[46and0]

Come on Jennings. Go out swinging mate.

[SouthpawSlayer]

damn my prediction nearly came through. ouch nice left hook to start it off

[BamBam]

Yeah I was going to lump on Cotto KO4 but held off. I was fucking furious with myself there for a minute but I'm glad I didn't do it now or I'd be sick!

[GazOC]

At the very least Jennings has pissed all over Lockets performance.

[Pug1list]

cotto landing some big shots in 5th

[JIM KELLY]

Cotto reminds me of Tong PO= "mai ling..good fuk"

[SouthpawSlayer]

crap stoppage

[Pug1list]

all over cotto wins

[ishy]

Ref's waved it off, saved Jennings from more punishment.

[46and0]

What a mismatch

[faisal]

cotto looks finished

[TFFP]

This fight looked like a guy trying to fend off a bull with a fly swat.

[JIM KELLY]

I hope shane meets cotto again and kicks his ass.

[BamBam]

Gulf in class was way too much. Lets give Jennings his dues though. He didn't quit, he did his best, he wasn't up to it.

Good stoppage though. No point in letting him get beat up a bit more.

[JIM KELLY]

yeah , Jennings went in against a very top opponent, and hadn't even faced a top 20 p4p fighter, so i give him his dues.

[SouthpawSlayer]

hmmmm, he didnt go out on his shield though did he ala fernando vargas say

[McGrain]

Good fight. Micheal did well, he howed heart and had a good gameplan. Cotto is just to good, and that other gear is terrifying.

Everyone agrees it was a good stoppage?

[BamBam]

double post (interweb problems)

[ninebar]

Ah shit! Nice try Michael proud of you, Cotto is a beast and you still went out for the 5th when many would have quit.

[ishy]

Yeah, stoppage was good. Jennings didn;t have anything more to offer, good refereeing .

[TFFP]

Yeah it was a good stoppage. Jennings did what he could.

In other news...Cotto just talked about himself in the third person. I'll let him off since its in Spanish.

[Healy]

Just put a fiver on Cotto to win in the 5th round

Iv said it to anyone that listened, back Cotto to win in the 5th, cover the bet if you want by putting half the exact amout you have bet on the 5th round stoppage on the 4th and the 6th, ie-€5 on the 5th and then €2.50 on both the 4th and the 6th.

Fortunally i was feeling lucky to didnt cover the bet...€5 at 7/1, €40 snots back please Paddy Power

[faisal]

hopefully pavlik gets beat

[ishy]

Kell Brook v Michael Jennings anyone?

[GazOC]

hmmmm, he didnt go out on his shield though did he ala fernando vargas say

or ala Johnny Owen?

[SouthpawSlayer]

Yeah it was a good stoppage. Jennings did what he could.

how did you change the thread title

cotto's hat says panadol:rofl:huh

[Pug1list]

[TFFP]

I like Pavlik inside 2 rounds.

[JIM KELLY]

good call on brook v jennings. ^

[JIM KELLY]

lol @ rubio, some old man!

[ishy]

Rubio seems pretty relaxed.

[TFFP]

Rubio even looks like a joke.

Pavlik in one round.

[SouthpawSlayer]

or ala Johnny Owen?

im not asking him to go that far, but im sure michael might think i could have given it a tiny bit more and who knows if i had caught him, that was michaels chance now its gone although i dont blame him nor the ref, the chance that scenario actually happening was so low,

hopefully jennings got a nice few schilings for that

[ishy]

Bloody hell, Arum is forking out for this!!!! Buffer at MSG and Jimmy Lennon here.

[JonOli]

Cricky Kelly I need to turn the brightness down.

[SouthpawSlayer]

rubio looks like a peado and the ref looks like his dad

[SouthpawSlayer]

wtf rubio has that nasty michael jackson disease

[Pug1list]

rubio mexican roadsweeper personified.

[TFFP]

Good crowd. Nearly a British crowd. Really getting behind their guy!

[JonOli]

Rubio even looks like a joke.

Pavlik in one round.

