Its in spanish sorry.It basically says that 1 month prior a fighter has to way no more than 169. Cotto is at 157. 2 weeks before the fight a fighter is suppose to be at no more then 156. Cotto is almost already there.
If anyone wants to take time and translate it word for word feel free.
Have you not seen the pictures where Cotto looks like a cancer patient?

blocked out. Starts with an east, ends with a side.
he does look better at 147
That's strange coming from the camp that said he was weight drained at 140lbs thus the excuse for the weak chin! :rofl: I've never bought that claim! Cotto's chin is suspect and margarito is going to tap into it!

This isn't that significant except that he's not going to have any problems making weight so he won't be weight drained. But given the enormity of this bout, wasn't it pretty much a given that he'd prepare properly?
lol the only guy I know who is near 5'7 and 200 lbs walking weight is a present day Roberto Duran

I still believe Margarito will KO Cotto! Cotto has a suspect chin and tires easily in the later rounds! We all saw his fight with Torres(chin) and Judah(chin) and Mosley(mostly running away from Mosley in the last 2-3 rounds)!
Yeah we all saw him in the Torres fight (KO Win!!!) and Judah Fight (TKO BEATDOWN!!!) and Mosely Fight (SCORING while moving) WTF you talking about tiring?
OR the other way around, Tony will frustrate and wear down Cotto with his relentless style and granite chin!:boxing:
but thats the ONLY way and style Margarito can do to beat him. Cotto can box, switch up his attacks. He would lure margarito in for a pop jab or 3 punch combo. Margarito just comes forward throwing what he can until it lands, he's too pre-occupied in his assault....not smart vs. some1 like Cotto. I predict Cotto going in and out to not only beat Margarito on points but wearing him in the process.
so is Cotto's jab, it will be the key to Cotto's victory. Antonio has never met a jab yet quite like Miguel's and best believe the accumulation of those jabs will, dare I say it...frustrate and wear down Margarito..

if cotto gets hurt he is done!!!! You think one of the best finishers in the game wont be able to finish cotto? If cotto is on the ropes hurt i feel terribly bad for his ribs and his chin. Uppercuts seem to make exciting knockouts when the guy is hurt on the ropes. It's a thing of beauty to see the head snap back!!!

Once Miguel beats Tony during the lead up to his next fight all they will talk about is how Tony stunned Miguel a whole one times before Cotto knocked him out. Why do these guys cling to such miniscule meaningless problems that Cotto has managed to overcome every single time?
That sounds good. Cotto's gonna be prepared and at his best for this fight. I'm sure Margarito will too. I still have Cotto by UD or possibly late stoppage. I can't wait for this shit.

Lol.. If Tony losses.. I think all Tony fans are done, and so is Tony.
Ima laugh.. Hes gonna end up like his cousin De Leon.

Cotto chin is not suspect he jus caught good shots he'll be fine.. Margarito aint beaten him .. and cotto gettin tired in late rounds what fights u watchin cotto is always fresh he hasnt shown any loss of stamina.. the last 2-3 rounds u talkin about if u watch the fight again the round b4 cotto started boxin with him which u call runnin mosley started bouncin around and movin and cotto had to chase him around 1 o 2 rounds so cotto said iight fuck it then Imma box the next 2-3 .. so he wasnt boxin cause he was tired its because he wanted to show him he could do the same .. and WIN!!
I would not be suprised if Cotto significantly outclasses Margarito... Cotto is better at everything and that will be evident come fight night.
Everyone said that Judah was going to outbox Cotto's ears off, then everyone claimed that Mosley was going to outclass, outbrawl and outbox Cotto... They also claimed that Quintana was too unorthodox and slick for Cotto...
The only fighter that Margarito has fought recently that is worth mentioning in the same sentence as Cotto is Paul Williams, and we all know what happened when Margarito faced him.
Sorry Margarito fans, Cotto is no Golden Johnson or Manuel Gomez
I can't wait untill Tony rocks Cotto, but can't finish him off.
Ima laugh.. Then Cotto still wins.
AND STILL UNDEFEATED!
