    He deserves another fight on HBO, maybe he should fight Vanes even though that fight would be horrible. Angulo vs Foreman might be interesting if Angulo wins his next fight.

      yes and no. cotto was pretty much dominating that fight although foreman did land a few nice punches every now and then. the knee injury was unfortunate but im not sure foreman could stop or catch up with cotto on the scorecards. all in all it was a great fight. yuri showed a ridiculous amount or heart and great boxing abilty and cotto looked great with his semi reformed style and he is back! im am now big fans of them both.

          ESPN had Foreman winning the 2nd, 4th, and 6th rounds, which would have made the fight even before the injury happened in the 7th(and it sounds bad enough that Foreman had no chance in winning after such an injury).

          but, of course, sometimes its not good to judge a fight based on reading one description.

          Do yall think Foreman is entitled to a rematch? and is it possible he came into this fight on a prior injury to begin with, which is why his knee or ankle or whatever gave out?
          NO he didn't fight his fight, irregardless of the injury.

            He fough his fight, it just wasn't enough to make Cotto back down. But this is his style and he employed it to his fullest until the injury.

              No, even without the leg injury, Cotto would have jab the **** out of him and POW! Left hook to the body again.

                listen dude i'm a cotto hater usually and call him 'quitto' in most threads. but he DOMINATED foreman he lost 1 round which was i think 4th where foreman suddenly came out of his ***** ass running mode and landed some hard shots. cotto annihilated him and it wasn't his "leg" that went, it was the fact that foreman was so tired from running from cotto all night and eating hard shots that he had no more stamina to stand up straight so he fell and hurt his leg then he was even easier prey for cotto who destroyed him with a classic body shot

                    If he earns it by beating another contender, surely he does. I don't think an immediate rematch is nesessary but if he earns another and has recovered from his injury, I'd like to see him get another chance.

                      If that is the case then whoever scores for ESPN is ******ed. Foreman won 1 round and it was close. Cotto won going away and would have likely stopped Foreman even without the injury.