Give him a chance... you can't judge a book...

[JonOli]

I do bet to fun purely

[JIM KELLY]

kelly kapowlski is on for the early kill.

[SouthpawSlayer]

rubio done nothing

[TFFP]

FFS. Rubio is scared as shit after he felt the power. He hasn't even thrown a punch. This puts Jennings' effort into perspective.

[JIM KELLY]

what a shyt mismatch, damn top rank!!

[ishy]

Rubio has shit his pants.

[Pug1list]

rubio has done nothing in either round, good stuff

[Pug1list]

death threats from ohio faithful

[SouthpawSlayer]

crazy mexican cornermen

[ishy]

Just finish this!! Pavlik's gone into Wlad mode.

[JIM KELLY]

cheech and chong would put upa better fight!!

AA will defo hurt pavlik And vice versa.

[TFFP]

To be fair to Pavlik...Rubio is just running and throwing nothing. Pavlik will have to break him down.

Rubio must be in good condition though, hasn't been hurt yet.

thats the Mexican heritage man, they never get hurt ..

[TFFP]

"Now its YOUR time Rubio" :lol:

I await with baited breath

[SouthpawSlayer]

do somethin rubio

[Pug1list]

Jonathon Ross could get a rise out of Manuel

[JIM KELLY]

is it round 6 or 8? my vision is blurred. lol

[JonOli]

rubio is mixing it up:yikes

[TFFP]

Rubio is really sucking this up well.

[TFFP]

Pavlik actually looks pretty tired now.

Maybe Rubio has taken his best and will go 12?

[JIM KELLY]

damnn never judge a book..

this rubio has some balls.

[Pug1list]

lol @comms rubio out on his feet, rubio starts landing blows

[JonOli]

Theres not real power in his punches (and he's perhaps out of there very soon) but Rubio's been catching Pavlik, on occasion, with similar punches to Hopkins did.

[JIM KELLY]

damn i cant stand mancini!!!

[Pug1list]

all over, rubio retires on stool.

[TFFP]

That is the problem when you have guys that are so outgunned skillwise.

They are scared to even put anything on a punch for leaving themselves open to what is coming back. It results in these negative performances.

And he quit.

[brown bomber]

I've saved my prediction till now... I like mick and this is in no way putting him down as a fighter, he's a very good domestic level fighter who could do well at Euro level. I think Jennings will start fairly fast and Cotto will be somewhat suprised intially by his tenacity. But Cotto, despite been a slow starter tends to suprise opponents early, so don't be suprised to see jennings at least rocked early, maybe he'll suffer a first round knock down.

I think the It is going to take Cotto a little time to get into the fight after the initial opening exchanges. Jennnings fast hands and good movement will see him pecking away... not on the back foot but intelligently moving in and out of range. Say three rounds in Cotto will start taking over with his eye catching counters, it will still be fairly even but Cotto class will be beginning to tell. By around the seventh round Jennings will have been counter punched sufficiently to make him realise that the fight is no longer winnable on points. Here Jennings' heart and pride will hurt him. He'll start to stand and trade with Cotto. Cotto's hooks will find there way behind Jennings vey frontal guard. Jennings will wobble andas he tries to fight cotto off, Miguel will loop those left hooks into Jennings long body and force a knockdown.

Jennings won't give in, he'll prob try and get up and carry on but if he makes it to the end of the round Brian Hughes pulls him out and if he goes down again the towel comes in...

Cotto via stoppage rounds 6-9Jennings fought very well, I was really impressed and he NO WAY embarassed himself. Cottos pressure began to tell much earlier then I thought it would. In round three, I could see the pace was starting to get to him and he wanted to make a stand.... which I thought would come around the seventh... Not a bad prediction though?

[brown bomber]

Pavlik is so average.... he trades almost entirely on his freakish ability to squeeze his frame under the middle limit.. Calzaghe would have ko'd him.

[GazOC]

Jennings just didn't have the pop to keep Cotto off him. Thank fuck Setanta showed the NY card because the Pavlik fight wasn't worth saying up till 5am for.
