Cotto v Judah

[fluent2332]

I pick Judah by KO, but the fact he been laid off a year and only has one tune up could effect him. I'm sure Bob Arum wouldn't have it any other way

What was ur take on Cotto last night Addison?

I had the same level of appreciation for his excellent body work the crowd and his hard core supporters did. There were ooohh's and aaahhhh's whenever he would rip in there. I was impressed, it looked very damaging.

That's what they mean by "body puncher destroyer."

He may have over done it a bit... I don't think that much of anything is very wise in a game opponents pick habits and weakness for actual purpose. Miguel has yet to face the creamier of the crop, and just about everybody should know his Modus Operandi at this point.. Not good if you ask me.

Also, he allowed himself to be hit continously. He does a great job of protecting his head and body with the gaurd, and blocking - but he was hit quite alot.. This is all stuff I saw the first time I ever saw the kid in action.

Like I mentioned in an earlier post:

"How many chances will Miguel give Zab to take his head off?"

It still looks like WAY too many

But all in all I didn't see anything that says he's a lesser fighter than before.


They had a fantastic piece with him and Chi Chi Rodriguez on the golf course.

Miguel is a fun guy all should appreciate.

Judah might look good and he can hit and hurt Cotto, but those body shots are going to be a lot to take over twelve rounds. If Judah has faded against lesser punchers, how will he look after fifty or sixty left hooks to his side?

Cotto by close decision

I heard he actually came in with a gut!
Zab i beleive will bring out the best in Miguel or at least i hope coz he will need to bring his A+ Game to win!
Who is Chi Chi Rodriguez and what was the peice about?

We all know of Zab's great footwork. I think that next to conditioning, Zab's movement will be key to his victory.

Cotto's defense was pretty good over the first five or so rounds. He opened up after he became aware that Urkal had little to hurt him and after those headbutts started coming through.

Does anyone honestly think that Cotto will come in with the same gameplan against Judah as he had here? I sure as hell don't.

Night Night Judah.

#1, I don't think Zab is going to let Miguel hit him in the body very much.

He may be a jackass, but he's not mentally disabled..

Cotto gave an interesting impression last night with his body punching.

An impression that could make it seem like that's almost all of what he's got.

And only.

He looked pretty round, but extremely durable.

And Miguels hands got amazingly fast at one point..

He's the one that does the conquistador sword move with his club.

Cotto is simply not quick enough to cut the ring off on Zab, which would be his best bet. If Zab can counterpunch a Mayweather lunge, than he should do well against Cotto's.

But again, it will come down to CONDITIONING!

God, I hope Zab is ready for 12......
