I picked Manny to dominate Miguel last year. Not simply because Manny's a better boxer (he is), but because since the Margarito fight I really felt like Cotto's confidence was just *gone*, and that would have a really negative effect on his performance.
Even against an inferior opponent like Jennings, I remember it taking Cotto a lot longer than it should have to move in and stop him.
Like he was afraid Jennings might have some trick up his sleeve.
A lot of people on here have claimed he's shot. I disagree with that, because I don't think his problems are as much physical as they are mental. Look what those back-to-back losses did to Zab Judah, who i make fun of a lot, but used to be a really good, competitive fighter.
Cotto's only 30, and the Margarito fight is pretty far off in the mirror. Can Manny turn him around?
