Form is temporary, class is permanent. Interesting to see how Cotto deals with the massive height disadvantage though but yeh, that body is going to pay.

Re: Anybody else smell an upset with Cotto/Foreman?
Foremans a good mobile fighter who uses the ring very well. If Steward gets Cotto back to boxing and addresses a few things, Cotto stands a decent shot at beating Foreman.
If Manny can bring Cottos hands down just a tad so their not blocking his peripheral vision, it will be a plus for Cotto as he'll have more opportunities to counter and Foreman won't spend the whole fight hooking and pivoting.
Some added head movement and stepping up Cottos rope routines so he can close the distance faster and stay with Foreman once hes on the run, improves Cottos chances dramatically. Just my opinion...(Never was a Cotto fan, myself)
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

Re: Anybody else smell an upset with Cotto/Foreman?
I am not sure what the upset would be? Cotto lost his last 3 fights in my eyes, and Foreman is coming off his biggest win. I think Santos was obviously bothered by the weight he agreed to, but Yuri still looked like a pretty solid fighter.
Soo if by upset, you mean Cotto wins, then no I do not smell an upset. I think this is a stylistic nightmare for Cotto, who is digging deep by moving up in weight after losing at a catch weight below welter.
Don't be deceived by the color of his skin!

Cotto wins this, Foreman does not punch hard enough to deter Cotto.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

Foreman, born in Belarus but now a confirmed Yankee fan, is preparing to become a rabbi. As he will be observing his Sabbath until sundown on Saturday, June 5, the first bell for the main event will not ring until 11.30 pm. That will also give New York's large Jewish population time to reach the stadium and help swell the crowd to an expected 35,000.
