Looks like cotto is finally going to fight an A list fighter, if he gets past Paulie that is..

Should be a very good fight and will finally answer a few questions.
He's been rocked by B+ fighters, yet has this stupid habit of taking further punishment, rather than taking a knee.
Against the A class, it's going to cost him dearly.
He was rocked by the same fighter that rocked PBF, and a guy who they say may be the hardest hitter at 140 right now. No need to be ashamed of that.
Cotto is a young exciting fighter with lots of power and incredible heart.
holy crap how many threads are there
ok i understand someone before you just said the same thing you just did so your doing the same shit. i wonder if you just go around looking for overdone threads just so you can say this thread is over done. instead of repeating what someone else just said before you why dont you just give your opinion on the fight.
p.s. My boy Floyd laid the smack down on that ass!!!!!
Boxrec: JLC vs. Miguel Cotto for November
Not sure if its going down (boxrec isnt the most reliable) but the have Jose Luis Castillo vs. Miguel Cotto listed for November. Wasn't expecting this fight Cotto will finally be tested against an elite fighter. should be an awesome fight not sure if Cotto can take Castillos power thought. thought on this fight?
Paulie vs Cotto should be interesting, This is perfect to see how Cotto deals with someone who moves like Paulie, Paulie reminds me of Spadafora. But Cotto will break him down and win via TKO most likely. Now if JLC gets past Chico..wow..what a fight my heart is going with Cotto but my brain is saying JLC since he has beaten PBF and Corrales already, Cotto has not steped into the ring againts any fighters on that level yet. So this is his test if he beats JLC it will put him up there with the p4p greats in my opinion.
jlc has already beaten corrales twice. one more ass whipping shouldnt be a problem.
eeewwww my mouthpeice, he wont get away witht that shit again.
hahahahahaha oooohhhh so true! :D
Should make out to be a really interesting fight, that I would definitely want to see. But as others said, Castillo has to get by Diego first.. and though I have Castillo as the favorite IMO in the fight.. crazier things have happened..
As far as Paulie vs Cotto... Eh, Paulie is going to get his ass handed to him. Seriously 1 shot from Cotto is going to literally break Paulie in half.
JLC has to beat corrales first, and cotto has to win his fight, they both could lose, then we'd have corrales, paul macaroni
jlc has already beaten corrales twice. one more ass whipping shouldnt be a problem.
eeewwww my mouthpeice, he wont get away witht that shit again.
paulie will be a solid opponent with a hometown crowd feeding his heart.cotto better bring his "A"game.MSG ain't puerto rico.
paulie having the hometown crowd ??.....this fight is taking place the day before the puertorican day parade !!! ....cotto sold out the garden when he fought there he is getting the support from the puertorican fans that tito had when he was fighting .....the crowd is going to be like 80 % to 20 % in favor of cotto and i am being generous....as far as msg not being puerto rico again, go back and watch any tito fight or the cotto vs. abdulaev at msg and it should answer your question..
5 kos? come on guys, you all know Cotto will walk right over this guy
Dude.
All of the stoppages were from cuts except against Corrales.

Rah not alot of people like Cotto in here. I love the guy! But its about time he got into the ring with an A list Fighter. I think Castillo will knock out corrales and will be in great shape going into the fight with Cotto. I have this bout at 50/50, hopefully Cotto will win and go and fight Hatton and Mayweather!
I like Cotto, and I admire him for taking the fight.
Agreed. Seeing as he's had less than 30 fights he's taken on some big names. Castillo will be his first test at the top level though, and I'm sure he will be knocked out. That chin looked suspect against chop-chop.
Not to mention, Castillo will have the advantage at 140 lbs vs Cotto. Castillo will have that much more energy at that weight, whereas Cotto will be dry from making it.
Well I agree with you on this point. This is also why I think its best for him to do it right away. If he doesnt face Castillo immediately after Paulie then I think he should move up to 147lbs. Either way I dont think Cotto has more than 2 fights left in him at 140lbs, he looks seriously emaciated at 140lbs, but maybe he can do a Castillo and not make weight and whop Castillo, that would be poetic justice.
Inversely I dont think Castillo has more than 1 more fight left in him at 135lbs if that.
Did anyone else catch what was said concerning the Arce vs Alvarez fight. Alvarez in not making weight gave up 25k dollars, (presumably anywhere between 1/2 to 1/3 of his purse) to Arce. I like this rule, punishes those who dont make weight and rewards those who have to fight a heavier guy than initially contracted for.
Suffice to say, Castillo-Cotto is the biggest anticipated event of the year. I've been waiting for someone to finally beat Cotto, and my man Castillo is the one to do it.
Corrales has been damaged too much be Castillo. Corrales has been hurt before, but never has he been hurt and destroyed the way Castillo has done to him. That's the kind of damage that never goes away fully. Castillo will absolutely beat Corrales and then Cotto.
Not to mention, Castillo will have the advantage at 140 lbs vs Cotto. Castillo will have that much more energy at that weight, whereas Cotto will be dry from making it.
Corrales is a fool for not trying to box in the 2nd fight. That way if he got knocked out, he'd have a new plan the third fight. Now he can't try boxing because it could backfire on him and end his career. Very dumb to fight Castillo with the weight issue and very dumb to slug it out with a guy who isn't weight drained.
were talking about cotto not juan diaz.
diaz might be able to beat castillo also though
hahahah I know, and believe it or NOT, knew it all along! Geeze, what a day! :D
btw, why are you in the red? which hard hitter did you piss off? :D
