Interesting match up tonight, in what is probably Miguel Cotto's last pro fight, against Yoshihiro Kamegai for the vacant WBO Light-Middleweight Title.
Cotto is returning after an extensive lay-off to his defeat to middleweight title clash with Saul Alvarez, a fight which was much closer than the scorecards suggest it was.
Cotto at the tail end of his career, but still he is the biggest test for Kamegai in his career.
Kamegai coming of a good win over Jesus Soto Karass.
I like Cotto in this one, great technical skills, accurate punching, his work to the body and probably one of the most underrated jabs in the game.
Think Cotto takes this in 7.
What do you boxing fans think about this one?

What a fight, and what a granite chin Kamegai has got.
Will Cotto be able to last this pace.
2 rounds to 1 Cotto.
Don't think Kamegai can take too many of these punches

This dude isn't normal. Just eating huge punches from Cotto

Either the pace gets to Cotto or Kamegai gets stopped on his feet because he is taking too many big punches, even though they don't seem to be affecting him.

Cotto fighting at his pace now, still catching Kamegai, but his is still marching forward.

Kamegai is as one dimensional fighter as it is.
His gamelan wasn't working, but he just the same thing for 12 rounds.
Cotto should win this 119-109.
