Good work girls
In fact you will be like the play ground girls who hang around the Popular boy, like his cheerleaders and he picks a fight on the wrong "bigger boy" and as hes helped off the floor you will bitch that the "bigger boy" is just a nasty bully who should pick on someone his own size!![]()
Will you quietly disperseas hes floundering around on the floor and the teacher has to pull the bigger boy off?

Mayorga wraps up Ocala training, heads to Vegas | Ocala.com
let's get back to the fight.........as far as I can see, Cotto started to get old overnight, as they say, in his last fight and a half. Not that those plaster wraps didnt also take too much out of him too..........anybody getting whipped BAD 2 of the last 3 or 4 fights is pretty much finished. Cotto is an OLD young man. Mayorga is pretty refreshed after a long layoff. Healed and well-conditioned apparently. Word is he has been sparring with a 165-pounder. I think his power will be more than anyone who Cotto faced.
He will strike early like a cobra. B4 you know it, Cotto willbe counted out, I'll say it will happen before the 1st minute of round 3 is gone. I think Pacquiao took whatever Cotto had left.
Look on the link I gave hes sparring Bobby Bryant and is knocking him down in sparring. Hes a big young light middle with power. Was trained by Buddy McGirt.

I love this whole "Cotto got old overnight" stuff...well what the hell is Mayorga?!?! When was the last time he was even competitive with a top tier fighter(which at 154 Cotto still is)? The facts are these Mayorga is 37, he hasn't been in great shape, he's never been solid on defense, the last few guys he's fought that were anywhere close to top tier were the fading superstars Mosley, De la Hoya, and Trinidad...he was stopped by all of them. The last "big fight" Mayorga won was the rematch to Vernon Forrest. He WAS competitive with Mosley.....but he still got KTFO.
Miguel Cotto got beat by a guy with plaster wraps and a prime Manny Pacquiao....and that makes him "old".....give me a freaking break.
I dont think Ccotto got old overnight. I just believe that he would never have coped with Mayorgas physical presence. His size, strength, power and aggrressive will.
Iv seen Cotto back peddle against similar fighters who put it on Miguel. If Cotto feels they are stronger than him he gives a bit.
I also believe had Mayorga had a different personality and actually knuckled down and trained hard that he could have beaten at least Trinidad and Mosley. Both he was doing very well with until he gassed late in the 1st with Trinidad (Only 4 weeks training) and around the 7th with Mosely. Oscar may always have done that, not sure.
Mayorga has stuck in training. Don King wants him to be used as a Pacquiao opponent, so sold the idea of him as Cottos first defence to Arum. He gave him a warm up fight against a similar styled fighter. He has also sent his right hand man and talent scout Al Bonnani down to Ocala to make sure that Mayorga is putting the work in. Hes also given him strong young up and coming fighters as sparring partners. Not faded old names after some cash.
That's all well and good, but Cotto is well rounded, more than people give him credit for. He boxes when he needs to and he goes to war when he needs to...odds are that Manny Steward will want him to box a little more. What's going to happen is he'll want Cotto to use the jab (he's got a good one), pick off Mayorga's big wide looping punches, and counter them and as always dig to the body. Cotto has always had good timing which has put him at an advantage when he fights someone with faster hands...but Mayorga doesn't exactly have blazing speed.
Asw for size Mayorga is 2" taller and has maybe 3" in reach which would be wonderful for fighting Cotto if Mayorga knew what the hell to do with those things. Ricardo won't stay outside, he won't use his height, he may well weigh 170 on fight night but then again so will Cotto....I just see 0 advantage for Mayorga...0.
The longer the fight lasts, the worse it will get for Mayorga...he'll be severely outclassed.

Ding-ding-ding-ding!! It's finally confirmed... you ARE a hater (not to mention a total ass). Trinidad? Give me a break, loser. This was Trinidad's first fight back after a couple of years layoff and, other than a fluke "half-knockdown" early in the fight, he was never in any type of trouble against the orange-haired clown. What IS it with you and Puerto Rican fighters? Are you just bitter, because we have a greater boxing history than you?
All I ever read from you is pure, baseless shit. Ever since I've started reading your stuff on the forum, you've NEVER said anything of value, or knowledge. You always come across as a teenage bitch, with little voodoo dolls in your pink room of the fighters you hate, and stick pins in them all the time.
And for the record, as I have said to all the other De La Hoya worshippers.... Mayorga was just another case of Oscar taking advantage of someone ALREADY damaged by Tito. So don't show your ignorance YET AGAIN in matters that you know very little about.
And please do drop in after the Cotto-Mayorga fight (though not immediately after, 'cause I'll be busy celebrating Cotto's victory).... so we can shit on you all over the forum. Ok white boy?

Can't believe Mayorga wins this fight but he is exciting and fun to route for....speaking of shot fighters Mayorga's last two wins came against Michael Walker (Who?) and a faded Fernando Vargas. Gotta think Cotto has more left in the tank at this point and a better arsenal.
this is the only chance of mayorga. i he cant do it in earlier rounds then mayorga will be ko in the later rounds
