Comments Thread For: “Fighting Words” – Deconstructing Cotto-Margarito Ep. 1

honestly cotto beating this fighter means nothing,it's like when he beat mayorga,nothing,,,i just don't see the big deal in beating a fighter that has struggled so badly lately,has been away for a year and on top of that also had surgery so who knows how that will go in their fight,this might be personal for cotto,but thats it,no big deal in beating a guy like that

The whole glove scandal made the the episode great. I was really interested that Cotto's mother goes with him when he trains because that was what his father did before he passed away.

bottom line for me is that Margarito has more left than Cotto, who has been declining for years -- ever since their 1st fight really -- don't see this one going much differently than the 1st one -- even without Margarito's 'hands of concrete' -- a younger and more in his prime Cotto couldn't hurt Margarito back then, no reason to think he can now -- Margarito still moves well enough and punches hard enough to bust Cotto up again and probably stop him in a late middle round....
