why everybody talk about cotto's stamina?? wasn't cotto the guy that fought with mosley for 12 nonstoping rounds??
He also kept getting stronger in his 11 round TKO of Judah. Clottey stamian should be the real question mark here, he takes off rounds and he always seem to fade late in fights.Plus Clottey doesn't throw much and he didn't look very impressive against Judah. He can block punches is a decent counterpuncher but his power is suspect and he fades as the fight goes on. Cotto will wear him down and take him out late.
Easy fight for Cotto believe it or not Clottey doesnt move too much or he is not that agressive.he tends to hide behind that peak a boo style of his and Cotto in the mean time is goin to be hammering those shoulders,forearms,and his trade mark body punches!!Cotto will wear him down like that and i predict a 9rd tko for Cotto!!!!
I believe.... not. Cotto can win, but an easy win is ridiculous. Clottey is an inside fighter but he isn't stationary like Winky. The later rounds is when Clottey will get tired, but he gets desperate and rough then.
Just to mix it up a bit, I'm taking Clottey SD. He will be able to walk Cotto down like Margarito did with the rocks in his gloves. Clottey will be able to outbox a worn out Cotto in the late rounds to pull out a razor-thin decision...lmao
Cotto by tough decision. I think it'll be fairly boring to be honest. Clottey will block a lot of punches but I don't know if he'll throw enough. I'm taking Cotto on activity, and he's a pretty accurate puncher himself. Clottey will hold a lot, I think tempers could flare. But it'll be at a measured pace that I think Cotto will dictate due to Clottey being so defensive minded.
very good point.... i think it will be close the first half of the fight, but after than clottey will go into his shell and cotto will end up knocking him out...

I think cotto will have his work cut out for him... it depends on how clotteys hands hold up... if they do... then clottey can possibly take this...
the thing i worry about is, usually when people fire punches at him he goes into a shell and can be out worked...
the good thing for clottey is cotto doesnt have the most air tight defense ive seen
