I think Margarito is completely done as an elite fighter. He has looked slow and terrible his last two fight. plaster has nothing to do with his hand speed and movement. He has never been a great boxer, but was alot faster and moved way better a couple of years ago. I think Cotto has a chance to beat his now. I think Tony will take all of cottos punches but hes soo slow now that I dont think he'll be able to catch cotto. Thoughts?

You know what bro, from what I understand Margarito is a great person, loves to sign autographs, take pictures with fans and everything, but what pisses me off about this guy is that he has the nerve to say he didn;t know about the wraps!! I mena for real? I know the topic is old, but no one can argue that he hasn't been the same since he got caught with that... He looked in the best shape of his life with Garcia, IMO thats all that changed cuz he's not any slower...

I think it's hard to judge. I mean a comeback fight after a year and a fight with Pacquiao isn't exactly the best way to showcase your skills.

is cotto still the same fighter he once was? Hell no! thats why the rematch will be as exciting like the first

He won his comeback fight against a bum in Mexico, which was a complete confidence booster made by his camp to get him back in the I can beat anybody mindset..

I was ignorant and thought he had a chance against Pac because of size and reach but I definetely was smart and put my money on Pac...

I gave him the benefit of the doubt about the wraps prior to his pacquiao fight. But I do have to admit that after he got caught, he really isn't the same. He use to hit guys and land with devastating power, and although he still packs power, he doesn't have that same impact behind it that you use to see. Maybe we need to see a few more fights to see where he's at. But he really isn't the same anymore.

Cotto is not an excellent boxer, what r u on crack??!! Cotto is an A class boxer bro, B class power, don't let ur opinions get in the way of reality.

No on the other hand, Margarito has a A++++ chin, C class boxing skills and applies preassure....

All that being said, Marg is not the same since getting caught, everyone knows that!

IMO, Cotto wins by UD in the rematch...

I'll be standing by for your excuses after the match...

**The MiZ** · 01-17-2011, 04:25 PM

since he got caught with the plaster, his punches lack power. LOL his a cheat and always will be a cheat. I hope cotto kills him

No excuse, but Margarito is not the same anymore!!!!
