Cotto looked good but I think he's lost a step. He dominated because he has so much more skill than Kamegai that he was never in trouble but honestly he looked a little slower than usual last night No idea who he will fight next. Probably stay away from GGG, Canelo. Maybe he can get the other Charlo, Andrade or a top dog at 54.. I'd like to see him against Lara but would there be enough money for both of them? I doubt it. I think he will opt for Khan, Brook or Mathysse if no GGG-Canelo fight comes tru. the first three are somewhat is size and are big names in boxing so its an easier sell.

as entertaining as kamegai is, this is why Japan has no elite fighters in the game right now. the technique is ****ing terrible.

He didn't look rusty to me doe. What say you? True Cotto wasn't up against a great boxer. he had ring rust in the first few rounds. he was taking punches from kamegai that otherwise would never land on him. After the 4th round or so Kamegai bearly touched him.

Kamegai has a better chin than Margarito. i think so too. Cotto stunned Margarito at times but Kamegai just ate them like candy

Is crazy how Cotto at 36 is better than his version at 28-30 when he was with diaz and steward. This Cotto version is better than the one who fought Foreman, Clottey, Pacquiao and margarito second fight.

Cotto looked damn good for 36 Yea he did. I was especiLly impressed with his conditioning. I was expecting him to fad. It never did. He finally learned that conditioning is crucial in boxing.
