Paulie's a class act. He could present some trouble for Cotto with his speed and mobility, but Cotto's experience is really the key.
It's a big step up for Paulie, Cotto's a beast.
Paulie is gonna have to fight a near flawless fight in order to beat Miguel. Hes gotta use his speed, keep his hands up, stay off the ropes, and throw in combinations.
I've only seen the last 5 cotto fights, but to me he looks like 140lbs Jeff "left his belt in Wales" Lacy. A slow, ponderous power puncher who is tailor made for a fast puncher with hand and foot speed.
Corley had Cotto out on his feet, so his chin is also questionable. One thing you can't argue with Cotto is his record, he's fought and beaten some great guys to say he's still had less than 30 fights, but I predict Paulie to give him some trouble.
Cotto should grind him down if it goes past six or seven, but an upset maybe on the cards.
Sorry to change the subject for a second but I love that picture of Oscar and Mayorga, tells a story. Wonder whats being said.
Not sure what's being said, I just loved the photo. Oscar's pointing at him like he's saying "You better watch out" and Mayorga's got that look on his face like "I've got this title and I'm crazy".
