How Much Fold Does Miguel Cotto Have In Him?

[Bhopreign]

This seems to be the number one question since the Margarito loss since this is Cotto's first real test since that fight. Jennings couldnt provide any answers and people seem to think Clottey might. I myself think the Marg fight was a one time thing and Cotto isnt a quitter and was proobably being hit by bricks, Malignaggi recently wondered how much fold Cotto had in him, if what Marg showed maybe what he really is. How much fold does Cotto have in him? Is this Aceliono Freitas standing right before us and we just dont know it yet?

Clottey isn't a presure fighter the way Margarito is.

Clottey will stand there and box with you more than walk you down and pressure you.

Margarito is a non-stop come forward take 2 to give 5 style fighter... Clottey is a defensive first counter puncher, that will pressure, but not to the extent that Margarito will.

I think it was that extreme style of pressure that Cotto couldn't seem to take, on top of the fact that everything Cotto threw at Marg seemed to do absolutely nothing, which can also have an effect psychologically.

This fight will go the distance, and it will be close.

Not sure.........

I think Clottey will lose on Cotto's punches being counted even though they are mostly blocked, because Clottey wont be throwing enough. Even those early rounds against Margarito in which I thought he won, the judges gave to Marg. It will be like a Dawson/Johnson fight in which even though Chad is getting blocked alot, he will get credit on punch output.

This is an extremely likely scenario... Clottey needs to let his hands go more than he is used too.

The only way CLottey wins if he outclasses him or drops him here and there. It's in New York, a day before the PR parade, the house will be 95 percent pro Cotto, and judges are usually persuaded by the roar of the crowd case and point Oscar De La Hoya vs Ike Quartey.

I'm hoping Clottey can silence the crowd like when Hopkins whooped Tito's ass. Lol you wouldn't believe it some Ricans sitting next to me were in tears.

The titoites were pretty upset at the Garden last year as well..
