Good read, ICE. CC for that. Here in Puerto Rico we're anxiously awaiting what should be a great fight. I'm personally rooting for Cotto, but Quintana is a class act and has a great future in boxing, win or lose.

IMO, the weight gain will be good for Cotto. But he needs to get back to his defensive boxing skills, as well.

DAMN THIS IS GONNA BE A GREAT FIGHT NIGHT!!! :) :) :)
