Yuri has only 8 ko's.... Feather fisted

I think Cotto will be frustrated by the middle rounds, and will look bad enough over the duration that there will be little doubt. If it's very close, that could be worrisome, but my expectation is that it won't be, once things get in full swing.

Foreman has a good chin, and Cotto may have outboxed a SSM intent on brawling (and has underrated boxing skill in general) but he is in with a superior technician. So really the question becomes, how exactly does Cotto win?

 

he's featherfisted not like paulie who is one handed fighter. he beat strong puncher and experienced fighter in daniel santos. he even dropped him.

 

i know foreman will use his height and reach outboxing cotto.. i just hope cotto will be able to cut the ring/chase foreman and had some ribs buffet

Other than the out of shape Santos! The fighters that Foreman has fought are not what I would call quality opponents. I don't recognize any of the names at all. I think he is going to be undressed by Cotto!:bbb

 

You need to watch more boxing then (or are a relative newcomer).

Tsurkan and Roman aren't so much relevant now, but were respected LMW bodypunchers when Foreman faced them.

Yuri has seen Miguel's style before, if not his class.

Edge in top-level experience aside, this is still new waters for Cotto as well. The only other person he faced who was this much bigger wasn't anywhere near as skilled.

 

Yeah right! I'll put my boxing I.Q. against anybody. Foremans resume is not that great!

 

It has nothing to do with IQ or analytical ability. If you haven't seen the fighters, you aren't in a position to comment. If you don't know who Tsurkan or Roman are, you either A) don't watch enough boxing, or B) are a relative newcomer.

At the time Foreman fought them, if you were actively watching boxing on more than a casual basis, you should have been aware of who they were, and known they were respectable contenders.

 

You got it right! Respectable contenders! Not in the same class as the fighters Cotto has fought. Not the kind of wins that make a legit contender either:hey You are being a little pompous!

 

atsch

 

Cotto isn't bad technically, but he's not the best. It's just as easy to find people overrating his boxing ability as it is to find people underrating it.

 

Not in Germany, apparently.

 

Or Turkey.

Damn those former Axis powers!

 

I don't know what your smoking man. Foreman is simply going to get outclassed.

 

Hey! Cotto undressed Foreman! Do I still need to watch more boxing (or am I still a newbie):rofl
