    It's obvious what is going on here.

    Foreman is a known chump - he's really no match for Cotto. If Steward can hone Cotto's skills so he's as good as he was earlier in his career (crisp jab, solid defense etc..) and maybe teach him how to throw more than a 2 punch combo (Cotto is terrible at finishing). He opened Pacquiao up a few times then stopped throwing punches, whereas when Pacquiao got an opening, he threw punches until he couldn't anymore.

    Cotto will beat Yuri and take his belt, then Arum will arrange a rematch with Pacquiao and Cotto and basically spoon feed his baby with another title in another weight class.

    Yuri really has no chance at all - not even a punchers chance.

      Jermaine Taylor is ur #2? Man, not only he is already retired, he got knocked out the last 4 fights?

            I want Cotto to win but I dont see it.

            Hes had alot taken out of him. Foremans craft style and boxing ability and size will give him nightmares especially considering how short Cotto is.

              Sigh I don't know who will win this fight. Too many unknowns make this fight hard for me to call.

              Will Cotto be effective at 154 against a big Jr. MW?

              How much does Cotto have left after taking so much damage in his career?

              Will Emmanuel Steward be able to provide a renaissance of sorts for Cotto at this stage of his career?

              Prime versus prime Cotto beats Foreman handily. As for now I genuinely don't know because of the aforementioned.

              Alot of questions will be answered come June 5th.

              Hopefully Cotto wins in a spectacular fashion and looks great. We'll see...

                I like the way that you never answered my question.

                    A one-sided win for Cotto like Paulie was for Khan.

                      If Pac can rematch Cotto with no beef then Paul and Floyd can fight him.
