Does Paul have a reql chance??

Cotto's beatable, but this just seems like too much of a jump up in class for Paulie. I only saw him fight once against a nobody, and I imagine most of his other opponents were as well. Someone from his team should've convinced him not to take this fight.

Paulie UD,I wouldn't bet 1 mill (I know, not much) on him if I didn't think he stood a chance.

I always thought Cotto could be easly beat by a good fast boxer. I thought that Cotto is just a power puncher with a questionable chin. And Paul is extremly fast. whats your opinions

His only chance is to outbox Cotto and run so he doesn't get caught...Cotto is very good at cutting the ring, so I find it very difficult for Pauly to be able to do it for 12 rounds. Possible, but not likely.

Kid got a real shot, the big question is howis Paulies chin cause as the Cotto fan said he gonna get caught sooner or later, but if he can take shots well, I see him bee stinging Cotto all night with the occasional scarey moments when Cotto has him in da corners

The only chance he has is to box. But box while it will last. Cotto will eventually cut the ring and tag his face and win the fight.

sure why not. But he's going to have to box a perfect fight and make cotto respect him. He might have to brawl at first so he cna get some respect and then frustrate cotto by moving.

BUT cottos is one of the best at closing off the distance so I doubt paulie will win

People say Calzaghe had to hit and move, put on a boxing clinic to defeat Lacy, but from what I saw he was standing toe to toe with Lacy, and trading for half of the fight, Paulie doesn't have the power to do that, but I will pick the boxer over the puncher 9 times out of 10.

Paulie dosn't have the power to make Cotto respect him. Cotto's body attack stops the running in about 3 rounds.

But as you know that doesn't always work...Ask Morales. Also Joe had more ring and title fights experience over Lacy just like Cotto has over Pauli.
