I talk to some people, and this marriage was cooking up since Cotto left his uncle. He and and Diaz know each other for quite a while now.

Also Diaz told Cotto, that this was Cotto's biggest fight, and a career defining, and if he somw how see Cotto halfassing things, hell just quit as a trainer.

Apparently Cotto respects this guy a lot and the guy is very serious!!

Part of the strategy apparently is a double jab, followed by a straight right down the pipe to the body, and the turn MArgo instead of moving backwards.


I hope this goes well!!

That is exatly what the gameplan needs to be. Hope that's true.

Good plan

I know what game plan this new trainer will instruct cotto to follow. Throw the jab son and move occasionally throw in some 1,2's combinations and get out of danger by using your fast feet.

I'm more confident in this new trainer as I read more and more. A month ago I was 50/50 on the fight. Yesterday 40/60 Mar. Now I'm feeling 90/10 Cotto, I can't explain it I just feel confident Cotto wins it impressively.

Diaz also made Cotto takes his shoes off, so he could field the height diference and stuff


This diaz dude looks like he is very smart and knows his stuff. Lets see how he handles the big stage!!!

I really think ist a good move from cotto ! Diaz is a good trainer! he will make cotto work hard

The only way Cotto can win is if he out runs Margo and Jabbing going away.

Margo will be on him all nite long and crush the poor thang.

I think a bigger factor here is weather Cotto is able to hurt Margarito a few times in this fight. If he is able to then Margarito will be a little hesitant in pressing him so much.

Training in Florida, WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto is going through some tough work with his new trainer Pedro Luis Diaz. Cotto announced on Tuesday that he replaced trainer Emanuel Steward, due to scheduling conflicts, with Diaz. Cotto is preparing for his rematch with Antonio Margarito, which takes place on December 3rd at New York's Madison Square Garden. HBO will televise.

Damn, already practicing that knee in the 2nd to last pic. They're really going over every possibility in this camp. Thorough!

This is their best hope, but I still find it hard to imagine Margarito not closing ground by the back 6. Forcing Cotto to abandon this strategy to an extent in an effort to back peddal more often.

I think people are going to be shocked when margarito comes out looking as strong as he's looked since Cotto 1. The extra couple lbs, plus motivation for redemption will benefit him greatly. Unless Margs' eye is really not healed, this is going to be a high action fight. Cotto needs to stick to the above plan, and pray Margs' is a bit depleted.
