This is why I predict Cotto will pressure, **** to the body and eventually send Zab to the canvas or make him quit either in the ring or on his stool. Zab's best chance is to catch Cotto early, out him in trouble and finish him without getting finished himself.
    Right on the money $$$.

      Put it this way, If Margarito fans wanna see him in there instead of Judah on june 9th....

      I would advise you all to go to your local hospital and put your name on the Transplant List.

      Cos Margarito would need new liver and kidneys after that fight.

Judah isnt any bigger than cotto either. In fact at 5'7" they are both a little short. And while i do think Judah will do a better job of staying away then quintana, did I dont think he will be able to absorb as much punishment either

          Margarito on the other hand could be another life and death fight as Margarito is in Cottos face all night probably getting popped but landing some big shots too, ala Torres.

          Judah poses lots of problems for Cotto. He is super fast and has punching power in both hands. I think Cotto can win but no means is this a give me fight. If Judah hurts Cotto he will finish him, if Corley and Torres can put Cotto on ***** street so can Judah. The difference is Judah is better and can finish. Margario is a slow lengthy fighter with a chin and he grinds on oppenents. This is just what Cotto wants a long body to rip on over and over and over again.

                All the speed and supposive power didnt help him against Baldomir, or tszyu. Cotto is great at applying pressure, which has given judah problems time and time again. No fight is a give me fight, but lets be real about this Cotto is going to be the next one to lay definitive beating on Judah. Judah, while not feather fisted like spinks, isnt a power hitter as some here are making him out to be and the results in previous fights has shown it. He also isnt a master boxer like floyd and when the pressure is on he can and has been gotten to.

                The question here is not weather Cotto will get to Judah or Margarito....... Cotto will get to both that is basically a given. The real question is who is gonna take the shots and still stand and be able to fight back..... reason would suggest that is Antonio Margarito. That is not even taking into account Margarito's physical advantages.

                  Arum already said that the winner will fight Margarito (if he beats Williams)...

                    I think Williams is going to be fighting the winner.

                      No, because Margarito gets hit alot, has no jab and frankly, the way Cotto's defense is setup, he could just feasibly turtle for 12 rounds throwing counter shots and Margarito could do little to stop it because of his terrible footwork and wide punches that can be seen a mile away.
