forgot that emanuel steward was now the trainer of cotto's and that could play a big part in the fight. but how much more can an "old dog" like cotto learn? whereas chavez jr. is still young and could learn so much with someone like roach? just spectulating! in cotto's last fight, he showed he still had a vaunted offense but he has taken alot of punishment lately (foreman omitted) and he to me just seems to cut and bleed a little more nowadays.

the reason why i think chavez jr. might beat him is because here you have an example of a young lion going up to challenge an old grizzled lion. usually the young lion wins if the old one in damaged goods.

if chavez jr. does beat cotto i will not enjoy it as much cause like i've said, cotto is my current favorite puerto rican warrior. the man is humble and classy and an ultimate warrior.
