DT.com Boxing Lounge: Cotto vs. Pacquiao 11/14
Saturday night I'm going to be back in the luxury box at the Garden in NYC for Cotto's latest outing



Miguel Cotto once again shows his heart and tremendous courage by accepting a TOUGH , DANGEROUS opponent with a great chance at pulling an upset: Joshua Clottey of Ghana. With a 35- 2 record Joshua is easily a top 10 welterweight, and many would argue top 5. Clottey has only two losses, both to men who went on to become world champions ... and one of those was to the Mexican cheater Margarito, who as we know also used his loaded gloves to stop the Cotto-train.

There is added drama to the fight in that once humble Cotto seems tr have ditched his long-time trainer, his father If you've been following his career like me you have seen the signs ... the flashy haircuts, the tats .... I hope the boy hasn't become a corrupted star. He better bring the A game, Clottey is fast and Clottey is technical, and Clottey will NOT tire.

Look at that rabid NYC crowd! Every culture, color and creed coming together to watch some champs clash! It is sad but true, when it is boxing time I have no issues waving the PR flag. Sorry my compatriots, but we Dominicans have failed miserably when it comes to the fight game. Cotto dives in the deep end almost every fight, while our man Joan Guzman doesn't cut it and misses his weight

Don't be jealous haters, ask nice and I may have a ticket for YOU next time !

Trust I'll have one for all my friends on this board and then some! The undercard is underwhelming so may as well drink drink drink.

Tropic Thunder was something else...my girl hated it..I thought it was hilarious! Downey stole the show, hands down.

I liked it when I saw it in the theater, and this weekend when it played on cable even more of the lines had me cracking up. Sgt. Lincoln Osiris

Now fellas! I saw this movie a couple of time and I didn't care for it much! I thought it was a bit silly... By all means, I didn't hate the movie! I just couldn't get jiggy with it... So maybe this is really a guys flick..

I think you're right DL. Just like fights, only guys can appreciate watching other grown men go FULL RETARD
