    I Think Cotto and Margarito were Both Robbed

    There definitely should have been a four part 24/7 series....I no Margarito doesn't speak English but they could of interpreted like they did for the countdown.(or subtitles would have been fine.)


    Its unfortunate they will not get Full Exposer they both deserve...

    Since Money Mays retired they are the two top WW's. 1 and 2...right now.

    that would never have worked.
    Cotto has little personality and Marg cant speak english, and neither figher has enough of a fanbase to warrant a 4 part series.

        I hear what your saying but i think they should have made it anyways.
        Just to get a build bigger fan base for one or the other.

        The more your on the tube the more people notice you and remember you.

            No they do not, when you actually hear the words come out of someones mouth it is 1000% better for the audience. In selling a fight this is a huge difference. Also if they wanted to maximize exposure to this fight like you say, then it should not be on PPV because the audience will be way smaller on PPV then it would have been on HBO.

                I thought the one episode countdown was very good, what else is there to say that is interesting about either guy? I guess we could learn more about Cotto's issues with his baby mom's?

                    Doesn't Floyd have proprietary ownership of 24/7 with HBO?

                    I read something along those lines.

                    The thing with 24/7 is that there was drama in every episode in one way or another. Like it or not, Floyd made the show. Cotto & Margarito don't have or need the theatrics. This is a fight for boxing fans.
