Cotto-Bailey looking solid!

[mic573]

Is he a mover or does he tend to stand in front of his guy? Is he an accurate puncher? Can he take a punch?

I haven't seen any of Bailey but from what I've read it'll be a quick KO for Cotto. He will eat you up working upstairs and down if you sit in front of him.

He comes to try and knock you out but he doesn't move his hands enough. He is one of those punchers who waits for a big shot and will stand in front of his opponent. He's not a mover at all. As far as his chin I have never seen him stopped outside of the Hurtado fight which ended on a bodyshot. This should be an easy fight for Cotto though.

I don't see him standing up very long then. Cotto deals out a lot of punishment in a short period of time. Cotto KO inside of 6.

i saw him fight live in PARIS.

he is strong , and has a HUGE right hand . plus he fought a war against a colombian guy ,i saw it on tv , he can take a punch.

he is not fast , not a defensive genius , but his power is world class , he is a real test for cotto , cant wait to see it.

He is only a test for Cotto's chin because Cotto is a natural southpaw turned conventional and a great counter-puncher. Bailey, although the bigger guy, will have to endure much punishment to get close enough to connect his right hand. He will probably be drained from the weight loss, too, since he's been fighting at Welter for a while now.

Bailey is garbage. His power got highly overrated, he looked great knocking out second rate bums then when he stepped up his power went away and he'd get his ass kicked.

Easy fight for Cotto

this fight shouldn't be made!!

I tell you what Randall Bailey, jesus. People complain that Hatton fights washed up fighters but rave about Cotto. Bailey couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag these days!
