Cotto is saved by his attacks to the body...he's good at that and never backs away from it
If Julio went to the body then we wouldn't be talking about Quintana. His turn away style defense exposes his ribs and Cotto may as well break them. Ask Virgil hill what happened when Roy did it to him

I am happy that a fight is being made based on paper (and not the green stuff). By the way, Quintana is the first fighter Cotto could probably lose to. The others Cotto fought were fighters he shouldn't lose to, if you know what I mean. By the way, Julio, as green as he was, was better than any fighter Cotto ever fought, though Cotto's resume is peppered with many well-known names. Julio would have beaten all the fighters Cotto beat, while we are at it. Basically, don't sleep on Quintana, especially if you haven't seen him fight. Watch the Julio fight and watch Quintana's style. Few fight like him!! Watch it, you'll see he will be a player in the division!!
Julio isn't better then Corley he just hits harder. Julio probably is a harder puncher then anyone Cotto has faced, but it doesn't make him better then everyone on Cotto's resume.

I'm not sleeping on Quintana, he looked good against Julio but in looking good it was more what Julio didn't do. AS Quintana was open ALL DAY for body shots.
