Zab Judah: "Cotto is Tailor Made For Me"

[Addison]

It's ALL Judah.

He's seen and experienced something like Miguel Cotto before..

Cotto, on the other hand - will be in for a shock.


Cotto gets dead-ended at this level by anyone on it.

He's a ****ing bust.. A hype.

Wow. You're a smart one.

Wow. You're a smart one.

That's what they tell me..

This fight is a pickem fight I think. I think its gonna be who gets hit with the first power punch and how they react to it. Well we all know how they react. Judah either does the chicken dance or if he survives he goes into a shell. When Cotto gets hit he does his own version of the chicken dance, but he can survive.

If Cotto goes into the fight with the mindset that he is the puncher he is going to get hit. He got nailed constantly in the Torres fight because he thought he was the bigger guy. Judah is a good finisher and I don't think he would let him off the hook.

If Cotto goes into the fight and fights a bit defensively, boxes a bit, like in the Abduluev (sp?) fight, he could discourage Zab and win.

I am not "the man" but I play one on t.v. lol.
I think a focused Judah wins, and by that I mean, he has to keep to the gameplan and stick and move. A fighter who doesn't stand in front of Cotto frustrates him. If Zab uses his quickness and power, rather than his own warrior instinct, he outboxes Cotto, who is not a finess fighter but he is a good brawler no doubt. Even when Paulie M. was using the jab and moving, you could see Cotto's inability to do much to a moving target. Granted, Paulie got his face messed up in that one, but it was when he went toe to toe with Cotto that he got nailed. I look for Judah to stick and move early in the fight, and not get into the toe to toe stuff until late, and then, it is Cotto who will be tasting power like he has never seen in an opponant, not the other way around. Zab has been there, done that, against MUCH better opposition, Cotto on the other hand, has not seen a fighter of Zab's skill level to this point in his career, and how he answers when Zab checks his chin will be the question. Not to mention Zab himself has a wicked body punch in his own right. Personaly, I can't wait to be a part of it all, and I am really looking forward to the crowd at Madison Square Garden - it's gonna be a blast...

Zab has fought the MUCH better opposition? Who?

Both men will have to take shots to win and Cotto has proven he can do this, Zab has not right.

People forget that before that one punch Judah was dominating Kosta

For 2 and half minutes of the 1st round.. After that it was ALL TSZYU.. if you want I can upload the figth for you.. it sounds like you need a memory refresher..

I feel bad for Zab... everyone seems to be whopping him and now cotto will too.

[eyeloveboxing]

Zab will destory Cotto and I think Judah will do it in the early rounds. I don't think Cotto could handle any elite fighter.

Wrong! Judah has a chance early on in this fight only because of his power and speed. If he can't get to Cotto early on, he will lose either in a long painful drawn out fashion or crumpled in a corner wondering what next?

IMO Zab should have taken a guy with a little more talent who could give him some much needed rounds to shake off the rust.

Also how is it that so many people underestimate Cotto? The guy is constantly improving and facing a diverse and talented group of opposition. Beating each and every one of them in impressive fashion.

If Cotto goes into the fight with the mindset that he is the puncher he is going to get hit.

How else will he go in there? thinking he's the BOXER?

If Cotto goes into the fight and fights a bit defensively, boxes a bit, like in the Abduluev (sp?) fight, he could discourage Zab and win.

Nahh.. his only chance is to bomb away with body shots to try and take everything out of zab for the later rds....

If he dont get to zabs body, enuff to ware him out... he will lose
