    Ya know, Ricardo Torres kept some power punching pressure on Cotto and even after that wild shoot out, he couldn't put Cotto away. So it's hard to believe Paulie talking about breaking him down. Though...I still style wise am picking Paulie to dance away with a decision. Look at Cory Spinks. The man is featherfisted and even he was able to take a decision out of the wild intimidating Mayorga. I'm sure Paulie thinks of all those boxers beating punchers matchups and it's his motivation or inspiration. Though he also talks like Cotto is a complete idiot when it comes to just throwing power punches. If Cotto can keep landing his left hook he will slow down Paulie which will take away Paulie's main advantage which is the speed. It's a hard pick for me and even though I'm going against Cotto on this one, I won't be blown away of if he wins of course. I just see upset written all over this one.
    People!!!! Please remember Cotto is not just a wild bomber he is a boxer first, He has an extensive winning amature career, and he's a natural lefty, turned into a conventional fighter. Cotto is Going to smash malinaggi. Cotto is a hell of a boxer. Just remember where you heard decision or knockout cotto will be the victor!!!!

          He USED to be a boxer first, but after the Corley fight he has started to slug more. Before the Corley fight, I legitmately thought he was the real deal. He had excellent defense (although he was a sucker to the straight right hand) and wonderful patience that created counter punching opportunities. But after his shaky fight with Corley, I have started to see his beautiful boxing technique detiorate similarly to the way Tyson's did (Although not nearly as extreme).

          In recent fights, he has been tagged with very big punches because he stands in and trades more frequently, relying less on his boxing technique. Before the Corley fight, I wouldve given Malignaggi a snowballs chance in hell, but now that Cotto's techique has become sloppier either man can pull out the W.
