This is my FIRST EVER boxing card. Can you believe that?

Big PPV fight at Madison Square Garden... not a bad way to start I guess. There will be plenty of cold beverages being consumed for sure.

(By the way, I originally planned on getting tix to Gatti-Ward I, but my college graduation was the next morning, so I decided not to get tix. BIG mistake.)

CC for graduating bro!

Cool.
OK... some quick pointers DON'T go straight to your seat when you get there buy some beers THEN go look for your seat cause guess whats the 1st thing you say once you've found your seats?
Let's go get some beer. ;D
So your better off getting it in advanced.
Also if your not ringside and you wan't to get in to ringside just scope around and see how security works whos guarding what areas and which security looks most vulnerable. Your best bet to get past through to ringside is minutes after the main event ;) but you gotta be slick and fast with camera ready to snap pictures....

This fight is now only two weeks away, cannot wait. I'm really shocked how many people are saying Judah is gonna win this, losing to Mayweather is one thing, but Carlos Baldomir is another.

Imo this will be awesome fight this has fight of the year written all over it or a pretty damn awesome fight anyway its been while since i've been excited about a fight is anyone else excited as much as me ??

Everyone on the DRBR is in denial, IWO.

Without doubt, this going to be a great fight.

First of all...Judah has a shot at pulling an upset.

Second...HBO just goes all out with these "Countdown to's..."

Love the track, love the run downs, all of it...my only problem is that Countdown = PPV.

WTF?!?!?!

With Tito fights, I used to start hyperventilating by mid-week. For Cotto-Judah it may be till Thursday or Friday before that starts.

;D

I think everyone is pump up for this fight. Good fights this year keep them coming

i'm very excited about this fight. this fight can go either way and there's nice little story line to go with the fight.

i'm mad it's on PPV though.

I'm incredibly excited about this fight, I can't wait. I only wish I could see it live, but Wacko's DRBR is good enough for me - I find myself looking forward to those.

LOL I know is old but still funny

fast forward if you want to 2:50 and hear the Zab joke

I am getting excited also. As for Judah. When he went after the ref. I lost all respect for him. Like Mayweather said, he should have been going at Tsyzu like that instead of at the ref.

i am biased on this one cuz we all know mi novio PUYA es BORIQUA :-* TE AMO MI VIDA!

Cotto is an exciting fighter to watch. Again, I used the term "fighter". Judah is Aliesque in his behavior but has speed good boxing skills. I just hope this will not look like Barrera Juarez 2.

i wasn't too excited till watching the countdown. this is judah's last chance. he loses his career is basically over. this is good for cotto because it will be the first big name on his record if he wins. i don't know who will win to be honest but i am wanting cotto to ko/tko judah.

by going to PPV, boxing is going to lose more than it would have ever gained had they showed the fight on HBO, SHOWTIME or even a stab at National TV!!! You want people to get interested in boxing again but yet they constantly alienate the people most likely to follow the sport....You know they say people associated with boxing are not the brightest bulbs in the bunch but why do they give people these reasons to justify their opinions? Keep going down this path and eventually boxing will be banned...not because it's a dangerous sport...btw soccer has a higher injury to participant ratio....but because people won't care......

I think Judahs and Cottos style will blend real well.

PRESSER QUICK QUOTES by Matt Richardson
"Outside of the Latino Community, nobody knows who Miguel Cotto is," claimed Judah. "All I'm doing Saturday is going back to get back what is mine. I'm happy to be home." The champion Cotto responded, "The trash talk is almost finished. I don't care if you don't know Miguel Cotto. You'll know Miguel Cotto on Saturday. I hope you're coming to fight to support your words. I'm here to fight." Promoter Bob Arum promised "truly a magical, magical night," and added that less than thousand tickets were remaining as of Wednesday morning and it will be the first sellout for boxing at The Garden since 2001.

Dammit why can't be saturday already

No kidding. Can't wait for this one. I'm going to be out the night of the fight, now I just need to find someone who will be home the night of the fight or something. If I don't figure something out, I think I'm going without the results til Sunday :-X

Oh yeah....

GO COTTO!

sounds like cotto dont want zab to box his way to a win.. he knows if it goes to points. and zab comes in to the fight like the spinks fight. he will lose

That's the best man...
Hold on to your seat.

It's my friends B-Day that day soooo it's always nice to hit a party up and then party the rest of the night. :)

Promoter Bob Arum promised "truly a magical, magical night,"

What? Are there going to be little fairy's flying around or something.. What a weird thing to say about a fight.

Even without all the magic i'm really looking forward to it as well.

Topic Merged.

CC#214 Puya thanks for the post. ;)

no probleme man CC back

Zab's best weapon in this fight would be his jab and his uppercuts but he hasn't used either in a while consistantly.

lemme take this, his jabs have pop, his uprecuts are HARD and carry knockout power, and the way cotto fights he heavy on the front foot so the jab and and uprecut are perfect punches

my thinking is that Judah will win. I know the favorite is Cotto, but Judah in my mind is more proven. I hate to say it I think he stops Cotto.

Judah looks the bigger man, i suppose coem fight night Cotto would have hydrated and maybe 12-15lbs overnight, but im impressed with Judah looks great in a non gay way ;D

;D
