    Did you watch Cotto-Malignaggi or Hopkins-Tarver? I caught the Cotto fight. It was better than I expected. Paulie definitely earned my respect for fighting with a broken jaw and nose. I was surprised Hopkins dominated Tarver.
    I watched the Cotto fight and I have to say that he definately needs to step up in weight. He hits so damn hard at 140, but the weight is draining him, which leaves him weak in the later rounds. He doesn't have tbe best chin (he doesn't seem to be able to avoid right hands), but that may also improve at welter... Over all, I'm very impressed with him, especially that unlike Tito, he learned to speak English. If I was in Cotto's team, I'd be thinking about meeting Oscar at a catch weight before he retires. Sure, I think Oscar would beat him, but at least he gets paid... plus, losing to Oscar has never hurt anybody's career.

    As for Hopkind, I have to say that I'm also very surprised!! I bet it was the weight loss Tarver had to endure from filming the rocky movie, but who know. I think he should get Roy, knock him out, and retire into the sunset... unless for some freakish possibility he can fight Toney at a catch weight after he beats Jones.. all icing on the cake that is his legacy.

      Yeah, I agree about Cotto moving to 147. He looks absolutely gaunt when he weighs in the day before his fight. DLH will either fight PBF or retire so I don't see Cotto getting a shot at him. However, there may be some interesting matches at 140/147 in the future..PBF, Cotto, Hatton, Margarito, Collazo, Judah, Castillo, etc. I think Cotto-Castillo may be next. IMO, that's a can't miss fight! I was impressed with Cotto's post fight press conference. I had never heard him speak English prior to that.

      Who do you like this weekend? I think Winky has more skill than Tayor but Jermain is much bigger and hits harder. IMO, Wright is a true jr.middleweight and may be overmatched physically. Taylor has been working with Manny Steward so I'm sure he's improving.

        Hmmm, I really don't think Cotto can beat Castillo (at 140 anyway), but it would make for an awsome fight. As for this weekend, I'm going with Taylor too. Winky isn't a very active fighther, hasn't fought in forever, and is in a weight class that he's even more powerless at. I think we'll see a very busy Taylor win a 12 round decision in what will probably look like a snoozer.

        Going back to Cotto... that guy has a very entertaing style, but I feel he'll be overmatched by the likes of Margarito and Mayweather... I'd love to see him fight Gatti though, should he beat Baldimar (which he will).

          I think Cotto would be too much for Gatti. Arturo has been in too many wars and Cotto is just now coming into his own. There definitely would be alot of contact that's for sure!

          On a side note, I was very dissapointed in Castillo not coming in on weight for the rubber match. I'm still a fan of his but I bet he lost his share of fans. I'd favor him over Cotto but it would be a great match style wise.

              HAHAHA!! I'm just trying to make some progress before I go whoring myself off to the camera again

              I'm still about 244, so I basically look the same. When I get down to about 235, I'll be plastering those pics all over the place!

                              Thank you so much! You ladies are too funny and too sweet. I wish I had some real progress to show you all, but these last 3 will have to do until I lose another 8-10 lbs... Eventually, I'll really have something to show
