[flint]

i hope cotto end this arrogant,dirty cheaters career.he is a disgrace to the sport and to our real mexican warriors. one things for sure thats its good to fight under a top promotional company because cheato continues to lose and gets title shots right after. money talks

It's only fair that it's in NY but I can understand if it gets moved to Vegas due to many things.

That's all he needs. Cotto isn't like Mosley who can clinch in order to no let Margarito gain any momentum and he's no were near as fast or as strong as Pacquiao. Segura still executes his gameplan when Capetillo isn't on his corner, their team knows excactly what to do. The question is what can Cotto do different in order to win? We saw how Mayorga even with a sloppy pressure did enough to make Cotto unconfortable. Margarito has the style to beat Cotto and nothing Cotto does will stop Margarito at 154.

If Cotto clinches smartly vice trading while on the ropes, he wins this fight easily by UD. If he choses to trade again, we might see the same outcome. I think Steward will have a better gameplan and Cotto will fight a much smarter fight. This is s till a tough fight for Cotto.

Cotto was boxing his head off for 6 rounds, if he swings less and grabs more he'll win easy. Margarito also didn't force Cotto into the ropes, yes he was coming forward but Cotto since round 1 sat down in them and his corner told him to keep doing it. As for Mayorga making Cotto uncomfortable... he did the same to Tito and Oscar it isn't like Mayorga is an easy fight for any fighter and Cotto still won 9 rounds to 3, two of which were gimme rounds. I'll keep this post in mind come fight night and bump it, Margarito has 7 losses for a reason and has ONE good win and its shrouded in controversy. Please, Margarito is nothing more than a moving punching bag, Cotto wins by decision and only loses 2 or 3 rounds max.

WARGARITO will smash Cotto to bits again. I can't see Cotto box and clinch for the whole 12 rounds, he'll eventually start trading and end up getting hurt again.

Nothing but hate right there. I hate Hopkins with a passion, but I still give him his dues. You guys need to get over the loss and just move on to what's coming. Another classic in the making.
