Cintron vs Williams:
Kermit was giving Paul a good and tougher than expected fight before he was launched out of the ring in the 4th round. Before the fight, I thought Paul would easily handle Kermit, but that wasn't the case, albeit it was only 3.5 rounds. But Kermit was boxing well and he is always equipped with that great equalizer, natural knockout power. These two have unsettled business and this rematch needs to happen, hopefully sooner than later.
Cotto vs Foreman:
Cotto didn't "dominate" Foreman until after the knee injury in the 7th round. Prior to that, Yuri was still in the fight and even caught Cotto with a straight right hand that seemed to bother the former Welterweight. We all know Cotto gasses in the late rounds and I was very curious to see how he handled the extra weight during the second half of the fight. This was a championship fight and it's a somewhat tainted victory given the unfortunate circumstances. Yuri deserves the opportunity to regain his Championship especially because of the ****ty hand he was dealt last night.
I say make the rematches and the winners can move on to fight each other. Questions would be answered and their next fights would be more meaningful.
