    I agree with you. That would make the difference needed for Cotto to have a shot at Margarito.

      But that's not Briggs, that's another human.

        Roach will make Cotto do more Body work and lateral side stepping similar to how pacman used against diaz.

        Drop Evangelista.
        you got a point there, sounds good to me. cotto's uncle been with him since the begining so I think he should stay and cotto could get roach

          true but his uncle and him dont even Talk! what kinda relationship is that lol
          They dont even discuss strategy.
          Also Cotto lost because he laid on the ropes baiting margarito and then marg kept uppercutting him and broke his nose!

            Cotto fans care about him as much as Bush does the American Soldiers.

            He will smash him worse than he did Cintron the 2nd time.

            Sad.

              A REMATCH!!!!!!

              Hey Nuts Cotto will not going to win against Magarito....

                As I saw it, Cotto allowed Margarito to press the fight against him. Cotto back-peddled most of the time and should not have done so. If he reviews his fight strategy against Marg and makes the proper adjustments, I think he can out point Marg the next time. He needs to be more aggressive towards Marg and not give him the edge mentally and physically.
                Yeah I agree with you lady Fan,

                I my point of view is, Cotto has the chance to win that fight if he did not move backward the whole night. starting fron first rd he is very intimidated by Margarito that why he keeps on back-peddled until he was cough in the ropes. and I can see the power of Cotto if he fight toe-to-toe probably Magarito did not last for a 6 rounds.

                  Too many articles posted on this site that are little above the level of posts by fans of the fighters. Its fine to come down in favour of one fighter if thats what you say you are going to do, but it shouldn't be presented as a piece of objective journalism.

                  As for this particular one, Cotto might beat margarito in a rematch, but I don't see any reason to say that he should. He boxed pretty well as it was, and still lost, so to win he would have to box even better, which we don't know if he can do.

                    It's funny how people can just assume and talk out of their asses, even that writer is a freaking moron. Cotto fought perfectly, there was really not much he could of done differently to try to win this fight, people are quick to judge a fighters performance because they are on the outside looking in, they are not in there playing with fire. Even Cotto himself was humble and decent to admit he tried plan a, b, c & d and just couldn't find a way to beat Margarito, he was also being asked about why he wasn't able to go to inside and he simply said "I just couldn't find a way".

                    Some of you ****ers are questioning Cotto's footwork, how much better can he get? the guy was practically dancing around the ring and Margarito had a difficult time trying to cut the ring with him due to how well Cotto was moving and Margarito's lack of footspeed. People who criticize Cotto's performance are undermining his abilities and putting down Margarito as well. I really see no difference in a rematch, I think Margarito has the tools to beat a guy like Cotto, plus he has the mental advantage at this point.

                      Cotto has a chance of redeeming himself. It's not that far fetched. Some people here act like they have experienced 100 years of boxing and are the next great oracle of boxing....
