...in his prime. Cotto was on top of his game that night. He did everything damn near perfect. He would've probably stopped a prime Tito.
You're slippin homie.. Tito would Ko Cotto..
Tito is waay faster than margarito.. has more hand speed and foot speed.. Tito like Margarito, is a BIG welterweight, but like i stated earlier, Tito has more speed and probably more power than Margarito.. The reason Cotto looked so good against Margarito when he was boxing is because Margarito's defense is pretty sorry.. Well atleast when guarding his face, he knew he has a good chin so he basically relied on that.. You must of forgot how good Tito was at welterweight.. He was Better than the likes of Cotto and Margarito, and thats not to insult them, Tito was just on another level compared to them
Thats because Camacho and Whitaker were on their heels and surviving the whole fight. Tito still knocked down Sweet Pea twice and Camacho still hasnt gotten knocked out, not even in the middleweight division at 46 years old.
Margarito doesnt fight going back so Tito would stop him ala Campas. Margarito probably would get knocked out standing.
This ain't about Tony vs Tito. It's about Cotto vs Tito. If Cotto hit Tito with the shots that he hit Tony with he'd probably win the fight. Just watch the Oscar fight. The Cotto that faced Margarito would've done better than Oscar did that night. He'd make Tito look one dimensional, just like Oscar did.
Tito would tee off on Margarito and slip punches on the inside. This fight could still be made today and I would think it would be in the running for fight of the year. I still think Tito wins by a brutal KO. Tony may even cach Tito with a nice little upper cut and knock him down. But In the end Titos power would win if they signed to fight today. Prime Tito in 5 rounds. Now Tito in 8 rounds.
Cotto would be done as soon as Tito landed a punch. Cotto is smaller than shane. by 2 inches. Tito is much bigger than shane and cotto would get man handled by the blocked punches. Tito was moving 170lb Roy Jones's body around with those body shots. Cotto would be agonizing with every shot blocked or not.
Tito became a middleweight champ, these guys are good at 147 but they can't go any higher and be near the same fighter.
Tito would put both of these guys down today, screw a prime, they should make that money and make those fights and regardless of what you wanna say about someone being fat or washed up, I'll bet its one of the best fights of the year.
Tito couldn't even stop past their prime former lightweights, Whitaker or Camacho. Those two along with Oscar were the only two on Tito's resume that are on Cotto's level in terms of skill and ability. Everyone else he fought at Welter were B level or worse fighters. Tito has power, but that's the reason he's got so many KO's at 147 not to mention his loaded gloves.

I think Cotto took more out of Margarito then some on here realize. Margarito took a shit ton of punishment in that fight.
Cotto would have gotten knocked the **** out by a left hook by Tito in the 7th round, though. I've seen it in my dreams. Tito was that good at WW.

Also Tito had his great winning streak come to an end, people saw him hit his ceiling. That hasnt happened yet with Tony, so people dont have the hindsight point of view.
Tony is gonna hit his ceiling, too, probably sooner than later. After that we can compare their careers, but right now its tough to do.
Well what do you think? I think Cotto would have had Tito on his heals all night. Cotto performed hella better that night than Oscar ever has. And Oscar had Tito all befuddled. Cotto would have did him worse.
I think putting Cotto and Margarito on a higher pedestal than De La Hoya and Trinidad is definitely overdoing it. Cotto vs Tito is a weird style matchup, but Tito had a scary punch and Cotto really doesnt have amazing D.
Tito and Oscar, prime for prime, both whip Margarito. De La Hoya gets a clear decisions, Tito either stops him or gets a decision and causes a lot of brain damage.

you can't be serious about this. Cotto is a really good fighter but no way he beats prime Tito. I'm pretty sure this is just a bait thread cuz you can't be serious about this. Ridiculous.
What? I'm no English professor but I'm pretty sure an infant can articulate themselves better than that.
Shut up you crackhead alt account, nutt-hugging cock sucker
I wonder how many people cheato-trinidad wouldn't have ko'd if he didn't do illegal hand-wraps for almost every single fight he was in except the hopkins fight because bhop so nope, not pulling that shit with my son.
**** cheato-trindad, I prefer real puerto rican warriors like Cotto.

I don't know man, this Tito nuthugging is so ridiculous. Sad thing is, if you woulda asked the question of who woulda won this fight before Cotto fought Margarito, the majority of the votes would have been in favor of Miguel.
Nobody in their right mind would pick Miguel to beat a prime Trinidad
I honestly think that Vargas had a better chin that Cotto. He fought like a man against Tito who is a much bigger puncher than margz and stood toe to toe with him for 11 rounds untill he was alleviated from his senses....that beat down turned Vargas from the next best thing to damaged goods. Now look at cotto who spent the majority of his fight on the back foot against Margz who isn't a big puncher....now ask yourselves had Tito landed one of his trademark left hooks what would have happened to Cotto mentally if not physically? Think about it 12 rounds of constant pressure from Tito who is one of the hardest hitters in 147;b history. Any of you guys remember Prince Naseem Hamed vs Augie Sanchez? I'm sure the knockout tito would display would resemble that knockout.
Why does everyone overrate tito after his gift decision win over oscar, that one dude on this website has a tito gif image where tito looks extremly shocked that the judges even gave him the fight and he starts crying like a little baby.
I really believe tito even felt like he lost, the judges screwed oscar over because Oscar cheated the public by basically running arounf the ring the last 4 rounds. So the judges said **** you Oscar, and gave that shit to tito.
