Cotto Ready For War, Gomez Vows Upset

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

WBA welterweight champion Miguel Cotto is right on schedule as he tipped the scales at 151-pounds after his final day of training at his camp in Puerto Rico. Cotto leaves for New York on Sunday. Cotto will defend his title against Contender star Alfonso Gomez on April 12 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. [details]

i don't see this being a war but it will be a good boxing match. Gomez better forget about the weak Cotto chin myth and attack the body which nobody ever does against Cotto. If he can do good work downstairs early he as a chance but I doubt Cotto is havin any of that.

Gomez is capable of war, but he's always been best off surprising opponents that didn't see him coming. We'll have to see what Gomez can muster under the hot lights with Cotto spotting him from over 3000 miles.

Gomez is talking a lot of ****, but let's be real. It is what it is. Cotto will win.

i don't think gomez is talking ****, i think he has what it takes to win. after all it's a fight and anything can happen. only way to see is on fightnight. i hope it's a war

If Cotto losses I'm gonna be very very surprised. I might be in so much shock that I'll have to take a break from boxing and watching professional knitting. The shock to the system will just be so severe that I would have to stop watching contact sports for a week.

I don't know, but I get the feeling that Gomez is not talking **** and really is going in to Win. I like Cotto and I hope for his sake he comes prepared to really fight. I know me, (Like Gomez) when people count me out and think I have no chance, is when I get focused like crazy and prove them wrong. Of course this is a fight and we all know cotto is better than Gomez, but don't count him out at all. I think Cotto will win, but I'm not counting Gomez out at all. He has just as much chance as Cotto. When your back is against the wall, people tend to come out of their shell and do things that they didn't think they could do before and I feel Gomez is going to perform very well on the 12th

I will never never forget Tyson Vs Buster that is why everone has a shot. Gomez needs some confidence or it will be bloody murder.
