. Junior Middleweight isn't his weight class, IMCV. The Urkal fight, Cotto's heaviest, was a clear indication of how well he carries that small bit of excess weight. Not well. Also, wouldn't be surprised at all if Foreman's punches bother Cotto more than vice-versa, despite all existing preconceptions about who is capable of doing more damage. Cotto's punch resistance has never been especially good at any weight class. Again, up at 154, even against a lighter hitter like Foreman, some well timed right hands could spell trouble for him. Cotto will have to be very thoughtful about how he paces this fight. Big dilemma for him. Too much too soon and he will **** himself late. Not enough early and Foreman might be able to run away with it. Wouldn't want to be in his camp, unless they already know Cotto is carrying the weight well.

    Foreman is an average fighter with NO power.

    I'd still say Cotto via clear decision here.

    One shot power clearly belongs to Santos who wobbled Margarito twice in their fight.

    How so? Atlas is not usually off in his predictions.
