    Great comeback fight for cotto, hopefully his mindset is there and is focused bout the task at hand thru training.yuri is a light puncher so his power doesn't pose a real threat, I don't like his style too much of clinching And grabbing instead of exchanging.in NY , I see Arthur mercante jr raising cotto's glove in the air on a SD , 115-113,116-112, 113-115.. Hopefully it be a great event with juanma in their also vs Gamboa depending what happens next week.

I felt either Cory Spinks or Foreman is the best belt for a title at 154-PW and Martinez maybe too much for him.

        Foreman is a ***ish fighter who has trained and lived in Brooklyn and fought at Madison Square Garden before. Cotto has many PR fans in the NY-NJ area and MSG is perfect near the PR Parada day.
        You should be a promoter. You nailed the dynamics of this fight perfectly.

        I don't know how big Yuri's fan base is though, but it's an interesting fight for sure.

        I think if Cotto can sit down on his punches and catch Yuri he might be ok.
        That backpedalling and jabbing really weakens his game and is ineffective.

        Cotto was always effective coming forward, and if he can take Yuri's best, it should be a pretty damn good fight.

              Fighters follow trends in their career. Cotto never had problems with being outboxed his problem has always been more the physical aspect.

              I do think Foreman is pretty solid boxer and rate him like a B+ boxer with C- power. So i think it will be close fight and i am sure Yuri is hoping that the wear and tear of the Margocheater, Clottey, & Pac fights took something out of Cotto.

                Foreman needs power to stop Cotto, and he seems to lack it.

                    Damn man Cotto just never seizes to amaze me. This guy is a true champ. I hope he gets his corner straightened out and redeems himself. Go Miguelito!
