Comments Thread For: Miguel Cotto-Daniel Geale: Pre-Fight Report Card

[Mike D]

Bold pick by Rold.

I could see this a lot like how Algieri/Khan unfolded -- a higher profile guy in line for a potential big fight in his next fight, but struggles to look good...but still comes away with a tough win.

I got Cotto but it wouldn't surprise me if it ends up being hard fought.

Cotto was a machine and I loved him up unil he fought Margarito and got pummellled.

Post Margarito, he changed, he went from zero tattoos to a full body of tattoos. Now he is just business and is cashing out - hence why he fought the weakest 154lb-er (also had a dodgy knee remember) and got Martinez to fight him at 160lbs. Whilst I credit his business acumen in making the boxing fans think he is still a top champion, I'd much rather have seen him retire a lot earlier.

I'm expecting Cotto to win this on points - it may be controversial, but once again, his fights for the last 5 years or so have just been business and him cashing out on his status and the fact that Puerto Rico hasn't had a new star pop up since.

Cotto is going to break geale down body shots to slow him down and take away the power geale is thinking like Martinez I'm bigger I'm just going to eat his punches we will see tonight

Geale an A in intagibles?

Yes. Outside GGG, no one has had an easy time with him and going overseas to convince the judges he won twice in Germany in title fights showed a lot.

Im still surprised so many people are picking geale to win... but are the same ones complaining and crying about the weight.

Just like the Martinez fight. Ya pick him to win and then cry afterwards.

To be fair, we have being crying about the catchweight since we found out.

Im hoping that geale will win but cotto is obviously is the favorite.

If geale isnt too effected by the cw then I think cotto will be in for a long night.

So who did you pick to win?

If ya say Geale is "weight drained" then just pick Cotto to win.

But then there are some posters who say "zombie geale"!!! and then pick him to win anyway

Bravo, Cliff Rold. Bravo!
