Undefeated junior lightweight Luis Cruz, who is opening the HBO pay-per-view being headlined by Manny Pacquiao vs. Juan Manuel Marquez on November 12 in Las Vegas, Nevada, will most likely will move his training camp to Tampa, Florida - where Miguel Cotto will start training on the 26th of this month, for his rematch with Antonio Margarito on December 3rd at New York's Madison Square Garden. Cruz, 25, is ranked second by the WBO, fourth by the IBF, seventh by the WBA and tenth by the WBC.

Everything will be on the line for Antonio Margarito when he faces off with Miguel Cotto a second time this December 3rd at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Inactive since last November's horrendous thrashing at the hands of Manny Pacquiao, this may be the last shot at a title for the 33-year old Margarito as he attempts to lift Cotto’s WBA junior middleweight crown in the air by night’s end.

As is always the case, trainer Robert Garcia currently has a lot on his plate. Working closely with such notables as WBA lightweight champion Brandon ‘Bam Bam’ Rios, bantamweight king Nonito Donaire, former welterweight boss Antonio Margarito, and featherweight contender and younger brother Mikey Garcia, the man nicknamed ‘Grandpa’ will surely be seeing an eventful finish to his 2011 campaign with each man having a fight scheduled in the coming months.

NEW YORK — Bob Arum said that his promotional company, Top Rank Inc., has struck a deal with HBO Sports for the company to televise the pay-per-view rematch between Miguel Cotto and Antonio Margarito.

World class trainer Robert Garcia was one of the recent guests to appear on BoxingScene.com's official radio show, "The Boxing Lab". Garcia has a deep stable of fighters, including world champions Nonito Donaire and Brandon Rios.
