People need to stop letting their emotions get in the way of their thinking when it comes to this fight.
Sure, every BOXING fan wants to see Margarito get his face smashed inside out.
But if Cotto fights that fight, he might not make it to the final bell.
Tony's got an incredibly sturdy chin. We don't really know what his power is like without the wraps, but he'll still throw.
Can Cotto survive the onslaught? His best bet is to BOX.
But I just don't see him doing that.

If he boxes, and moves, he stands a chance, but I just don't see that happening.
I wouldn't at all be surprised to see him get stopped again.
Even sooner this time.
I hate to say it, but he just has too much of a propensity to mix it up.

Originally posted by LoadedWraps View PostWho knows? We will see tomorrow. But how much will it really matter? Cotto isn't as fast or as conditioned as Manny, and Manny destroyed his eye but he really didn't slow him down that much, I don't see Cotto injuring Margarito, unless his eye is worse than they say and they end up stopping the fight. But to rely on that is crazy. Also Margarito's conditioning is mythical, has he EVER been tired in the ring? He has also been working heavily on slipping punches this training camp, and his defense was always underrated, so this will be a VERY interesting fight, Cotto is in the fight as long as he boxes intelligently and keeps his distance, but Margarito cuts off the ring well so it will be tough.

Oscar's f'd up big time, but at least he's a straight-forward businessman.
