am I the only one who thinks Cotto is going to beat Marg?

    No. But I think it's going to be extremely close up until the final bell.

      Anyone else feel claustrophobic watching the replay of Cotto/Margarito one. Margarito was like the damn terminator in that fight.

        Find it hard to watch Marg fights back now in general, the thought that he's fighting with illegal wraps is always in my mind.

        Watching his punches have no effect until the later rounds is just very, very suspect.

          I did, while Cotto had some early rounds, after rewatching the fight the 2nd time, it just seemed to me like Margarito was in control form the 2nd round to the last. I commend Cotto for lasting that long, bigger men have fallen sooner.

          There are a couple of things that interest me about this fight. 1 being Cotto's shoulder that Stewart spoke on. If it was true that his shoulder was bad for years, then he may have had a handicap for a while now.

          I believe that team Cotto chose Mayorga believing he was somewhat similar to Margarito. Cotto stood & traded with him & proved to have better power. I'd like to see if Margarito simply walks through the 2 handed attack this time. It'll be good to see him get some revenge. Although I still do not like that Margarito is getting yet another payday after he was proven a cheater factually against Mosley.

            I watched the cintron/Margarito fight the other day and kinda winced when I heard cintron say in the interview before their second fight that Margarito hits like he has a glove full of bricks.

              Indeed.

              It's even more su****ious when you consider Margs throws mostly arm punches. He very rarely has full range or his body-weight behind them.

                  I give one to cotto. I think he will be smart and box Rito, instead of trading with him. Cotto by UD or fight is stopped because of the eye.
