Jennings v Cotto......Are you for Real??!!

[ono]

As i have said many times Michael Jennings is no joke, he will make Miguel Cotto look bad for the first few rounds. Because he has good footwork.

But i think the body punching from Miguel Cotto will be too much. And he will wear down Michael Jennings and stop him in the 8th round, but i don't think Michael Jennings will be embarrassed in this fight by any means.

Most of the people saying this fight is a joke and ETC, haven't even seen Michael Jennings fight. I have because quite alot of his fights have been shown on ITV over here, and im telling you now. For a comeback fight its a decent test for Miguel Cotto. This is nothing like Gary Lockett vs Kelly Pavlik.

I think it is.

Somewhere in between Lockett-Pavlik and Cotto-Gomez.

I agree Jennings might get into the latter rounds but only if he goes into survival mode. Which i think he will do after taking a few heavy shots.

Hope i'm wrong.

What i don't get is how everyone is saying this is a very legitimate comeback fight yet Hatton - Lazcano wasn't.

Granted it was on ppv but still surely the gripe was with the level of opposition?

Hows Jennings any better than Lazcano?

Find a quote from me where I criticized Hatton for taking the Lazcano fight. Everybody gets a layup once in a while it's only a problem when you take 4 crap fights for every one legit one. I never blamed Hatton for fighting Lazcano.

Cotto been in more fights with good to excellent quality opponents than anybody fighting actively right now other than Pac or Oscar. Going back 5 years, he's only been in soft a couple of times (Gomez, Branko, Abdulev). Pretty much all the rest were solid choices for those points in his career.
