    I was a bigger fan in the beginning when the sport combined more styles but the trend more towards striking has worried me.

    A couple of years ago when guys came to the gym to learn more hand skills I was happy to train them but when it went more upstairs work I stopped and refused because of the danger in the glove sizes etc.

      As everybody said, with a new trainer and a better conditioning Cotto's chances are there. Margarito still can knock him out, but till then the fight will be amazingly entertaining.
      I still will be rooting for Cotto, I can't stand a fighter who most of the fight only lands 20% of his punches.

        Sky-Net is rebuilding Cotto's frame and reprograming his CPU as we speak so he should come better prepared next time
        Regardless ,the terminator always get terminated at the end of the movie.

            I wrestled for 11 years so I have to agree with a dislike towards a striking trend in MMA. But, as a wrestler its nice to see other wrestlers have an opportunity for life after highschool/college/etc....

            But, back to the point. An immediate rematch needs to be something that Cotto doesn't even consider. Take some time, fight 1 or 2 fights against quality opposition, and then think about coming back at Marg.
