I like this match-up Saturday night, this should be a good test for both pugs.
Dec. 1
At New York (Showtime): Austin Trout vs. Miguel Cotto, 12 rounds, for Trout's WBA "regular" junior middleweight title; Jayson Velez vs. Salvador Sanchez II, 10 rounds, junior lightweights; Daniel Jacobs vs. Chris Fitzpatrick, 10 rounds, middleweights.
Unless he's shot after the fight with Floyd Jr., I've gotta go with Cotto, just on the huge advantage in experience in title fights alone. Trout is undefeated, 25-0 (14 KO), but he doesn't have enough power to cause Miguel any grief, and I don't believe Trout will outbox him. Cotto by UD, or a TKO in the later rounds. (I wonder who Diane will be pulling for?)
Who ya'll got in this one?
