the casual fan would look at margaritos 5 loses and say EH i'll pass
Floyd need to come out of retirement and pound out marg
that would be a ill fight, poor cotto
Miguel was the more marketable fighter, and the fighter who more guys would be willing to fight.
Delahoya doesn't have the power to hurt Tony, nor the stamina to keep Tony off him. I would be shocked - SHOCKED - if Goldie took that fight.
Where does Miguel go now? the rest of the year off, and then a comeback vs David Estrada? And the long road back...maybe a Shane rematch? Or the Zab/Clottey loser? (The winner gets Tony).
He got overly confident with Cotto as his rising star, but still cashes in.
The question now is how long will Margo hang onto the belt until someone comes along and beats him?
Will he move up in weight or will he stay at welter and face Klottey who almost beat him?
dude, cotto was even closer to beating margarito, and cotto hits harder then clottey. cotto has better boxing skills and never fades. and margarito stopped him. margarito rolls through clottey. the only ones i see beating margarito is de la hoya and mayweather...berto vs margarito would be a war of uppercuts..that would be another fun one to watch.
Tony can get a rematch wit Clottey or Williams and most fans will be interested. Casual fans probably won't care much tho. Shane will probably step up after the Mayo fight. He usually never backs down from a challenge. Now that Tony beat the guy who beat him, he'll want it just like he does wit Mayo.
Arum just did a huge disservice to boxing. He took a budding superstar ready to carry boxing on his back and replaced him with an unmarketable fighter in Antonio Margarito.
Yeah, it really sucks when the best fight the best. Maybe Cotto should have fought Bruseles instead.
By "coward", do you mean the guy who ran all night, took a knee (twice!!), quit, and ran back to the locker room?
That guy?
Who ever thought Cotto would quit. What makes this Victory even better is that the fact Cotto fans called Mayweather a *****. Cotto got on his knees twice and quit. HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH
