Official Cotto VS Foreman POLL and discussion thread!

[CFH]

The only real question in this fight is how much does Cotto have left? If he's anywhere near the fighter he used to be, he'll beat Foreman. However, he's obviously past his prime and is coming off a pretty savage beating at the hands of Pacquiao. I think Foreman will give him trouble at times, but I think Cotto's skill and experience will see him through. Cotto by close UD or MD/SD, probably a disputed one. I wouldn't be that surprised to see Foreman win though.

Yup, that's pretty much how I see it. I'd like to see Cotto lay a beaten on Foreman... Not because I dislike Foreman but when Cotto gets into a rythm and starts landing he's really fun to watch. I hope he brings his pop up with him and gets to Foreman's body. He can throw some damaging hooks to the body. Cotto will be the much smaller man but with Cotto not fighting to make weight and Foreman having a lowly KO% I see his punch resistance being where it should be. Cotto's always been able to box when he has to and do it well.

Foreman has G-d in his corner. He survived the Russians, a boxing gym full of Palestinians, and an many pages of Talmud study. Cotto will be smote by Yuri's hand!

as much as i'm a huge fan of miguel cotto, it pains me to say that i think he isn't the same fighter before the margarito fight and i think he gets beat by yuri foreman pretty handily this coming saturday night. yuri foreman is an exceptional boxer and he's going to have a huge height, reach and speed advantage over cotto. the only way cotto can win imo, is by knockout and even then, it's going to be interesting if he can bring his power up to jr. middleweight. while i think the judges are going to make this a closer than it looks fight, i think foreman wins this one handily!

Cotto looks lean and mean and Foreman is not a big puncher so Cotto wins by decision.

[Slice N Dice]

Foreman isn't the most exciting guy but he is a very good effective boxer. I also agree he has more power than his record suggests, but he's pretty conservative and would rather just win rounds. I think he wins this by a rather comfortable UD.

I think Foreman will win, most likely by a close unanimous or split decision, but I've gone for the Foreman KO option because no one else will and if he does I can act like I'm some kind of boxing guru seeing things the rest of you don't. Which mark my words I will do
