    Comments Thread For: Margarito Has No Problem With a Direct Cotto Rematch

    Former three time welterweight champion Antonio Margarito (38-7, 27 knockouts) has no problem heading directly to a summer rematch with WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto (35-2, 28 KOs), assuming Cotto gets beyond a March 12, Showtime pay per view televised encounter with former world champion Ricardo Mayorga (29-7-1, 22 KOs). Margarito dethroned Cotto as WBA welterweight king with an 11th-round knockout in July of 2008.

    Marg suffered a fracture, I think it is highly ****** of him to take the Cotto fight without a tune up, why? A tune up will give him a good assesment of where the repaired orbital bone stands! That way he knows what he can get into, remember Cotto's power is the left hook, even though Marg has that iron chin, that area is not like that anymore in Margs face....

    If Marg injures his eye during the fight, its gonna be another lon punishing night for him, cuz he's not gonna quit, not see the punches, and get rocked by the left hook all night....

      Antonio Margarito can beat Miguel Cotto right now BUT if Cotto just BOX him he'll win easy. I would pay to watch them fight again.

        i think tonys broken orbital bone just adds to the storyline between these two.....but this fight is long overdue i cant wait for it !! the drama would be crazy if cotto re-breaks that bone in the early rounds though...damn!!

            If Cotto fights a smart fight he cant lose. Its that simple.

                This fight is a lose-lose situation. Bob would want to pair the winner with Pacquiao.

                    problem is cotto isn't really a boxer,he's more of a come forward guy,yeah he tried to box marg in the first fight but once guys start landing punches he starts to fade,it happened in pacquiao fight too and even with clottey..cotto once he starts getting hit starts running but i don't think he'll have much of a problem with margarito,the man hasn't looked good in his last three fights,took beatings in two of those three,now if cotto can't beat a guy like that easily,oh well...
