Might as well start, WHO YA GOT: COTTO OR PAULIE?

[Wacko3205]

I will go on record to say that if this fight goes the distance, there's no way Cotto is winning a decision. If Paulie was able to last 12 rounds with Cotto and knowing Paulie's great work rate, Paulie's gonna get the decision. BUT, that is a big a** IF.

Cotto has got the power, but Paulie really is a slick defensive and quick fighter. Yall will see that he's not the bum most people claim he is. I've got Paulie by split decision.

Cotto by KO.

Tarver by SD.

No sir, I've got Tarver KOing Hopkins in the middle rounds. I think that this fight really isn't that hard to pick, the only wild card is Tarver's stamina. If he gasses out in the later rounds like he did with RJJ, he's in big trouble. In fact, I'm sure Hopkins is planning on making in a long night and then turning it up at the end. Unfortunately, Tarver is gonna work hard and catch Hopkins early on.

No way in hell Tarver KO's HOpkins. Not possible. Tarver will (by his own admission) pour it on strong for the first half of the fight. Hopkins waits & then get's him good...but Tarver wiill still win by SD.

Paulie causes Cotto problems with his runnign bullshat...but that's it.

Tarver is no Trinidad or De La Hoya. Tarver is almost a freaking heavyweight and he packs one mean a** punch. If Hopkins gets caught, I guarantee that he's going nite nite. After Tarver KOs Hopkins, people are gonna say "Well, Hopkins was old as hell, he should have never been in the ring with Tarver anyway" and Tarver still won't have his respect. After Hopkins there really aren't any big ($$$) fights left, but knowing Tarver he'll find a way to bring Holyfield vs Tarver to our PPV screens in January.

100% disagree. Hopkins can take the punches from Tarver. He aint the heavies handed of the 175ers you know?

I have always said that he is a 160lb man & I will say...win lose or draw that he should have never been in the ring with Tarver...but stranger things have happened & I would love it if he won!
