    Naw, not heartbroken, i don't expect Cotto to win, but I'm proud and happy for the opportunity he has. Very nice payday. If by some slim chance he pulls the upset, i can't wait to see this forum...lol.

    I have pretty much kept quiet about it all, and will do so after the fight. This is one fight i don't see the sense to get into debates with people. With that said...all the best to you Miguel. Give him hell!

      Richardson saved Cotto a round before he opens up. Cotto will now be cut in the 5th instead of the 4th. This is a legit issue though.

        Odds? We are not casinos. Straight up.

        Are you not confident that Cotto can beat a coward?

            Funny, you weren't thanking him when he caught Trinidad.

                Plastic thumbs are indeed dangerous. But being the pro that Floyd is, I expect him to be understanding & abide.

                    Sure, how could it not help? Floyd has shown that the south paw stance gives him more trouble than the ortho and it keeps you away from Floyd's straight right.

                    Cotto probably has a very strong straight left since that's his dominate hand. He should switch it up at times though (definitely not stay southpaw for too long, only here and there)...move to his right while jabbing and then throw the straight left, Floyd shoulder rolls it and Cotto can pound Floyd's left oblique as Floyd is blocking the straight left.

                    Cotto needs to make solid contact to Floyd's mid-section so that hopefully, Floyd's hands drop a little as the fight progresses.....I think Cotto could drop Floyd with a solid left hook or a straight right but he needs to make Floyd weary of the body punches.
                    How could it not help? Because Cotto is not a natural southpaw, there would be a delay in everything he does and he would inevitably leave himself open.

                    Also you're incorrect in assuming that he would have a strong left under the southpaw stance as punch power depends or more than just your hands. If I'm to throw a right hook under a southpaw stance it is weaker than my left hook under than orthodox stance despite me being right handed as under the southpaw stance I have difficulty setting my body right.
