    I voted winner of Cotto Margarito but I'm left feeling dirty. Osca's now in the position where he's largely getting this on his name not ability. He was lucky enough to have Mayweather rematch on the cards and that's off, perhaps someone else deserves a shot at most likely Cotto.

      Win or lose, Margarito would give DLH the best possible fight out there. Cotto is boring and would move away from DLH all night. Cotto with his youth would win a boring decision. Marg DLH is the only fight that looks good, but I'm sure everyone would rather watch a lame Cotto DLH fight.

        Probably Miguel Cotto.. that way it makes the Mayweather v. Cotto fight even bigger and there is more of a demand.

          dlh vs cotto would generate more money than dlh vs margarito,
          it's tough, i think margarito is gonna win, and things would get tougher;
          if cotto loses he should fight williams and get a crack @ the WBO title

          cotto vs mosley II is another option
          dlh vs margarito

            You havent watched a Cotto fight have you? He is a pretty exciting fighter and DLH would be the one running. WHy would cotto fear a boxer who is an older shell of his former self?

            First off he would knock out DLH and the only person giving a boring decision fight wouldve been mayweather. All he has ever produced with anyone who is at his skill level is a boring decision fight.

                I would say take on Mora for September then if he wins take on Cotto-Margarito winner in December for his final woohaaa to end his career.

                    Damn you either have high expectations for what an exciting fighter should be or you haven't seen him fight. Because by no means would really anybody think Cotto to be a boring fighter.
