    Some Things you should Look for in COTTO-JUDAH

    Zab is really fast, obviously faster then anybody cotto has ever faced.

    Cotto is a strong body puncher, the best body puncher ZAB has ever faced.


    Anyway, Cotto gets hit a lot. And what does a lot (Against, Mayweather, Tszyu, Spinks...) is after a missed/blocked right hook, he'll immediately come back with a straight left.

    He buzzed mayweather and tszyu by doing it, and those guys are far better and more experienced the Cotto is now. And Cotto gets hit a lot more.

    So i think Cotto gets hurt badly by a straight left off a missed right hand.



    Miguel Cotto is a strong body puncher. He has a competant jab. Anyway, against Mayweather and tszyu and even spinks, probably others as well, When zabs confidence rises, his hands drop.

    And he does it all the time, so its not gonna change. But its good for him cause he holds them around his body and protects his body. But Cotto always jumps in with the jab kinda awkwardly if u know what i mean.

    So this is what i think happens. Judah just ****s Cotto for the first few rounds. Hurts him badly and and wobbles Cotto. Cotto may weather that storm and if he does adjust to the speed, he'll have a judah with low hands.

    So i think Judah gets caught with a flush jab-right hook and his forced to go into a corner or the ropes, and and Cotto gets to the body well. then he does it again and again and again, and maybe hurts Judah BADLY to the body.

    Judahs confidence drops, holds his hands higher, body is more open, Cotto gets some great work done there. With no other options, Judah will HAVE to fight back, and then who ever gets caught first will lose.

    Its a little picky of me. Like a bit a exact. The chances of these things happening arent all that great. But it think they will.

    I pick Cotto winning, but if Cotto cant weather the early storm and adjust, then its JUDAH by EARLY KO

    I thought Judah would win but I have changed my mind, I think Cotto will win but Judah will give him his toughest test, This fight is a 50/50 for me, any of them could win, depends on who wants it more.

      i just hope nobody comes with the "i told you so" **** after the fights over because just about everyone outside of a handful of people are flip flopping on this fight like it's going out of style.

      cotto is going to win because he is the better fighter. that's my prediction. if im wrong im wrong...life goes on.

        Cotto isnt a better body puncher then Ward. I think its close to a 50/50 fight but Im picking Zab because I think his southpaw style will give him a big problem just like Chop did. Cotto has done good against other soutpaws but those guys go backwards and Paulie had some good moments. Chop came right back at him and so will Zab.

        Its just like the Floyd fight early. Zab's speed is good but thats secondary. Its his speed combined with his southpaw style. It takes awhile to figure out and I think Cotto will get caught by some flush punches and Zab is a much better finisher then those other guys he's fought

          I know this will happen. I have thought about this situation many times. Cotto lunges in when he throws straight rights too. I can see Zab tagging him with that. I dont know if Cotto can take that punch or not. If he can then I think he will eventually stop Judah.

            o yea ward. Well Cotto is obviously a better fighter then ward techinically and hits just as hard.

            And Zab may start out coming at him, but once he feels the body shots i bet he backs off and Cotto becomes the agressor.

            I agree with the last paragraph. Thats what im saying. Cotto wont be used to that in the early goings, so its possible that he just gets blown out. But he'll have 15,000 puerto rican fans versus Judahs 5,000 NY fans. The crowd should allow him to weather to storm until he can figure him out.

            As soon as Cotto figures out the southpaw stance and the speed, its gonna be high octane action until someone has had enough

              This will NOT be a close fight, whatsoever.

                The only problem with that theory is that Cotto doesn't throw the straight right as much as those other fighters. Cotto leads with his left, far too often, but it's effective, so he keeps doing it. When he does use the right, it's always after the jab or a left hook.

                BTW, I've picked Cotto to win from the beginning. I just don't think Zab will be able to handle the pressure (he crumbles against pressure fighters) so Cotto will catch him and punish him. I think Zab will probably win the first two rounds because he'll dance around and get out of Cotto's way but he'll eventually catch up to him and tire him out to the body.

                Cotto KO 6.

                  Oh, and the southpaw stance won't bother Cotto much. He's a natural lefty and knows what to expect. Just look at the Quintana fight.

                    yeah and I also dont mean that Zab's just going to stalk him. Ill just think he'll mix it up but wont stay going backwards like a Spinks. One thing I dont want to see is Cotto breaking Zab's spirit. That has happend to Zab a few times against bums and it looks bad but against Cotto it will look brutal. Against Baldy, Pineda, and a few others, the fight go boring and they were taking the fight to Zab as it went on. He's still won his share of those fights but the crowd booed and he looked so unconfident. If that happend against Cotto it will be so embarrasing because Zab will almost be running late while Cotto is trapping him in the corner and murdering him with punches. He'll never get a big fight again if that happends. Even against Floyd that basically happend. Zab has to understand that if things arent going his way then he cant just go into a shell. He has to do something and he has to let his hands go
