    COTTO-MARGARITO would have been a better fight then COTTO-MOSLEY

    IMO. thoughts? Mosley-Cotto is still gonna be outstanding, but the action wont be NON-STOP like it would have been with Margarito.

    Everybody Cotto faces in big fights is a clincher. its definetly a coincidence but still, its annoying. Malignaggi clinchced a ton, judah clinch a ton, mosley will undoubtedly clinch as well. Cotto-Hatton was in discussion... Margarito wouldnt clinch, which is another reason

        It would be a higher action fight, for sure, but I don't know if it'll be better. Cotto needs to take forward steps to silence the haters, and fighting Margarito after he got embarassed by Williams would do nothing for his "legacy".

          If you want to watch an all-offense, limited skill fight then it would be. Cotto is a decent boxer to go along with his power, same with Mosley except he's a good boxer. I'd rather watch a boxing match that takes skill and intelligence instead of boxers seeing who can take more punches than the other. Margarito is entertaining, but he'll never be more than a good slugger. I'll take the boxing match over the brawl. Just my preference.

              I understand it would be a better fight... but why does Margarito deserve a shot at Cotto??? Didn't he just get OWNED by P. Will? The fight I watched he did, I couldn't believe Marg thought it was close... The "SuperFight" was the much better choice for the casual boxing fan, Mosley is a name that can still be recognized.

                yea this is obviously what i meant.

                I by no means think Cotto should now take the fight, but had Margarito beaten Williams i think we'd be watching a more exciting fight in november.

                Mosley-Cotto is undoubtedly a much bigger fight though

                  probably that would be cotto's next fight after mosley if he loses,
                  cotto vs margarito, if he wins we prob. gonna see either cotto vs de la hoya
                  or cotto vs mayweather if mayweather wins

                    How the hell can some of you say that Margarito got owned and embarased by Williams??? you guys must of not seen the fight because it was Williams the one that got more of a beating then Margarito, Yes Williams outpoined him but by no means did margarito get owned or Embarased.
