re: JMM/Cotto maybe only talk,but could be via a Cotto Provodnikov warm up fight?
I'm a huge JMM fan but with his mobility hampered by knee issues (is this getting to be a theme for cotto opponents) and I don't believe Cotto will make 147 and probably outweigh Marquez by 10+ lbs on fight night. I think even the "Hulk" version of Marquez hurts Cotto at that weight. So as in so many other fights where Marquez erased his early knockdowns by fighting skillfully afterwards, I think the opposite will be true this time. Marquez can box beautifully, put his punches together, getting dropped by a bigger Cotto with better knees/mobility (especially when bradley already drafter up a blue print that didnt involve, pacquiaos in and out footwork or mayweathers speed) every 2 rounds will bury him on the scorecards if it goes that far.
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.
