    Yes tre he is fighting then in my homecity too, theres enough time tho as long he doesn't get cut or break a hand or something, he'll certainly be in shape for it

      see thats what throws me..I have a book from where I said I was a trainer (dont ask) and it's called "Ringside and Training Principles" and it clearly states that if a fighter loses his fight by ko or tko he has to wait for atleast 6 mo's to fight again. If the fight is won by dec. on either side, they are supposed to base it on how many rd's that fighter fought in his last fight..and add mo's to the wait according to the amount of rd's and how rough the fight was. Yet, I see the same guys fighting within mo's after brutal wars! Somebody is breaking regulations somewhere.

          evidently. I'm going to grab my book in a min and check..get refamiliar with it. Very cool book with all kinds of info and input from Manny steward, Teddy Atlas, Floyd Mayweather,Sr on how they train their guys, etc. I definately recommend it to anyone thats curious about boxing outside the ring as well as in..it covers everything!!

            I think both Cotto fights would be good and he will come out on top (vs Corley by TKO and vs Junior Witter UD or late TKO).

                I hate to admit it but its true, Witters a far better fighter now. That doesnt mean i like him though, he's still as much of a ****head as he was then

                    If Witter does prove me wrong i'll be the first to admit it, problems is he's running out of time and aint getting any closer to proving **** to me. he's proved he can beat a tough bloke with no boxing skill(Ndou) but can he really step up.

                      Hopefully within the next couple of fights (excluding this weekend) we'll find out.
                      Like you've said before we know he's too good for the euro level but is he truly world class, he needs to be fighting men that are ranked higher than him even if he's not getting a shot at one of the champions
