    At the 7 day (8 until the official) weigh-in, Cotto weighed 148, just a pound over the limit.

    Well, I'd rather see it as an indication that Cotto takes Judah seriously but that's just me. I can see Judah ko'ing Cotto so you won't read that excuse from me if it happens.

    Are you picking Zab?

    I have a gut feeling he'll win, but I pick with my head over my gut, so I'm thinking Cotto stops in the mid rounds.

    Does anyone think thats too light? There is still 2+ weeks left for the fight. I have a feeling Judah is going to pull it off. :doh: Cotto looks in tremendous shape but Zab is bound to win 1 big fight.

    I'm not picking Zab, but I'm helping the Cottomates with their excuses.

    It's far from unreasonable to pick Zab IMO. Judah has shown to have power and the ability to land the punches that delivers it and Cotto has looked very vulnerable in two fights. I'm a Cotto fan and I must admit this fight make me nervous. Logically Cotto should win but despite all his limitations, Zab is a dangerous fighter, especially early.

    I've said this before but I still like Cotto in this one. I believe the extra 7 pounds will allow him to take Zab's shots better.

    Zab's got a punchers chance, but he's also got a loser's mentality once the fight goes a few rounds.

    I couldn't agree more. Sure on paper it looks bad for Judah, but Zab is dongerous no matter what anyone wants to believe. The guy can punch and is some of the fastest hands in the game.

    Cotto will destroy him so bad that people will start clamoring for a Floyd-Cotto fight. Cotto TKO 5 :bears:by a brutal bloody beating

    100 PERCENT WRONG. It is totally UNREASONABLE to pick Zab. He has a 1 out of 10 chance. No wonder boxing promoters exploit fans. Supposedly knowledgable fans think this is a competetive fight. It isn't. Zab is a proven failure even at the B level level. You guys are ridiculous. This is yet another gimee for Cotto. He deserve no credit for this fight. Zab hasn't won a fight in 2 fucking years.

    This fight can end at any time. Cotto also has a punchers chance. Zab and Miguel dont have the best of chins. I feel the one who lands clean first will have a great chance to win. DONT BLINK:eeeek:

    Sounds like he's focused to me. That kind of swings my pick to Cotto, a little. I'm still waiting to hear how Judah's been doing in the gym.

    I think we all will be suprised of Cotto's chin at 147, just my opinion though.

    Last time I checked he did pretty good against the p4p champion Mayweather for the first 4-5 rounds.:nono: And he did score a clean knockdown as well. This is not a walk in the park for Cotto.

    No he didn't do fucking well. No, you are wrong. He did worse, read that again, WORSE than DLH and Castillo. He won 3 of the first 4 and lost the following 8 rounds and would have been stopped had he not caused a riot. Cotto is a fraud but if he loses to Judah he is the biggest fraud in history. This will be an easy fight for Cotto. Judah sucks and always has. My god, you New Yorkers are delusional. Judah got humilated by Floyd. It was not a close fight.

    It could turn out that way, but it's ridiculous to totally dismiss Zab's chances. Obviously it doesn't look good for Zab, but with Cotto's chin and Zab's power, it wouldn't be a total shock if Zab KO'd him.

    It would be to for people who know anything about the sport, meaning me. Judah sucks and always has sucked. He hasn't won a fight in two fucking years. Get out of New York and smell the world.

    Basically all your bases are covered. If Judah wins you'll say that you knew Cotto was a bum all along because he's been fighting gimmes since the start of his career and if Cotto wins, you'll say you knew it all along. :lol: Well, call me an idiot if you want but Zab is fast, he punches hard and Cotto can be hurt. Does it mean Zab will win, no, but I sure hope Cotto doesn't hold the same opinion of Judah as you because that could spell trouble for him. Remember, the guy you call a bum is the only man to knock Floyd Mayweather legitimately (even though it wasn't counted but it was surely more legitimate than the Hernandez knockdown). Judah is a mental midget and isn't tough but it doesn't mean he doesn't have some abilities.

    I'm in the same state as you dingbat! I'm not picking Zab, I'm just saying I personally wouldn't be surprised to see Cotto's glass chin shattered.

    Go back to New York. Anyyone who thinks Zab winning is anything more than an historic upset is a New Yorker. You might live in this fine state, but you are a New Yorker at heart.

    Cotto is a fraud. It is hard to say he sucks. He just has fought shit competition and Zab is no exception. Zab hasn't won in 2 years. Cotto may or may not suck, but he refused to fight anyone. Zab loses to the level of fight Cotto beats.

    ok Cotto is a dead man at all weigh ins and weighs like 155-160 on fight night no matter if he fights LWW or WW and now he's fucking 148??? Did he lose a leg or something??

    I don´t know, but that would increase Judah´s chances to about 45/55, if Cotto lost a arm though I´d make Zab a solid 60/40 favourite.
