Well, it aint bad for FNF, at least I'll see this Urango guy....I was told that he beat Cotto in the amateurs.

Urango is one of my favorite fightters and i really hope he wins this title. He fights kind of like Mike Tyson but hes a southpaw. He is a monster of a 140 pounder. He has decent defense and good head movement, he gets hit a lot thought but never count him out. When he KO'd Eason (who will be in the new season of the Contender in July) he was losing the 7th round decisively and then BAM he landed a right hook and ended it, he was winning the fight he was just having a terrible round. He has showed a pretty good chin so far and excellent power.

As for Ben Rabah, i have only heard stories. I hear he is a good boxer but like someone else said not that exciting.

Even though i never seen Rabah fight im going with my boy Urango by knockout.

Is it true that he beat Cotto in the amateurs?

That would be a really good fight. Urango says he has no trouble making 140 (despute being an absolute monster), he says it is natural for him. But he is a big man and will probably end up at 147. I think Cotto will be great at 147. I love Urango he is one of my favorites but i cant vote against Cotto. Urango has the power to turn things around in fights but i think Cotto would win.

Id rather see Urango take over 140. I dont want to see 2 of my favorite fighters fight lol.
