    I would definitely take a shot with Judah @ +261...

    I think Cotto will win, but I'm not laying that -261.

    I think Cotto will win too, but +261 is tempting for an inconsistent, but very talented Judah.

    I took Zab +270. There's a lot of value with Judah at that price. The price for Cotto is ridiculous - he should be no more than -150. Miguel is the bigger puncher, but I think Zab's hand speed will cause Cotto problems. I can see this fight going either way, but the value is with Zab, who desperately needs this fight to resurrect his career.

    If anyone wants Cotto, take him by KO at even money. If he wins this fight, it will be a stoppage.

    I'm the UNDER 9.5 here. Cotto is extremely aggressive, and has only been to decisions with guys who exclusively win that way (i.e. Corley, Malinagi, etc.). I think Judah tries to stand toe to toe with him at his own peril. Slight chance Judah lands the fluke shot as he is fighting for what's left of his career, but I really like Cotto in a middle round stoppage....

    Agree 100%.

    I just made a small play on Zab too.

    Woooo! Didn't get to watch, but the round by rounds I read made this sound like a bloody good figh and Cotto gets the TKO in the 11th - Just in time for us!

    That was a great fight. Reminded me of what boxing used to be and can be...

    I don't regret betting on Judah because he landed some punches that could have ended the fight. It was worth the risk, IMO.

    I would love to see Cotto fight Mayweather, but there's no way Floyd Jr. would do it. Zab is faster and hits harder than Mayweather and he wasn't much of a match for Cotto tonight. I have no doubt Cotto would end Mayweather's unbeaten streak.

    It was a really good fight. Zab landed a couple really nice shots in the early rounds, but Cotto proved he could take a punch better than I thought.

    Cotto will have his hands full against Margarito (assuming Margarito gets by Paul Williams, which won't be easy). I agree that Cotto is somewhat of a bad matchup for Floyd because he never stops moving forward, similar to why Jermain Taylor will have difficulty with Pavlik if that fight happens. However, I think it's far from a certainty that Cotto would beat Mayweather, and I do think the fight will happen if Cotto wins his next fight because it will be the biggest payday for Floyd. Remember, Mayweather disposed of Judah just as easily and convincingly as Cotto.

    Pavlik vs Taylor. I want to see that fight.

    Cotto vs Mayweather, that would be a interesting one as well.

    Agreed. It looks like it's going to happen too.

    I think Pavlik KO's Taylor.
