Miguel Cotto Is Ready For His Close-Up

November 9, 2007

Saturday night is definitely Hockey Fight Night in Canada America (sorry, old habits die hard).

Earlier this week, we previewed the Elite XC: Renegade show with Sam Caplan but now its time to discuss tomorrow night’s showdown between Miguel Cotto and Shane Mosley. So, we tracked down the sweet scientist himself, Larz from No Mas Online, to help dissect all the action.

Madison Square Garden is the venue, HBO PPV is the network and below is the official card:
