    It's great to see such support for both of fighters. Almost neck and neck.

    I'm rooting for Cotto to win.

    Though I have a theory, and feel free to flame me...

    When the B-Hop/Winky bout came up, I remember I put on Fight Night: Round 2 and let the CPUs duke it out on hard difficulty. I was having fun with friends and joking around that judging by the outcome of the bout, that's what would happen in the fight later that day. Turns out in the game Winky ended up winning by KO in 5. I knew that it wasn't possible, Winky's not known for knockouts. I tried it again and got more or less the same result: Winky by KO in a later round. Outcome of real fight: Hopkins by UD

    I thought, "Hey, that was funny. Maybe what happens in the game, is completely opposite of what'll happen in the real fight."

    FNR2 test result: Cotto KOs Mosley in 5.
    Prediction: Mosley comes back from a knockdown and wins by Decision, though unsure whether it's UD or SD.

    I also tried it on Mayweather/Hatton (even though in the game they're two different weight classes).

    FNR2 result: Hatton KOs Mayweather in 7
    Prediction: Another bout Mayweather wins on points.

      I agree that Mosley wins but I can't see a knockdown for Shane.

            YAR.

            I can't see Shane getting knocked down, groupie.

            I see Cotto getting knocked out.

              Bert Randolph said the same thing about this fight. Sugar, although believed to the favorite, isn't the favored one. As Addison recently discovered, Shane seems to be the underdog. With that said, some time ago Bert stated that he believes that Shane can pull off the upset. He also added that he'd be very surprised if he saw Shane get knocked out.

              And this is coming from an old fogey that has seen a plethora of boxing matches for decades. He isn't always right, but he usually knows what he's talking about.

              Before the first Leonard/Hearns bout, Bert predicted that Leonard would win by split decision...well, he was right on the fact that Leonard would win...surprisingly, it came in a way that I don't think anyone expected.

              I haven't been so hyped up for a fight (been a boxing fan for about 2 years now)!

                  1 cheater outside the ring vs 1 cheater inside the ring. this all comes down to who has trained to cheat the hardest.

                      Quintana and Judah are softees. Paulie Malignaggi was able to go 12 with Cotto, no way Mosley goes down in this fight....only way Cotto wins is by UD, which I just don't see Mosley just becoming a punching bag to the methodical punching Cotto.
