Would it be a Jab Fest?
Dzinziruk has good jab with good timing; his chin seems sturdy; doesnt move around alot so i think Cotto can outbox him. Theres a big height difference though with Dzinziruk being 6'0 and Cotto at 5'7 1/2 i belive. Is this a good test for Cotto? How would it play out?
The jab is something i wondered about too but Cotto has good movement and will probably catch much of those jabs on the gloves; however I dont see Dzinziruk getting away from Cottos jabs. Also there is the height difference which may play against Cotto.
I don't see Cotto's jab or most of anything else effective against Dzinziruk,he has that Winky Wright,Graciano Rocchigiani type defence which is impenetrable.
Kinda shocked to see Cotto winning this poll TBH. I wasn't overly impressed by his win over Foreman, who was certainly still in the fight when his leg went out. Dzinziruk doesn't have a lot of power, but his jab is phenomenal and his defense tight. SD by UD.
I disagree here.....he applies pressure and is aggressive especially when he's in his groove.He doesn't have power that's true but I don't see Cotto getting out of the way of the jab.
I'd say Dzinziruk UD.

Dzinziruk doesn't have the style that usually troubles Cotto. He isn't agressive; doesn't aply much pressure, and he isn't much of a puncher. He's better then Foreman, I can say that much. I'd pick Cotto to win a U.D though.

eastern europeans are bad money unless they fight out of germany, canada, australia (as their adopted country). Casual fans like watching people of their own country so they can relate to them. Thats probably the main reason why broadcasters dislike them. Eastern europe is a copyright piracy heaven so probably they couldnt even sell it there.
the only few fighters that brake the boundaries of country and race (for casuals) are the really great ones like tyson, ali or pac.

even at 154 Dzinziruk has never faced no one like Cotto.easy win for Cotto but it will only spark rumor that hes ducking Angulo,Cintron,Pwill,Martinez or Margarito rematch so even with two belts wont do nothing for Cottos career!!!!
Unify two world titles?
Defeat an undefeated 5 year world champion?
Avenge his countryman Daniel Santos, who Dzinziruk took the WBO title from 5 years ago? Santos was in his prime and coming off a win over Margarito at the time.
Yeah tru... I mean Dzinziruk isnt the most exiciting fighter but i think this would be an interesting matchup and a good test for Cotto. I think it would also force Dzinziruk to come out of his shell somewhat i guess.
