cotto will shock me if he doesn't get hit with a clean uppercut or overhand right and he KTFO foreman under 5 rounds.

I don't think you can call Cotto fast.His assets are power and technique, he's a very technical sound fighter.Yuri has nothing on Cotto except height and reach, but Cotto will annihilate those advantages.He's too experienced for Yuri.In the end it will be a tough fight for Cotto, especially in the early rounds, but he will prevail.I would love to see him next against Angulo.That fight has "fireworks" written all over it.Probably Angulo will KO Cotto in the late rounds at this stage of his career.

This event should be very much live,I'll be there for sure.



I beleive Cotto will beat yuri on the inside en route to a 7 round ko victory.A rebirth could be in place ppl.

I really dont see how this is going to be ALL that difficult... Yuri didnt look impressive against Santos, and I'm pretty sure Cotto would have killed Santos....but what do i know.

I dont know about that.Have you forgotten he got soundly OUTBOXED by cintron?



Cintron? Cintron? The lanky un-technical Cintron???


It'll be an epic repeat on how cotto purely outboxed Margairto the 1st 6 rounds.Only to fustrate angulo all through 12.

Yuri's last fight was such a disappointment, this guy is feather fisted and will be easy to hit. I will be shocked if Cotto doesn't knock him out in under 5 rounds.

WAR COTTO!!

I'm probably in the minority, but I don't think that Steward will be a good fit with Cotto. Most of Manny's best work was with tall fights with dominating jabs (Hearns, McCallum, Lewis, Klitschko, etc.).

Even though Angulo's last fight was a KO, he made LOTS of mistakes. His ass was getting handed to him in the early rounds. I'm confident Cotto will TKO Angulo (bum) even at this stage of his career.

cotto got this fight w/ no problem. cotto wins easy

[AKATheMack]

I like Cotto and hopes he wins this one and if Cotto does then we can definitely throughout all the excuses that Cotto was damaged goods after the Margarito fight..

and if Cotto looses then we all know he's obviously a damaged fighter..

I dont think he's damaged he just has flaws that you can expose if you're good enough, but if he loses to Yuri I'd have to agree hes lost more than I admit.
