I see a KO for Mr. Cote here. Good matchup though.

Sakara's boxing is underrated and Cote's boxing is probably overrated judging by his last fight. Now if Sakara's chin holds up, this is gonna be a good scrap.

Sakara's chin won't hold up against Cote.

Looks like an even matchup

Judging by Cote's last fight against Cung Lee, I'm giving Sakara a 50-50 chance going into this one. Cote looked like **** in his last fight and I'm sure every fan was expecting more from him as I was, but he blew that opportunity ...... will he blow this one and be cut once again? ..... I for one hope he does well.

I hope Sakara wins, he a very exciting fighter and always has been. I just think his chin will fail him especially since Cote has some heavy hands.

Sakara is the better technical striker but I think Cote's chin and power are going to be enough to get him a win here. Should be a good one.

Cote really disappointed me against Cung, He needs to use pressure, If he does Sakaras chin will not hold up... I expect Sakara to pull out with an injury... lol

This is an amazing fight. Sakara is more crisp with his strikes, very good technical boxing, But Cote can take a shot, which is the sole reason why I'm picking him to win via mid-late TKO.
