Bigtimers,
-----
Last Fight: Miguel Cotto eventually did the business with Ricardo Mayorga and dispatched of him in the 12th. Cotto took some punishment, but produced some good overall boxing. Mayorga will have to try and intimidate some other fighter.
-----
Who won: Nobody managed to call that late finish. However BLT did come close with his 11th round Cotto prediction. BLT seems to have overcome his earlier emotional outpourings - feeling straight up skanked out of 25 points in the Tim Bradley fight in February. BLT’s Wenger-like state of self-sorrow/anger only causes rubbish predictions to fly out of his mouth. Now that he’s sorted himself out, don’t be fooled by his bottom-of-the-barrel league position. He could easily produce a prenominal rise up the table.

Next biiigtime fight: The next bigtime fight is tonight. Vitali Klistchko v Oldanier Solis. The Klitschko brothers are running the heavyweight division like they’re the owners. Vitali is the better of the two and recently took a very old Shannon Briggs apart. Vitali though, hasn’t fought anyone of credibility since Lennox in 2003. With sights set on David Haye….Vitali will either waste no time and take this guy apart or overlook him…and boom! Solis is the unbeaten, former Olympic gold medalist from Cuba. These credentials alone stand him steady. He’s fought bigger bums than the Klitschko’s though so this may be a step up too far. However a fact remains – neither of the Klitschko’s would ever beat the Hayemaker. Whereas Solis has done just this, previously beating Haye badly as amateurs. Home crowd may be the key to this, but I smell a Cuban surprise!
-----
Where + When: The fight’s this Saturday (today 19th) live from Germany. It will be on Sky Sports 1 at 8.30pm. The RLTv bigtime cameras will be there as always. Get your predictions in ASAP - email, facebook, text, voicemail, whatever’s clever.
