boxrec has the fight listed! but although jennings is slick, I cant see him hurting Cotto. He isnt no Margarito and I can see Cotto stop him early to mid rounds.

Think it was POB who did a thread sometime back...
In that thread I said Cotto needed to fight anyone of these guys;
Soto-Karass, Hlatswayo, Sasaki (really far fetched) or Lujan.
In that same thread I said more then anything Cotto needs a confidence booster. He needs to be faced with the perfect opponent that can last with him and he can get his confidence back with.
I don't think he needs a Berto fight as a comeback fight.

Michael Jennings ain't no pushover i've seen quite a few of his fights. And he moves well and he can sustain that movement for 12 rounds, his stamina has always been very good.
He has good boxing skills and he can take a punch well, he obviously ain't in Miguel Cotto's league. But don't expect an easy fight here folks, Michael Jennings is a quality fighter.
Everything I've heard was Berto (most unlikely I assume) Cintron or Soto-Karrass. Don't know a whole lot about this guy.

Micheal Jennings is a lovely man great bloke met him numerous times, but he is no way near Cottos league and i see this as a beatdown for about 4/5 rounds then Cotto stopping him, Jennings is a game fighter and will fight to the end, but Jennings biggest and toughest opponent was either Young Mutley or Bradley PryceExactly not exactly great warm up fights for a guy like Cotto, good look to Micheal i hope he is paid well but he has fought absolutley nowhere near this level, hes probably not even the best fighter in Britain at 147 i think Kell Brook would beat him possibly Craig Watson.
At least Jennings is getting his shot, I seem him as no less an underog than Lloyd Honeyghan was against Don Curry.
Remember the good old days, we miss you Marco!

Cotto is not going to fight anyone dangerous in his next fight.
He's going to get a big payday against the Cotto-Mosley winner, so why risk blowing that chance?

I'd never seen Michael Jennings before and the first thing I thought of was a guy I went to school with by the same name. I realized they couldn't be the same because this kid was probably 147 pounds at least in the 5th grade (10-11 years old).
Oops

If Cotto needs to have some confidence back than Jennings seem to be the right guy. Saw Jenning's resume and he seems like any other guy that Cotto has faced in the past (journeyman, not a big puncher, etc.).
