Geale by easy UD 116-112, if it even goes distance

Ya, I agree with you HOS. I think it will be tough for Cotto to get much credit for beating Geale considering the weight and Geale's destruction loss to GGG. I guess the big reward for him isn't so much credit as it is $$$, both for this fight and a super fight with Canelo.

Cotto does strike me as a diva when he's the bigger draw, and while I understand that his opponents didn't have to agree to his terms I wish we could ditch the catchweights and let fighters bring their best to the ring within the full scope of the weight division.

Agreed. And Roach said Cotto will be 166. So around 10 pound advantage for Geale.
Cmon Geale WAR!

Fully clothed, so I'm sure he's a bit lighter, but he's definitely packed on some pounds!

Geale looks petrified,I picked Cotto by decision but I don't think this goes past 6

I just hope the fix isn't in to give Cotto the win .

Still sticking by my earlier pick of Geale to win by TKO

.... about to start

Cotto 10-9

cotto's lefts were the best punches of the first round. also landing flush power jabs.
1st to cotto

Cotto still getting off first and landing cleaner sharper punches

20-18 Cotto


I think Geale waiting for him to slow down

cotto is a MUCH better boxer than geale. he's throwing 3 punch combos and
landing flush. he's also throwing the right leads more to body and head to
compliment the left hooks.
2-0 cotto

Geale is going to be stopped within a few more rounds.

Cotto still out working him

But I do notice him slowing a little

30-27 Cotto

Geale better not wait too long

cotto is several steps ahead of geale. geale missing A LOT and cotto landing
as much as he wants, keeping his hands up and protecting well but for the most
part pulling away from geale's punches before geale even lets go.
2 different leagues
3-0 cotto

Oh knock down

Wow great shot by cotto

another one., it's over

Wow color me impressed

Sorry Miguel. Now fight ggg

ok, well that never even looked like a fight.
geale got dominated

Very disappointing performance by Geale and a very good win for Cotto, somewhat tarnished by the catchweight.

was the fix in ? :OhYes

sickening how HBO commentators saying how great Cotto is

I think the catchweight more of Cotto showing who the star is

Don't think it effected the fight. Geale quit. When he had crazy reach and size advantage

Good for Cotto. But step up please

Impressive performance by Cotto. Both defense and offense top notch. Needless to say, I did not see this coming.

Canelo or GGG clash just got tastier.
