Yes Sunday night at 03:00 am on SKY Sports 2 HD I think, and HBO in the USA.

Cotto has got this. Delvin is a nice guy and a good fighter but Cotto is a couple of levels above him. He's slipped a little but I expect Cotto to stop him late.

I hate to say it but Rodriquez really oozes that feel of "just happy to be here" in the interviews I've seen. Could be wrong but feels that way. Sure he'll give it 100% but you can sail a boat through the class gap between them. Cotto won't have to look for him and that jab should have Delvin waving high in the wind. Really looking forward to Crawford-Klimov, very solid style clash and Crawford has the goods..I believe.

Weigh ins

Miguel Cotto 153.2 lbs
Delvin Rodriguez 154.0 lbs

The ring card girls get a ten. They look like they've got arses on them too.

Hopefully Rodriguez does better than that non-effort he gave against Trout. But I doubt it

Didn't realize they were doing replay of The Walking Dead episode that just past for a heavyweight title fight

Drinking game here, take a shot at every clinch...and GO!!

On paper he gets brutalized, but I think if he starts fast he can damage Cotto with that uppercut. Damage, not beat ha!

Oh yes. The fight's not bad either. Nearly as good as the Klitschko fight earlier.

I just cant help but like guys like Nguyen. Wind um up and turn um loose.

If Nguyen had any pop this would have been over long ago.
