 Cotto, Zab, Corley, Paulie..., Written off, under appreciated, and overperformed. |

These guys were mostly written off for the most part but after some huge performances what's next for them?
Who would you guys like to see them in the ring with next? The zab marquez fight didn't sound bad to me and I think someone put Paulie vs morales out there. Any thoughts? |

Actually Zab vs malignaggi would be a good fight if Zab is willing to go up to 147 again. That fIght could either way! Corley is on the outside looking in, he loses when he steps up a level at his age

Corley is a bit of a wild card, he no doubt pulled off an incredible upset in his last fight. But one has to wonder if he can keep the momentum. As far as Malinaggi goes, I would like to see him take a few title defenses before stepping up to a big fight or big money fight. The top 5 contenders in the WBA rankings are soft opposition and would give Malinaggi some good work until his next big opportunity.
I'd love to see Cotto rematch Mayweather, but not immediately. It was a great fight, a better fight then most expected and both boxers put on masterful performances. Cotto showed that he is confident in his abilities once again and he could probably beat anyone at 154 not named Mayweather. I'd like to see him in next against Canelo. This fight makes perfect sense and would be a box office draw. I'd like to see Zab in with Marquez, I think he wins that fight. Zab has some options if he chooses to explore but it seems he's really interested in the Marquez fight |

I'd like to see Malignaggi stay at 147, Judah stay at 140 and fight some of the young talented guys in the division. As Kathy Duva said, Judah vs. Marqez is highly, highly unlikely (praise be to the Bobfather).
As far as Corley, I agree with BigFightFan (BFF) in that I think that he gets beaten up if he fights a legit opponent. |

we have to see what the IBF does with zabs mandatory now that peterson is probably going to be stripped...zab said on the interview here on fight hype that he at going up tp 147 for a shot at paulie..however money talks and if both win there next fights I could see them making that fight in Brooklyn
food for thought: I think golden boy is going to move khan up to 147 try to build him up as mayweathers next opponent anyone else get this feeling? |

If this Zab vs JMM fight can go down in Tx Stadium I'll be going for sure! I think that fight would be fairly interesting

QUOTE (daprofessor @ May 9 2012, 12:43 PM) I hope that BigFightFan isn't pissed off with me. Just some harmless fun and games. My screen name is Cheesey1, how stupid is that. I liked the article on FH re. Malignaggi vs Alexander (I think that it was V.Wallace who wrote it). I'd pick Alexander in that one, but yeah that would be very nice and who knows Paulie might just surprise me. - *Correction - David Kassell wrote the article.* This post has been edited by Cheesey1: May 15 2012, 07:56 AM |
