Miguel Cotto Starts Training For Margarito

[Burner]

You got your boy badly overrated, holmes. It's like you don't even know Miguel Cotto as a fighter or something.. He sounds good as a fantasy though.

He doesnt even factor in Margs chin and workrate....Cotto is known for taking rounds off...Marg will make him pay...It sucks though because I wanted to see an undefeated Cotto-Floyd matchup...looks like I'll settle for Mayweather-Margarito.

I think Cotto could win this fight if I thought he could take Margs punches but I dont think he can and will be brutalize as a result.

Did anyone notice Margarito just laughing at Cintrons punches...seriously....what will a blown up Junior Welter do to a guy who could be fighting at middle weight.

Hey..I just posted pure facts.

Hey..I just posted pure facts.

cotto is a natural welterweight that's a fact.

margarito has a iron chin yes,but he's weak to the body 3 of his kd's has been body shots imagine with a monster like cotto.that's a fact


cotto could be hurt true...but he only had 1 KD in his career and it look more of a pushdown...after his hurt he duck punches.that's a fact


so i don't think ur being objective at all.

Yeah the vegas crowd may not be pro Cotto though.

The crowd will be nothing but Red white and green

you can be sure about that!!! and include me in that crowd with a mexican flag!!!!! It's about time cotto steps out of new york and gets to fight in an environment where he doesnt have the crowd in his favor.

Believe I know what you're talking about. It's just too bad we have to wait 2 and 1/2 months debating these things. Like I said before; this situation is borderline ridiculous. I'm just going to lay back on fight night and calmly and cooly watch Cotto get ripped to shreds. This fight is a pure setup. No brainer.

nothing is sign yet.

Miguel is training as a preventive training, which means that IF he sign, he will not to far back in training. that all. but we have to keep our fingers cross.

cotto's the class, margarito will compete valiantly in a losing effort. no controversy, just shock at the potential relative ease in the manner that cotto boxes and times margarito to death.

just not a good match up for margarito at all. when you fight a guy whos faster, worlds smarter and stronger than you ... you and your supporters suffer.

you're already wrong and still thinking cotto is fighting gomez. lol and you're also wrong cotto is not the stronger guy margarito is the bigger stronger guy. styles make fights you obviously dont know that. lmao at ANYBODY that thinks cotto is this superior boxer and will just be relaxed in there outclassing margarito lol

The possibility of a De La Hoya match up came after Cotto and Margarito were set on course. You are using 20/20 hindsight.

very true

I have to admit from a promoter's standpoint this seems odd
Promoters want to make money from their fighters while taking them to the top but Arum is taking a big risk facing off two of his big dogs. If either guy comes out of this with their fighting status diminished it could be costly for their career's and costly for Arum too.

Look at it from Margarito's perspective: He legitimately loses this fight he is out of a belt, rematch with Cotto would be doubtful,beaten twice recently, and his ability to get big money fights gets knocked down a couple notches, Arum would lose a lot of money

Cotto gets beat he will probably have a rematch clause, He may lose out on the golden boy or Mayweather down the road Arum could lose a lot of money

interesting.....
