    Hit and hold is the best he can do. With 10 Oz gloves he will be even less likely to hurt Margarito compared to their first bout. If he does the same thing he did in their first fight Margarito will still hurt him.

        For Cotto to win, he's gonna need to economize a little, assuming he doesn't believe in his stamina. Box for the beginning of every round, and then start planting hist feet near the end and sit down on his shots. Jab jab jab, right hand/uppercut to the pit of the stomach, aim for the eye. Do not utilize the ropes as much as you did in the first fight, don't back up into the corners, try to keep the fight in the middle of the ring. When it doubt, jab and clinch. Also, keep your ****ing head up so you don't get hit by uppercuts that you don't see coming lol.

          Come in better conditioned, ready to box on his toes for a full 36 minutes, and stay the fuck off of the ropes.

            Only thing is that cotto alway,s had stamina issues ... That,s something that he can,t fix.... He,s going to hit tony for about 4 rds. While backpedaling and those little ass legs are gonna get tired and marg will keep coming...repeat of first fight...

              It might not be what Cotto does but what margacheato doesn't or can't do.
              He needs to move to the side and not back up but doubt he knows how at this point in his career and target his face which will start to swell early if he gets touched hard I actually think Cotto should go all out early and look to bust up his face and try to get it stopped bcse he'll tire as the rounds mount.

                This will be the same as last time. Cotto will start well and land some hard shots but Marg will keep walking through them and wear him down and stop him late.

                  IDK if this fight is going to be a lot different from their last one, IMO Margarito is going to KO Cotto again, but if Cotto wants to win he should be in amazing shape for this fight, he's going to need it since he's going to have to move around the ring all night long. He should avoid standing still in front of Margarito, and of course he should try to take the center of the ring and make Margarito chase him. IF COTTO IS CAUGHT AGAINST THE ROPES HE'S DONE.
                  He should also try to hit Margarito's body to lower his stamina since Margarito is a guy who throws over 1000 punches per fight. Another thing is that he should try to hurt Margarito early in the fight, because if he isn't able to do it in the first rounds, I'm pretty sure he's not going to be able to do it in the latter rounds since Cotto isn't recognized to be a fighter who's able to maintain the work rate in the last rounds.

                    I expect Cotto to lean on his jab more.

                      Nothing. Because without plaster wraps he would have never lost the first fight, in the first place.

                      Its going to be a complete domination by Cotto and you're going to see alot of silent margarito supporters come December 3rd.
