    Margarito's career after beating Cotto in 2008 :

    -Got demolished by Mosley

    -Got suspended for a year

    -Beat a B level guy in Mexico

    -Got an undeserved title shot against Pacquiao and got demolished again

    How is this guy deserving of an immediate shot at Cotto's belt?
    maybe because he beat the guy with the belt?

    just a guess.

      He got an imediate shot too but it wasn't against a big name and it wasn't on ppv. Margarito got two undeserved shots in ppv fights back to back.

      That means he deserves a rematch 3 fucking years later coming off losses?

        its not like Cotto been defending his belt against deserving guys and if Cotto steps up the comp he probably would lose to any of the top5 JrMW

        honestly this is a cherry picked fight maybe a little better then the Mayorga fight

            losses to top 2-3 welterweights.

            cotto got a vacant title after getting beat down by marg.

            marg can't get a title shot against a guy he beat?

                This question doesn't really require a answer.

                This fight has nothing to do with a title shot.

                One would think that was painfully clear.

                  Does Prescott deserves a rematch against Khan?

                    no.

                    but people wanted to see it and khan has been open to it.

                      You mean Cotto got a shot after being beat down by Manny.
