    I think Vasquez Marquez 3 was a better fight.

        those taps sure made margo's head snap back and pause for a moment each time.

I can't pick one over the other...well if you want to just talk about the fight...I can honestly say the marquez/vasquez fight was a better all out war with both fighters taking bombs constantly where you didn't know who was going to win! The margarito fight was just as good but about after the 7th round it wasnt a fight the like the vasquez fight. Margarito was pulling away and started to beat the **** out of cotto. Hands down though the atmosphere in the MGM this past saturday is something i'll never forget!!!!! IT was awesome!!!!!! Just the fight itself though i go with vasquez/marquez being better but as an event, a rivalry, the emotions, the atmosphere the cotto/tony fight was off the hook!!!!
          I second that, simply amazing crowd.

            To me Margarito-Cotto was the better event, but Vazquez-Marquez III was the better fight. I wouldn't argue with either choice though.

              I know it is all opinions, But i like Cotto-Marg more, I dunno why. Anyone else?

              Im partial to Vasquez-Marquez, but Margarito isn't far behind. If it comes down to these two for fight of the year I think Cotto-Margs will win it based on the popularity of the welterweight division. If that happens I wouldn't have any complaints. On a side note.....boxing has put together some really great matches the last two years, lets hope the trend continues.

                Maybe if I saw it live and felt the drama. Knowing the outcome took a lot away I'm sure. Either way it's close imo.

                  I suppose it would have been better if i had said "prefered Cotto-Margarito", I ain't trying to say Vasquez-Marquez 3 wasn't good, There is just something about Cotto-Margarito that I, personally, prefer.

                  I can understand people disagreeing though.

                    Marquez vs Vasquez 3 was a better fight but Cotto vs Margarito was a more exciting fight because of the event and the build up to it.Its not all that often that big ppv fights turn out to be really good like that.Most of the time its just a huge build up then a huge let down or average at best.

                      you know what i mean tho, it wasn't a blazing war, when one fighter backpedals like that its always a boring fight. I don't blame Cotto for doing it, Margarito was too big to trade with but it ruined the spectacle until the later rounds.
