    Foreman is nothing special, but he might be a bad style matchup for the gun shy, and undersized Cotto. Plus Cotto hasnt attacked the body in YEARS.

    It's true. Vinny thinks he is down in the 5 Points taking one for Don Fadigo.

    He's getting this type of exposure because he's fighting Cotto in Yankee Stadium, where there hasn't been a fight since Ali/Norton in the mid-70's.

    It's similar to the exposure Clottey got before his fight with PacMan.

    If this fight was in a typical arena or casino, Foreman would be as anonymous and he was when he beat Daniel Santos.

    I guess the difference being that Foreman has a much better chance at the win then Clottey had against Pac.

    Foreman hasn't even cracked the headlining article on Fightbeat. Maybe in a few months he will.

    You're not a media sensation until you've cracked the FightBeat lineup. :nono:
