Question about Margarito vs Cotto rematch (Warning boxing will be discussed here)

[El Protagonista]

This is a serious question. I'm not a Margarito hater and you can check my post history if you'd like. This is just an observation.

It's no secret that style wise Margarito was bad news for Cotto. After losses to Pacquiao and Margarito it's evident that Cotto doesn't do well against pressure fighters. My question is this:

Do you think Margarito will use the same strategy against Cotto that he used last time?

I ask because he took alot of punishment in his last fight with Cotto and took even more in the Mosley fight. If his chin is indeed cracked do you think he will use his usual style? It seems he was trying new things in his last fight with Garcia and I wonder if he's trying to change things up.

Obviously Cotto needs major adjustments to beat Margarito. He needs to learn to clinch and go to Margarito's body. Other than that he was boxing beautifully until he could no longer handle the pressure. However, do you think Mosley has made Margarito more cautious?

margarito will definitely do the same thing he did against cotto; yo, it got him his biggest W.

cotto's the one who needs to do things differently, specifically clinch and disrupt marg's forward progress.

he needs to stop being cute.

If anybody can teach Cotto how to clinch, it's E.S.

I think he wins a rematch

Nothing will change here with Margarito except maybe holding a higher guard like he did vs. Cintron. Cotto will never clinch because he doesn't want to fight like a *****. He can't go toe to toe either with the stronger man so he will likely try to box off the back foot again until he runs out of steam which could be even faster at 154lbs.

margo will preasure cotto and if he still has his punch resistance he will beat cotto again..cotto has to go to the body and clinch or he will gas out and get stopped

cotto corrects that erroneous way of thinking and he'll have a greater chance at winning this.

all boxers clinch - its a necessary evil.

Tony need to have same beard as before
he was effective since Cotto couldn't hurt him
if he can still take his shots, he pummel Cotto again
no need to change anything

I think Margarito will indeed use the same startegy he used for the 1st fight. Although he did take a lot of punishment in their 1st fight and in the Mosley fight I don't think that will make him change his style. As far as him boxing more in his last fight that was the gameplan. He came back in the ring from a horrible TKO loss and add to that his inactivity and he was facing a puncher. It was just precautions him and his team took.
