      Payback... when Cotto beats cheato Ill be coming back here and see cheato's supporters making excuses saying that cheato was never the same after Pac beating. The funny thing is that before the Pac fight he tried to drink hydroxycut to get an extra edge & when they got caught they came prepared with coffee.

      Nothing proves more that margarito cheated when he was interviewed in HBO 24/7 for the Pac fight... margarito said... WHEN I BEAT PACQUIAO THE WORLD WILL SEE THAT I DIDN'T CHEAT IN MY PREVIOUS FIGHTS

        Margarito is done.

        This will come down to stamina, conditioning, and gameplan.

        If Cotto can box for 12 rounds, he wins a clear UD.

        Margarito is nothing special at all, I do not see the buzz about him. His advantage is pressure, but he is slow and unskilled, and has not had any ko power since Mosley.

            Only problem is power. Margarito was exposed by Mosley and of course the loaded gloves which was the reason Pac jumped all over the POS.

            Margarito is done and even though Cotto isn't the same, he should be able to outbox him to a decision. The lack of plaster/power will be noticed.

              You may not understand . because of the controversy which has developed about the possible illegal handwraps in their last fight, this returnespecially now that Cotto is a champion, will arouse huge interest, And the "name of the game" is MONEY. Arum is doiing the right thing for his fighters, and will make them both a lot of money. Whatever he makes is no0t made for himself but for Top Rank, which has many employees who will be involved with this promotion. It's a huge promotional company, and Arum is not even the CEO. He acts as the spokesman, because he's so well known, has all his wits about him, because he is still capable of being involved, and he was the founder anyway.

              He's entitled.

                Does it really matter?

                Edit: If you don't have Showtime, I can then see the problem. If it is PPV...Then I ask again, why does it matter?

Even if he loses again. At least he will then know Margarito is the better man. He said it already he wants Margarito and Pacquiao again before he retires so if the mans wants to avenge his loss, why not let him. This guy damn nearly ended and ruined Cotto's career in one night with alot of controversy behind it that he had loaded gloves, so this has alot of meaning behind it.

                  Both Cotto and Margarito have been in several wars over the past 3-4 yrs and both received a brutal beat down from pacquiao so we cant really say one has an advantage there.
                  I've just sent in a similiar post. I think that only you and I really understand what the core reason for this fight is.

                    I don't understand your "reasoning"...... All Margarito is saying that beating Manny P. will shoe everyone that he doesn't cheat. He was not penalised for cheating but because "the buck stopped with him". AND all they could present was that the padswere used instead of new. AND all they could present about the pads was that it contained TRACES of 2 (TWO) components which are found in plaser-of-Paris. AND all the reports also said, that the SAME components are found in MANY other items, especially COSMETICS......

                    So what the hell have all you ign orant clods been frothing at the mouth over. Wanting to see Margarito dead, and paralysed and who knows what el

                    You guys are nuts, and I sincerely hope, that NONE of you ever serve on a jury.

                    If they have an intelligence test beforehand, NONE of you ever will. You're all rabid lunatics, not sportsmen at all...... definitely NOT.

                    And I don't even give a tinker's damn about Margarito. I'm an objective observer. He hasn't the skills to be able to beat a guy like Cotto.

                      Both Margarito and Cotto are DONE! This is what makes this fight much more intriguing. We also have payback/redemption attached to it. I am soooo going to this fight.
