    Roach definitely put some life back into Cotto's career. I thought he was done after Trout, too small to have any impact above 147. He still wasn't anything great with Freddie but he looked far more comfortable and confident. Pedro Diaz prepared him well for Floyd but he probably wasn't the right fit for Cotto.
    Agreed. Cotto gave Mayweather a nice run for his money. But it appeared Diaz tinkered too much with Miguel’s natural style for the Trout fight. He had Cotto “boxing” a little more than usual. It cost both of them. I believe Pedro was fired after that fight.

    As to the TS’s question, I certainly didn’t pick Trout, but I wasn’t shocked when he won. I would guess about 30% or more people around here picked Austin for the upset.

      B Suth the chosen one
