I'll be doin Round by Round for this fight. Any opinions on this fight?

If you are a die hard fan of the ‘sweet science’, or just your average Joe who tunes in from time to time to witness a good humdinger, well Joes get your cash in hand because tonight there is a fight that you certainly should not miss! From the Mecca of boxing, Madison Square Garden live on HBO Pay Per View 9:00 PM ET/6:00 PM PT an entertaining as well as intriguing championship welterweight clash will commence as the defending welterweight titleholder Miguel Cotto 29-0 (24) tries to protect his unblemished record and strap against the savvy Zab Judah 34-3

Can the power-punching Puerto Rican keep his undefeated record intact, or can the former champ Judah finally find his first W in two years by causing a major upset? Tune in tonight to find out

Marlin:

You know I am a tightwad when it comes to spending clams on any event, but if I am going to dish out any of my hard earned green, which is petite in my pocket, I would definitely hand out a few for this match-up. This should be a terrific bout with some thrills and spills to boot. These two are going to swing for the fences, should be a great first half of the fight, and we should really get a peak at how Cotto’s chin is doing these days. I think this is going to be a back and forth fight, both having their moments in and out throughout the next, possibly both tasting canvas. Zab should know his days are numbered and with his last win coming two years ago he knows be better pull a rabbit out of his hat! I have it going two ways, either Zab gets Cotto out of there early, Cotto has been dropped and Judah does have them fast heavy hands that could pose some serious problems…or Cotto pounds out a late stoppage or a decision win. So if I had to pick one…just to go against the grain I say Judah slaps out the upset!

I dont think so...Judah wont get caught early...well if he does it will be in the first few rounds but if not, he'll make it to the very near end of the fight maybe a last round knockout. I just dont see Cotto losing this fight. Gonna drop some coin on the ML.

Small bet on Judah by KO +500.



might as well take the UNDER in rounds as well if you like that since the Judah knockout win would for sure come in the first four rounds if at all. Good Luck man...

Round 2

More of the same in the second round. Mostly jabs from both fighters, a couple of ineffective combinations by Cotto. Cotto gets caught with a pretty good straight right hand towards the end of the round that seemed to daze him. Cotto starting to establish his body work but nothing really significant landing. Zab is dodging and parrying most of Cotto's shots to the head.

Cotto 10-9
