    Just saw Margarito Clottey again

    How can anyone think that Margarito can beat Cotto is beyond me. Margarito's defense is horrible he can't slip a punch and his body completely open. He squares himself up when he throws combinations and can easily be countered. He is slow and throws a lot of punches with nothing on them.

    Clottey beat him the **** out of him for the first four rounds and Margarito/Cotto is going to look like the third round over and over again until Margarito can't take no more and goes down.

        Thank YOU!!..

        I just mentioned that in another thread..saying that clottey was landing flush like crazy with double & even Triple left hooks...

        Margo swings too wildly..and sweeping and looping hooks..

        Cotto's arms are too short..and will make it to Margo's ribs and jaw way before Margo connects..

          how anyone could give clottey the first 2 rounds can only be explained by there hate for a mexican bad ass.

            I agree and I'm surprised how many people think this fight could go either way. It may not be an easy fight for Cotto but I have no doubt at the end of the night it will be clear who the better fighter is.

              I agree with you that Margarito's defense isin't the best, but just because he wasn't dominante on that fight deosn't mean he'll get man handle by cotto.!!!

                  I remember watching this fight with a friend, we were calling Margarito a bum, how can a guy be a pro let alone a champ and be so slow.
