    Then you go on to compare resumes and past opponents here

    and here. lol.

    Then you claim your not comparing them again. lmao.

    we're not comparing two fighters here, but we're trying to figure out who would do better against a third fighter.
    What? 'You wanna compare DLH and PBF''.

    But next line

    ''We are not comparing two fighters here''

    What you talking about, oh, you contradicted yourself.....Again.

    Dont you compare the two fighters to find out who would do better against a third?

    Yep thats right, as shown above, your whole arguement contradicts itself the whole way though.

    And you STILL cant give me the name of the guy Margarito fought who supposedly

    'fights like Cotto'

    Seriously kid, give it up,

    Game over.

    lol

      People keep talking about how durable Margarito is but he has a ****ty ass defense. Zab has the better defense and will avoid more punches and not take the cleaner punches.

        If I were Miguel Cotto's manager there is NO chance I would put him in the ring against Zab Judah unless the fight was either absolutely necessary or very profitable. If Judah brings his A-game, he will give Cotto a boxing lesson, then everybody will say that Cotto has been "exposed." Judah brings nothing to the table. He doesn't have a belt nor does he have a large fan base. All Judah has is world class talent and a bad reputation.

        The risk is too high when the only possible chance for victory is when an opponent performs poorly. Whether Cotto wins or loses, this match is an inexcusable management blunder.

            you have to take risks. if not, then you're a ***** ala scott harrison.

            moreover, zab's chances are not that great in this fight, point taken on his strong suit i.e., speed, power and natural ability - but he'll fold after some minutes / rounds of punishment. its what he does.

            btw - on the topic, margarito would have proved to have been the bigger challenge for cotto.

                  The correct way to manage career is to take the toughest fights for the biggest paychecks. Usually it is the championship fights that generate the most fan interest, so obviously Judah is the kind of guy who only want to face when he is wearing a belt.

                  The keyboard commandos love to talk about taking risks largely because they have never taken any. In the real world only a fool takes a risk when there is little reward.

                    lol

                    Let me get this straight, you first said you thought Zab had a bigger chance of beating Cotto because of his level of opposition, you can correct me if I'm wrong. Through out 20 or so posts I tried to tell you that level of opposition wouldn't favor him since he hasn't done as well against punchers as Tony has. Then you questioned Tony's level of opposition. Then I told you its all about styles that matters for them to have an idea who would do better. Then you came back saying I'm contradicting myself, how pathetic I am, this and that and STILL avoid what's been discussed. Geez, I even tried to explain it to you at an elemental level, other people have come in and shut you up as well. Continue with the internet insults and arrogance mate, but we both know you got You want to know what a real comparison of two fighters records look like, check out guru's post.
                    LMFAO!!!! Comprende?
