Would Margarito be a bigger challenge for Miguel Cotto?

[K-Nan]

For the June 9th fight, would it be expected for Antonio Margarito to give Miguel Cotto a better fight than Zab Judah? Would Tony beat Miguel? Opinions?

I think both fighters would be a heavy challenge.


edit:

For different reasons..

Antonio is a blueprint to Cotto's success. His long, lean body is an open target. It's not as if he'll pull a Malignaggi on Cotto; he can't dance away. I think he would go out ala Quintana.

i think regardles it would b a good fight, but yea zab is more challenin margrito aint all that the way people seem to say things bout him.. cotto got this regardless

Yeah he would, Judah isnt gonna pose much of a new problem to Cotto. He is going to stay away like quintana, and Cotto is going to cut off the ring and get to him. Judah isnt any bigger than cotto either. In fact at 5'7" they are both a little short. And while i do think Judah will do a better job of staying away then quintana, did I dont think he will be able to absorb as much punishment either

Margarito on the other hand could be another life and death fight as Margarito is in Cottos face all night probably getting popped but landing some big shots too, ala Torres.

Margarito is a slower puncher, an easier opponent to counter for Cotto. His body will be there the whole time, and he'll be able to fight how he does the best: Toe to Toe. Cotto would get moved on by Zab, and wouldn't get these oppurtunity's. He also couldn't conceivably counter Zab. He'd have to be aggresive, which would be hard, considering his footwork in comparison to Zab's.

[Pugilistic™]

judah is more of a challenge than margarito.

clottey kinda exposed margarito and now people don't really think much of him.

a fight against margarito for cotto would still be a great fight though

Margarito 12 rounds without punching even if hes getting hit (Clottey fight)
Judah once he gets tag and wobbles he has no choice than to act like little kid. Sure Judah has punchers chance with glass chin Cotto but Margarito is a durable guy I think he has better chance of beating Cotto.
