Some of you guys have gone off topic, I expected this to happen as this board is full of clowns, but for the others who have helped thanks a lot.:boxing:
Margarito has been hit by very strong punchers and has take their best, Cotto on the other hand has been rocked by smaller guys, but he always manages to come back stronger and better. This is why this fight is so exciting can't wait!!!
I think Margarito will win in a close fight, either way this fight should be a war and the man who wins will have earned much respect and WW supremacy.
CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
U need to give credit to cotto, I have to say I didn't like him much a couple years ago, but I have come around to like his style. The man flat out loves to box and never complains, This is a great warrior quality always going forward and attacking. This is why this next fight will be great, two true warriors best of the best Mexico vs PR, what more can we ask for? I don't know about you guys but I can't wait and I hope we get the fight of the year when this is all done because we are sure in for a monster fight.
p.s
Coming from Mexican decent I am rooting for Margartio, but I respect cotto for taking this fight and for being a true warrior.
p.p.s
I also vote "YES" on the poll because any fighter can get hurt.
That might be a bad match-up for Cotto given his situation...He needs a confidence builder type of fight before he fights the likes of the Elite at 147. You're trying to rush him into something he might not be ready for (mentally not ready)
I understand this would be a bad match for Cotto now, I would also like to see him fight a nice tune up fight first and then get him back in the big picture.
did you make your bet?
HUH?
thats fine, but cotto should still be rated over williams based on his previous fights in my opinion. i think a double header should be set up with margarito fighting judah or clottey winner and williams facing cotto to set up a fight with the winners down the road. if will and marg come out winners they should go at it for the undisputed welter crown
I know I am just dreaming but it would be nice if we had a tournament style elimination, kinda like Tito Trinidad had a few years ago with other top WW.
Same night fights:
Margarito vs Winner
Paul Williams vs Miguel Cotto
The Winners advance to a WW unification super bout for all the belts.
I really don't think Williams can impose his will on Cotto like Margarito did, If this fight ever gets made I believe Cotto can pressure Williams and handle his shot better. I don't see a Cotto KO Williams, but I see him winning a UD.
I would love to see him in there with Collazo, The loser of the Clottey-Judah fight, or even Cintron. I dont think Cotto or his team will but him in with some bum though...Let him a fight a named opponent and he will be back on track.
Hmmmmm. A Cotto vs Cintron would be an interesting tune up for Cotto, I think its risky if he gets caught with a big power shot from Cintron it might backfire don't you think? Its boxing anything can happen.
Man, this thread has turned out pretty damn good. Respectful, and good insights.
Who thought that this was possible.....
That's what should happen when you talk boxing Its a great sport for everyone all this racist bullshit you see on NSB is getting very old. It is good to see a group of knowledgeable people in this thread.
Cotto!! He will hit that body all day long... I can see Cotto KOing Williams. Williams cant take the same clean punching that Margarito ate for lunch.
I have not really followed Williams fights but is his chin like Margaritos? Can he handle Cottos power for 12 rounds and not get KO'd ?
This fight would put Cotto back in the WW picture if he wins it.
the 500, 300, and 100 our sold out. it well be a sell out come july 26th. YOu should have went on ebay this guy couldnt make it and sold his 500 tickets for a little over 300 ea :nonono: i'll be there bro who u rooting for!
My money is on Margarito, I will be making a good size bet if I can find a place who can give me 2-1 or 3-1 odds...
Margarito ha sido incluso mejor p4p?
Que le ha golpeado?

LOL, damn that is a horrible translator you use:popcorn:
I was about to make a very big size CASH bet, but I got some great advice here and will make a smaller bet(about 2g's) only if I get 2-1 odds or better for Margarito.
Count me in
I will also be at the fight with a small entourage, maybe we should plan an after party? :boxing:
p.s: I will be staying at the Mandalay bay casino.
I agree to a degree.........
Marg fought a great fight........
and deserves the accolades he recieves.....
but he is fighting midgets........
when he fought santos who is a guy as big as marg....
santos beat him twice......
he needs to move up in weight class to show what he's really made of.....
a one dimensional fighter against midgets dosent make for a great fighter......
The same can be said for Paul Williams he is even bigger than Margarito, yet no one says shit about him.
Very nice, Cotto gave Margarito all the credit told the press he tried everything from plan A-B-C-D and nothing worked, they also asked him how come he didn't go to the body more, and he told the press "We tried, I just couldn't" the man made no excuses a true class act mad respect for a true warrior.
A lot of you guys can bash me and tell me I am fucking crazy, but this is boxing were anything can happen yes the odds are that Cotto will take this and I know he is a superior boxer, but in the ring nothing is a guarantee Its a toss up and I will take the gamble. For the right odds that is. :boxing:
