      I don't see Cotto doing anything different in the second fight to win than the great performance he put on in the first fight.

      I see it going very much the same, Cotto out boxing Marg for the first few rounds, then Marg imposing his will on him and KO'ing him in the later rounds.

      If Cotto decides to go to the body as many Cotto fans want, look for even a quicker KO because that will do nothing but set up Marg's upper cuts and bring Cotto into range where Marg wants him.
      Ehh, I don't know man. Have you watched Cotto's new training videos? I don't want to put too much stock into them, but it's clear that their working on rolling with punches and lateral movement.

      The biggest thing Cotto did wrong against Margarito the first time was back up in a straight line right into the ropes over and over again. This is something that can be fixed strategically. The only question is whether Cotto will have the legs to execute the game plan.

      That's why the rematch is still so intriguing to me.

        Hard to care about this fight. Happening 2 years too late. I mean when you watch two grown men made mince meat by a guy fighting in his 7th and 8th weight class respectively, it just loses some of the luster.

              Margarito is still dangerous. Cotto needs this win. Still a big fight to me.

                  Margarito is not dangerous, not in the least bit. If he somehow beats Cotto again, it just shows how limited Cotto is, and it ends any chance that he ever had at the HOF.

                    I too believe Margarito is about as shot as Oscar.
