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

    I think Cotto has more left in the tank but Margarito's style will always give Cotto trouble because Margarito won't give him room to breathe and if Margarito showed anything in the Pacquiao fight is that he still possesses a great chin and is willing to walk through punches to give them.

    I also have my doubts about Cotto's new trainer, jumping right from amateur boxing to pro boxing of this caliber is a pretty big jump. And I hope this guy doesn't try to instill the Cuban amateur style of defense, which is basically to keep a high guard and catch shots as they are coming in. It won't work.

      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.
      Cheato had cataract surgery wich means that his vision will be alot better than before... no excuses please

          Im leaning to Cotto by decision in a close grueling fight but it wouldnt surprise me if there was a repeat of the first fight. This is a true toss up fight imo.

Better skills, better boxing, better defense, you seem blinded by your hate of him. Its obvious you want Cotto to lose, but you seem racist and make Mexicans look bad, just like Margarito. Tell me, hows does Margarito do this again? What strategy? What rounds? Body shots? Head shots? What about his eye? You just post without thinking. I put a real prediction on the master thread, do the same and I wont think you're a F****n r3tard.
            please........muther****er explian to me how cotto is a better fighter than margo??

            have you seen the first fight?margo took everything cotto had,took his best body shots,best left hooks,best boxing skills cotto could offer and then taught him a lesson he will never forget,cotto does not like pressure fighter and margo is one of the best in the business,cotto will take a few early rounds boxing behind the jab and moving around using his skills,come round 6-7 he will slow down like he always does,then its margo time,with relentless pace and power he will walk cotto down with head and body shots,he will break cotto's will infront of thousands of crying ricans,thats how its going to go

            btw im not racist just respecting a true Mexican warrior

                Will he clinch? if not, his stamina will take a hit from fighting on the backfoot again.

                    He was right about every single thing he said, boi. I agree with him and I'm not hanging on to Cotto's nuts. Margarito is a warrior because he fights like a zombie? Is that right? Yea, he's a good fighter cause he has no gameplan but to get hit and keep going. Its ****** but it has got him this far, with consequences of course. Cotto was winning until he got tired and got hit with a good one.
