    Miguel Cotto Says Training Switch Was Worth It

    WBO welterweight champion Miguel Cotto says the decision to move his training camp from Puerto Rico to Tampa, Florida - was well worth it. His results in camp have gone beyond his expectations and he plans to show up in full force on June 13 when he defends the title against Joshua Clottey at New York's Madison Square Garden. [details]

      Yes, but who you got in mind to replace Santiago?

        Sounds great.

        I still think dumping Diaz was a dumb move. Diaz is the best Cut man in the sport!!!!!!!

          There isnt much to Clottey.
          He covers up. He tries to land the looping left hook and he tries to land the right hand with out jabbing.
          Wash, rinse, repeat. It will be a battle of left hooks and who can land better shots to the body. Both fighters will be working that double left hook. Cotto will try to triple his and try to gain the advantage. Cotto will also stun Clottey with his speed. Cotto will catch Clottey dead center with accurate punching. Look for Cotto to get stronger as the fight gets close to the final round. Cotto on points and possibly a UD.

              What makes you think Clottey will beat Cotto?

                  I'd actually be surprised if he ever hurts Clottey... man Clottey is like Mosely in a sense of durability..but Clottey comes forward with it..

                    Mosley was coming foward in the first half of the fight with Cotto and had to change his strategy because his punches did nothing to cotto and Mosley hits a lot harder than Clottey + Mosley is a better boxer than Clottey.

                    Cotto will UD Clottey
