Cotto v Judah

[chincheckers]

zab is no better on his feet? ok ill give you those guys have good foot movement but zabs is great and much faster.

[The Surgeon]

Here is the breakdown IMO

Zabs faster but Cotto is stronger

Zabs movement is great but Cotto's ability to cut off the ring negates that

Zabs chin is iffy @ best but Cotto's is good (Yeah thats right!)

Zabs a southpaw but Cottos Left hook is the textbook answer to the southpaw eqaution (He can also switch to his Natural stance of southpaw)

Zab has Little heart and mental toughness but Cotto is all heart and is mentally tough as they come

Zabs a great finisher but so is Cotto

Both will have alot of fans there, Cotto slightly more id think but not enough to make much difference


Cotto is the better man im So sure of it! If any1 wants to bet anything from 5K to 20000K let me know!

Ur right but he was just illustaring a point that what boxing scene thinks dont nessacarily mean ****

That's what I'm saying.

I ain't no fan.

Cotto is being badly overrated here, badly, badly..

I'll be pleased if you're right because there's alot of Cotto non believers.

Nothing is more titillating in the world of boxing prediction lore, than "what's his name" being the only writer to pick Holyfield over Tyson.

I love and appreciate the believers.


From here it seems that Miguel is going to have trouble once he faces extreme.

Extreme fire, or extreme athleticism.

It has all been an illusion. Cotto has been put up against total non punchers.

Urkal had 12 KO's in over 40 professional fights. Feather.

Zab has flaws, Cotto may prevail - but eventually, he's going to run into that extreme.

Obviously, I say he will not prevail.


What precisely are you inspired by in Miguel?

Why do you think he'll beat all these fighters?

[psychopath]

No **** it's pretty close. Only eleven votes are separating the two fighters. Those who haven't cast their votes, do it now!

I bet this how close and exciting the fight is gonna be.

I think we have really covered all the bases here and there are many more good posts of substance than you find in most of these threads.

It really now boils down to fight night when all questions are answered. Has anyone changed their opinion on the outcome of this fight since we've started this thread? Why? btw I still pretty much feel the same way. Cotto comes in lighter and brings his A game with improvements shown on D and stamina than he tkes this fight. If Judah comes out fast and furious and can maintain this pace longer than usual his chances increase for victory.

I shouldn't name names but a few people have changed sides.

One that I remember even posted the change.

We have gone through it.. No doubt about that.

It's been great fun.

Well im sticking with Cotto - both have ALOT of talent and strengths but Zab has far too many flaws.
To be honest Addison im more impressed with his early work - more patient, (not quite as exciteing tho) His D was constantly being commented on for how great it was and his chin passed the test against the money shots of Bailey, Sosa and Pinto before becoming drained at the weight, I just like his style! Im still VERY impressed with him but i have to say against some of these guys in this Danger ridden division he'd be better served to go back to his old patient tight D style even boxing off the back foot sumtimes (which he duz well!) but against Floyd and the other movers he's probably right to "Bring it!" I hope its a conciese strategical decision to "Bring it" and not coz he has gone KO crazy, coz he has been a lil bit reckless of late! But not the punching bag sum try to make him out to be!

Great posts in general in this thread, alot of reason being put into every1's decisions!
