    according to Cotto's camp, the times he'd been hurt were mostly due to having to drain himself for weight. examples being the Corley and Torres fights. i doubt he would be able to handle a well placed hook from Margo though. I see Cotto gettin hurt at least once this fight.

      If Cotto gets hit flush multiple times from Margarito, it's more than likely, he'll go down.

        Don't rule out the Cotto body shot though!
        Can one of Margaritos followers tell me how well he takes body shots???

          he takes them pretty well, but never from Miguel Cotto.

            Judah proved that wasn't the only reason he got hurt in those fights. There is a ***** or two in that armor upstairs.

            EDIT: Are you ****ing kidding me? The starred out part was the racial slur for the Chinese, although obviously not being used in that manner.

                margarito is a BIG welter.mosley clocked him good a few times. mosley made the mistake of not throwing more uppercuts.
                margarito has devioustating uppercuts.
                figure cottos speed and footwork helps keep him safe.
                both get stronger in later rounds.
                looking forward to this one.
                winner better get floyd. not mosley/judah

                  Good analysis. Margarito's uppercut is a big key for him. There are too many factors for me to make a strong prediction. I'll just look forward to watching it.

                    I think Margarito's power is very overrated, hes a strong guy that will wear you down, but id say someone like Zab Judah was more dangerous than Margarito because he can put you out with one punch. The punches that put you out are the ones you dont see coming, and Miguel will be able to see Margaritos from miles away. Miguel just has to be ready for a long fight, i dont think he has to worry about getting knocked out.

                      Margarito just doesn't have the speed to hit Cotto flush on the chin his punches are too wide, I wouldn't be surprised if the fight turns out to be Cotto blowout.
