Comments Thread For: Photos: Cotto and Margarito Go Face To Face in PR

[spyvsspy]

Margarito by KO .. again this time legally .. Cotto gasses out towards the end of fights , while Tony gains strength as things go on , and his chin is brick hard.

I can tell what end of the IQ bell curve you're on by this post.

**** is going to be wild...can't effin wait.

Can't understand how guys say Cotto looks huge...looks more like an oversized suit more than anything.

I don't know who's going to win yet, all I do know is that I anticipate this fight is going to be greater than the original. Its one of those rare matchups where the style contrasts and the genuine rivalry makes a compelling fight, no matter where they are at in their primes

No way I can expect this fight to be better than the first. They'll both bring it, but I just can't picture that good a fight happening.

Why the hell does Margarito have the Pacquiao look?

He wants to be like his new hero

So you can gather that information based off of a square off?

Lol I know right??? Idiot lol

I hope Cotto smashed this cheaters face in!!!!!!!!!! its not about him being mexican. True boxing fans look past that and see cheato is a smack ass butt pirate.

Why doe Tony always look like he is a drug lord for the cartel in Mexico lol anyway I see this fight of two once great champions at the end of there careers or crossroads where the loser should hang it up because I doubt that after the loss and beating they are gonna take they will only be fighting in there respectful countries or used as stepping stones. My pic for this fight has to be Tony unless cotto can finish him early

Margarito is the biggest looking lop besides chavez jr.

In the first fight, it was really supposed to be another step up fight against a rugged opponent that Cotto with all his skills should have walked away with a comfy UD as he preps for the big $$.

It was also supposed to be a chance for Margarito to hit the big stage, where he's had good wins and good fights, but no shining moment.

It was really meant to amp up Cotto for PPV greatness and ended up shining on Margarito

Fast forward 3 yrs later, controversy and ass whuppings later, now its about Cotto trying one last grasp of going back to the pathway he was embarking on before being derailed and Margarito trying to prove he's not a habitual cheat and that his best win of his career is legit.

Its essentially a lose and hang em up fight, I can't conclude no other way that this fight won't be better than the original. Both guys with everything to gain and everything to lose just by this one fight.

Now in 2008, Cotto was a bit more reckless and more of an animal, and he'll be a bit more controlled and pacing himself, but Margarito is still Margarito. I can't ****ing wait, I'm hyping myself up just thinking about watching another war, live this time. **** Vegas!

yup...there will those that will take the elitist stance and say that both fighters are irrelevant or not as relevant as before, but **** it...i LOVE a good grudge match...this place should be heated by November

I bet all my points that this fight will be more entertaining than Floyd - Ortiz by a wiiide margin.
