| Cotto's Adviser: Margarito is Next in June After Mayorga
|
|
by Jhonny Gonzalez Gabriel Peñagaricano, the legal adviser for WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto, says Ricardo Mayorga will be a lead-in opponent to a June rematch with Antonio Margarito. Cotto was initially going to wait it out until the June rematch with Margarito, but his team wanted him to stay active. Cotto has not been in the ring since winning the title from Yuri Foreman in June. Maragrito stopped Cotto in eleven rounds in 2008. A few days ago, promoters Bob Arum and Don King reached an agreement for Mayorga to become Cotto's opponent on March 12 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. "I wanted Miguel to have a fight before he faces Margarito again in June and Mayorga is a good opponent. It is important that Miguel stays active," Peñagaricano told Carlos Gonzalez. |

[QUOTE=Plaster...Sad.]Cotto CAN hurt Margarito if he is not back-peddling and avoiding sheetrock shots all night. That changes everything.
At this point, better hope that Irish dude, Alvarez, who is reppin your country is the real deal cause it looks dismal for Mexico at this point.[/QUOTE]

Cotto's going to clean out Mayorgas tar filled lungs with a digging body shot that ends the fight in 9.
Marg--Sloppy, flat footed dirtbag whose as much a cancer to this sport as bob arum. This is his death march and deep down he knows it. Miguel's going to whip his ass and the haters will cringe... |
