As a Mexican, I'm starting to lean towards Cotto....

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

I'm gonna bless this forum and thread with some insight out of respect for Cuauhtémoc...what's up, man...


People wanna talk about Cotto's gas tank in their first fight, yet no one ever mentions his nose getting smashed in the 2nd Round...

You know what happens there, right?...it makes you breathe through your mouth, which in turn, immediately starts draining you....not to mention, he was swallowing over a pint of his blood while he was fighting...everyone saw him spitting that **** out...

All that probably cost him 2, 3 rounds of gas...it wasn't just the body shots.


No plaster this time, Cotto knowing the adjustments he has to make, Cuban trainer on his conditioning and fundamentals, Marg's eye and layoff, MSG Puerto Rican crowd, the sense of Justice, potential rubber match, etc etc....


I don't say this often...because I honestly don't give a **** what other oddsmakers say...but Cotto is the favorite for a reason in this one, guys...

PayPal me 20% and you're welcome...lol

LMAOO!!

I overlooked part of one of your posts...



and THAT'S why there's that Respect...you know the game.

What's up man, long time no see. I agree man, that shot in the second to break his nose was a crucial blow.

I do think that his pressure and body punching also wore down Cotto. I feel at 147 Cotto really felt the power of Margarito. At 154 it will be more but again, Marg isn't the same guy and might have more miles on the odometer than Cotto.

While Cotto gets 1.50 x your money
Margarito odds are 2.67 x your money

The bookies may be on to somethig.

How come margarito keeps his dark sun glasses on is he hiding something.

I have e-points and real money on Marg and still think he has the advantage but something inside of me tells me Cotto is becoming more and more the favorite in this fight.

I understand all the pluses and negatives each fighter has but the eye of Marg really concerns me. I don't think the wraps had anything to do with for the record.

Not because I want to give Marg an excuse or think that loading your gloves won't matter but it wasn't a brick that fell out of Marg's gloves like most think. It was the wraps, the color of the wraps and when analyzed what elements were found in them.

Saying that, I think Marg might be a little more shop worn and wonder how badly the vision is in his right eye. Cotto isn't the same fighter either but maybe he can box his way to a UD in this one.

As the fight gets closer, I'm starting to think it will be closer than I first thought.

Never go against la raza, you will regret this.

Im mexican and im 100% going for Cotto. Raza? Its one thing if you believe he didn't cheat, but if you do, and you still root for him, thats just low. I believe he cheated and Idgaf that he's raza, cheatings for scumbags and he makes raza look bad. I want Cotto to tear his ass up. And i think its going to be a lot different than people expect. I honestly believe Cotto will Knock him out.

fake ****ing chino ass Mexican

margo is a real warrior and never cheated,he made cotto quit once and he will do it again,soon as cotto starts to slow down after 6th round margo will bring the heat and pressure,he will put another beat down on cotto and make real Mexicans proud of him again

That's just pre-fight jitters, Cua.

Funny you mentioned this, I was eating breakfast today and started to lean towards Margarito, but then I started thinking back to all the advantages Cotto has and held my ground on Cotto.

We as boxing fans tend to overanalyze everything. Hell, I remember watching the Mayweather/Ortiz on PPV live and remember thinking Floyd wouldn't be 100% coming into the ring because they were having technical difficulties with his entrance song. Something happened that Fifty Cent just stopped singing altogether and I thought, "Well, ****! How is a fighter supposed to get pumped if he doesn't have his entrance music?" Boy, am I an idiot...

I also remember thinking Foreman would beat Cotto because he was going to be a bigger fighter and be able to stick and move for a full 12 rounds. I honestly thought he was going to make Cotto look silly.

And I was worried about Jennings, too...

And I felt certain Cotto would beat Pacquiao because I felt Pacquiao wouldn't be able to take a shot from a true welterweight.

The only times I've been to big fights (live in attendance) was Juanma-Salido and Calderón-Segura I.

All in all, I'm bad in my predictions apparently. I'm also horrible luck for Puerto Rican fighters.

If Cotto loses this Saturday, it'll add further substance to my long list of Teddy Atlas-esque predictions. God, I hope I'm wrong. There are too many lives in the Cotto Express for it to happen. Will somebody think of the children?!

no tinta!...sorry but when it comes to bad predictions I am the p4p king....and i swear bring more bad luck to p.r. fighters than a voodoo curse straight outta haiti. so dont feel bad..your not alone ..and certainly not the worse lol.

Sure pal, whatever you say.
Margarito doesn't make it to the 12th. Either Cotto busts his eye wide open or slows him with body shots and it becomes target practice for him til the ref stops it. Ill be happy when that happens because this ****** cheater will get what he deserves. Vamos Cotto!
