I would like to go to this fight. The Stadium is only 10 mins away.

Anyone else notice on the jumbotron the fight is being billed as a "super welterweight" title fight as opposed to a junior middleweight title fight? I wonder if there is any reason it is being billed as such. I dont remember reading 154 ever being called that before. Maybe if Cotto wins they are hoping "super welterweight" champion sounds more enticing for Pacquiao-May-Mosley?

Also, "Stadium Slugfest"=lame.

Edit: If Cotto looks that short standing next to Yuri Foreman he would look like a midget next to Williams and Martinez. Not that he couldnt potentially win those matchups but boy the size differential would be huge.

154 has always been referred to as super welter.
They "just" started referring to it as jr mid again recently.

They always say Zab Judah was the undisputed "super welter" champ.

they always call it super welterweight/junior middleweight just like super lightweight/junior welterweight or super featherweight/junior lightweight and so on...

foreman is a *****

Super welterweight is the same as junior middle weight..it just means "above welterweight." certain governin bodies uses "super" instead of junior..such as WBC and WBA i think..example..Junior Lightweight is called "super featherweight."
