    Cotto would win a Margarito Rematch

    I believe Cotto would win a rematch with Margarito, round 1-6, he was clearly outboxing Margarito with his countering, it was only when he became tired he was unable to counter effectively or even answer back appropriately to Margaritos' onslaught.

    Cotto will know that he cannot hurt Margarito next time and will focus on outboxing him rather than trying to hurt him. Cotto needs to work on his stamina, to match margarito and adjust his gameplan where he plans to purely outbox Margarito and his rope defence which is better than average! Margarito has never adapted, Cotto does.

    If they make it a 6 round no title special attraction fight and agree that Margarito can't hit Cotto's body it'll happen.

      Margarito would finish him faster in the 2nd fight... he knows now that Cotto cant really hurt him. It would look a lot like how he beat Cintron the 2nd time.

        If you watch HBO's Cotto Greatest Hits, this wasn't the first time that Cotto was in serious trouble in a fight. Corley, Judah, and Ramirez all have stunned Cotto at 140lbs. No one ever questioned Antonio's chin before the fight.

        Cotto has been fighting smaller 147lb fighters that started their career at about 135 lbs. Margarito "The punching machine" was the first full-sized 140lb fighter he's fought. He was exposed, just a little too small to fight these bigger guys.

        Cotto should fight Cintron, who would help to prepare him for a Margarito re-match in 2 years.

          Cotto SHOULD have won this fight, but he's not the great fighter his fans made him out to be. Not sure how you lose to a slow plodder who only fights one way

            Good point! In the 1st round notice Margarito didn't know what to expect of Cotto's power. When he later found out he couldn't hurt him, what happen??

              Very True!

              Next Time Margarito Will Ko Cotto Faster!!!

                the thread starter is an idiot. cotto ran danced circled ran some more, basically all he did was box and this guy thinks next time he should box more and try to hurt tony less? all he did was run and box what fight was this guy watching?

                    Cotto is ruined.A rematch would be even a quicker KO for Margarito.
