Antonio Margarito: "I'm going to put unbelievable pressure on Miguel Cotto"
You would imagine that the worst is over for WBA Welterweight Monarch Miguel Angel Cotto, who ended his lengthy tours promoting his next defense for July 26th at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas, Nevada, against Tijuana’s human-tornado Antonio “El 7 Mares” Margarito signaling insatiable preparations for the man from Caguas, Puerto Rico, and a fulfilling demand to get the most out of a very challenging situation.
Miguel knows what’s at stake besides his unblemished professional record. For Cotto, it’ll be the chance to not only vie for a people’s vote to par-excellence being the best welterweight, it can plausibly sway in his favor others that hold that spot for Floyd Mayweather, JR.
Cotto, had some words in preparation, saying: “When we put two warriors of our devise to fight, it’ll be a real crystallized fight for real.” Facing the reality that each day which passes gets closer for their super showdown.
This’ll be Cotto’s fifth defense of his WBA Title, but more importantly, without the politics of boxing, he should have been long on his way to the better half of undisputed welterweight champions by virtue of him having beaten Carlos “El Indio” Quintana (the current WBO Welterweight Champion) winning by a knockout in the fifth, and ironically, the guy that the Moca native of Puerto Rico, Quintana beat last February for his title was Paul “The Punisher” Williams—whom incidentally Margarito lost to unanimously by last year.
Tony’s flair for the dramatics exudes confidence—a condensed measure of power and sustainability to pressure—controlled and steady, and whiskers that has never been questioned surmising to his great genetic makeup.
It’s an attribute Antonio prides himself in. One that he has every right to be much mindful of—and if you took in consideration that if you weren’t impressed with his last November’s blowout over Golden Johnson (TKO 1) in Madison Square Garden, then perhaps April’s crushing defeat over former IBF Welterweight Champion Kermit Cintron (KO 6) at Boardwalk Hall’s Atlantic City, convinces you. A penchant for Margarito is he keeps coming like a freight train, punching with conviction.
He looks at this fight pretty much as an adversarial medal count of Mexican boxers versus those from the island of Puerto Rico, and has some virility to that. Puerto Rico has waged many championship bouts with neighboring Mexico.
Margarito, very excited to have his opportunity has said: “This is the fight I have always wanted!” He was explaining his happiness during a Tuesday news conference at Century City, adding: “This will be a great night for all Mexican fans. There is no way I will lose to Cotto.”
I remember words that Zab Judah had once said to Cotto on ESPN2’s broadcast before their initial Meeting, and Judah couldn’t get a response from him that he wanted, and therefore informed him what he was going to do.
I suppose Zab thought much in those patterns about him beating up Cotto, much to his own chagrin, detriments, or in having some regrets. Sugar Shane Mosley, highly regarded loyalist P4P elitist grinned at his choices of eight ounce gloves to beat Cotto with, and before you knew it, Miguel turned boxer, and proved to be a different fighter than expected.
The height of Cotto’s voice is explanatory in the sense that he says he’s fighting for the glory of all of Puerto Rico…something he’s as adamant about as in when
Felix “Tito” Trinidad did when he carried the banner. However, there’s some other attribute in him that is yet to be seen…hidden away from the eyes of the public that we have not seen, that’ll almost guarantee you that this fight will be like no other that you’ve seen Miguel Cotto fight in.
It is what avid film collectors and writers call the “uncompromising isosceles into the unknown,” where unexpected things happen; and where we gave our analysis to the outcome as rational as we possibly so thought; or been shell-shocked or stunned as in an afterthought.
There’s an undiluted truth to all of this. Antonio Margarito affirms he’ll put unbelievable pressure on Cotto, and demonstrate to him that he’s a complete welterweight. The despairing sequence, or innate belief, is that Margarito believes Cotto is the smaller guy—perhaps, but if Margarito’s larger confidence booster chiefly depends on size as he abundantly stated to the presses that he isn’t preoccupied by Cotto’s punch—although a bigger question for him may be is how does he know without sampling such drive and ruthlessness?
There has been an indication that Miguel has other members of his camp for enforcing changes in preparation for this particular fight, but wouldn’t comment whether his uncle Evangelista Cotto will be there or not.
The real boxing gods have smiled an unsubtle oasis upon us. In times of hurricane and tornados, Margarito-Cotto represents all the magic in center ring to commemorate every abrupt happening nature unleashes.

i kinda suspect that cotto will win ud but i voted cotto by tko in case margarito presses the issue to much. although he hasn't been seriously hurt in a fight, there have been instances where he was hurt a little bit thus showing that he is human and can go down. if anyone can stop him in the welterweight division, its the human wrecking ball cotto.Comment
