The shock of the new will be a factor as well; I asked Billy if he had ever taken a fighter against one of his own townsfolk before: “I think this is the first time. Off the top of my head, yes it’s the first time but I am professional and I will do a good job.” [details]

Graham is right about Cotto: the guy needs to move up...I also thought Kostya was "boiling" himself down to make weight for a bit of time now and it showed during the past few weigh-ins; especially the Hatton fight where he couldn't make weight the first time and was rumored to be struggling with losing weight all through training camp.
When you struggle to make weight, it zaps your strength.
When his sparring partners say how "Strong" Kostya is in sparring, it was noted by one sparring partner that it is because Tszyu is at the "right" weight: that of 154lbs when filled and in shape...that would be a full "Welterweight", gaining a 7lbs after the weigh-in
