Cotto will outbox Margaritto until he gets hit flush

[freedom213]

If marg hits cotto and cotto isnt hurt by the shots like he was in their 1st fight i think it would prove that his wraps were loaded. but, if marg can hurt him it doesn't necessarily prove that marg's wrap were not loaded the 1st time around. what if the extra weight makes up for any tampered wraps? he'll be able 2 focus more on training 4 strength as opposed 2 cutting weight. especially seeing as how his style revolves around him just being a big, strong, pressure fighter with a good chin and lots of heart.

I just think if cotto can't get marg's respect, the pressure is gonna get 2 him in the end.

Margarito will do nothing new, pressure, pressure, pressure. He will eat punches like candy but I suspect this time Steward will keep Cotto off the ropes, keep him from fighting to Margarito's strengths and have him set down on his punches more. Not sure how successful this will be and how long Cotto can keep it up but I do think the Margarito that fought Cotto in 08 was a different beast. He was at his pinnacle at that point and was monstrously big for that division. I am one of those people who also think that more than likely Margarito was indeed packing plaster for some time. The damage he was able to inflict just doesnt add up when you look at the type of punches he landed not just on Cotto but on many of his opponents. I hope Margarito isnt shot to pieces now but that beating he took from Pac was massive.
