    Should margarito vs cotto still happen?

    I think so. I give toney all the credit for not being like every other boxer and taking the money and losing the belt just to fight for a big payday. He took on the mandatory and the guy that had been calling him out for years instead of chasing money in a cotto fight. If margarito would have started even just 1 or 2 rounds earlier he would have clearly won that fight maybe even by tko wiliams was the only fighter feeling the effects of being in a fight. Either way i think toney and cotto should still go down i think it would be a great fight between two guys that love to come forward. I think toney would take this one i hate that people are trying to discredit margarito now. I said that williams fight would be tougher then a cotto fight. Williams would give any fighter trouble i dont see cotto beating him either especially with those short arms and no chin. Im sure alot of those punches landed on margarito would have wobbled cotto, and by what i have seen maybe even dropped cotto. Margarito is being robbed of respect and credit for this fight. He is a great fighter and has a chance to win againts anybody in the ring. If he gets this fight with cotto wich is still in the talks i think margarito will show everyone how good he really is.

    I'd rather Cotto fought Williams then the winner of that fight the winner of Hatton vs Mayweather.

      Is it fair to put Cotto or any other Welter-weight against Paul Williams(he has longer reach the vitali and wlad klitscko for christ sakes, and paul's a freaking welter-weight). Though paul williams is weak and maybe thats his disadvantage. But I can't see any welter-weight getting passed his long reach.

        But then that leaves margarito out of a well deserved shot at a real title. but those 4 do make sense since those are all undefeated.

          Margarito deserves a shot and will get one.He could fight one the victors of those fights.

            exactly other then the weight its like fighting a freaking heavyweight with speed and movement. Thats why i hate people are trying to discredit margarito for losing this fight. Margarito gave williams all he could handle and would have walked out of there a champ still if he had just one the last round. If he would have started a round or two earlier we wouldnt be having this discussion and we would be talking about cotto vs toney

                Fair or not hes there for people to fight, I think hed be a great opponent for Hatton,Mayweather or Cotto. Theyd have to find a way past his long reach.

                  I didn't make up that arm reach advantage too. Boxrec has Paul Williams arms longer then wlad and vitali's.
