Sosa at 7/1 against is very interesting. Cotto hasn't fought anyone like Sosa before, and while Miguel certainly deserves to be favourite, it's tempting to throw a few quid on Sosa.

Also, check out Mesi-Jirov. Mesi is a fimrish favourite here when looking at the odds 2/5 on. Jirov looks great value at 7/4, i actually think he is going to win.

Agree with both.

To be honest lads, those odds sound about right to me.
Sosa is a tough SOB but Cotto looks a world beater and you have to like him here.

Mesi........well I hate the way they're protecting him here - a cruiserweight?! Couldn't they find a heavy to match him with for christ's sake??!!
Still, there little gamble might backfire. Jirov is a game guy and might just pull it off. But it's gonna be 10 long rounds with a much heavier opponent.
Still, like you all say, worth a bet I reckon!

I'd be more surprised if Cotto loses than if Mesi does.

Mesi should have enough power to make a cruiser like Jirov respect him. HBO are protecting him big time here.
