i finally got the chance to see the fight, the low blows looks accidental to me. Big big props to Cotto, he's one tough SOB. i like to see him against Andre Berto someday.

good ****in fight!

We'll have to wait until fight night to see the size difference. The true size difference that is. Cotto can balloon up pretty big overnight and easily take the upperhand. Of course he doesn't wanna be sluggish or slow against a guy like Zab so it would be at a disadvantage for him to do that in this fight. While I agree with all the talk about hard to catch Zab, let's agree on that for about 4 rounds or so. The Zab will slow down. Once Zab slows down, it's all downhill. Body shots will be tearing into him, constant pressure, and power that'll break him apart afew rounds later.

I never brag about how accurate I can be sometimes. But damn.

Did you spell all that out by yourself or did your mommy come in from her job on the corner and help you?

Another fine example of a punk ass kid that shouldn't be allowed to play with their mommy's computer.

If that is the best you bring to the forum, I can see why you sign in under a fake username - you are a punk Alien Tank, you don't even have the balls to sign in under your normal punk ass username - much less the balls it would take to get in the ring, and that's a good thing, because boxing rings are for men not punks.

Zab came in fought a gutsy fight, and lost the war of attrition, Cotto deserved the win. Great fight though, and in a losing effort, Zab looked better and did better than many thought he would. Zab has NOTHING to be ashamed of by this loss. Cotto was the busier fighter and it won it for him. Big props to Cotto. Who surprised me with his jab.

Yes the low blows hurt, and no Zab didn't take the full five minutes he could have taken, but it was no excuse in the loss in my eyes.

After a year long suspension, I thought he fought very well. Cotto is the Champion, and one tough fighter great job by Miguel....

hats off to you man...

the scene should've more posters like you... gracious in defeat, instead of crying and making excuses....

I have enjoyed the jawing between Cotto fans and myself, it's always fun and it's all "in fun" for me. My world doesn't change regardless of who wins it, but I am rooting for my friend Zab. That said, if anyone gives a damn about how I see this fight happening tomorrow night, I invite you to read on.

Miguel is the current Champion, and I give him props for that, but the way I see it, he will have to come up with a HUGE performance to get past Zab.

The only thing that Cotto brings is a good punch, and a decent ability to cut off the ring. For his part, Cotto is in with a fighter in Judah, that is better in nearly every aspect of the game, from any fighter he has faced thusfar in his career.

The first two rounds will answer one question right off the bat - how much ring rust does Zab have after a year long layoff? If he is sharp right away, Cotto is in trouble right away, if he is rusty, Cotto builds some confidence.

Most people here keep talking about Cotto's body punching. Let me address that - Cotto has landed some body shots on fighters who stay in front of him, but Zab is not going to do that. In this one I see Zab sticking the jab to the body and head of Cotto fast and often.

By sticking Cotto with the jab, Cotto will have a hard time getting within range of a body attack, because Judah has a 5 inch reach advantage. Zab is going to work that jab you can count on that, and you will see Cotto shake his head in frustration when he continues to be fed a steady diet of jabs.

If Zab keeps Cotto in the center of the ring, he has the upper hand all night, and he knows it. Cotto can't land to the body while eating jabs and straight lefts - and don't think for a second Zab doesn't have good power in that jab. He also throws punches from odd angles, and has the speed to get out before Cotto gets his punch off. Cotto may be one of the slowest punchers Zab has ever faced in the ring, while Zab is by far the fastest fighter Miguel has ever seen.

Cotto has good power, but Zabs' power is just as good if not BETTER than Cotto's. Zab has one punch power, if he lands that left on the button, it's good night Miguel right then and there. Everyone talks of the Kostya KO, and thinks Zab has no chin - but I am here to tell you, - Cotto has been getting rocked by fighters with much less power, much less speed, and much less skill than Judah. In my eyes, Cotto will have to show me he can take Zabs' biggest punch - and I doubt it quite frankly.

The speed of Judah will be in play more than people realize, because it's going to be a matter of who can land big first, and that will take skill and speed, there is no doubt in my mind who is going to land first. It will be Judah.

I see Judah as the fighter with everything to lose - so he is going to come in and be at his best, and Judah at his best beats Cotto at his best - no doubt about it.

Bottom line, Cotto eats jabs all night until Judah drops the bombs, the ref steps in and calls a halt to the bout in the 6th Round after a furious unleashing of bombs on Cotto who will go down twice in this one, and the belt goes back to Judah....
