Margarito: "I'm The Best Welterweight Fighter"

[Fox McCloud]

cotto doesnt have the power to ko margarito. if anyone is going to get knocked out its cotto.

A Cotto body punch could do it. Don't kid yourself.

that would mean cotto would have to get on the inside and thats exactly where tony wants him.

That may be... Torres got Holt fighting on the inside and he landed a killer punch...

I'm just saying, your boy isn't impossible to KO. His chin has proved to be iron, but his body isn't quite as unbreakable.

Cotto's terrific body punching could be the thing that knocks Margarito out... just like Margarito did to Cintron.

That said, if you look at my bets, I'm not expecting Cotto to KO Margarito. I'm just saying it's possible.

Yep, we all saw Clottey bend Margs over and beat him up only to get a biased decision. That one score of 118-109 was the worst. The judge should've been shot. The funny thing is, I'm rooting for Margs, and his fans act like Margs is somebody cotto should fear. Clottey exposed margs, and i hope cotto doesn't...but he can. Margs throws awkward, ugly punches. He isn't exciting. He is just a workman like fighter. If you let him dictate the fight, he is ok, but Williams and clottey showed that if you hit him back, he offers nothing in return but ugly counter punches.

Cotto hits hard enough to KO him to the head or the body. It might happen with one punch but it can happen over time in this fight.

plain and basic common sense...


people are expecting a knockout which every real boxing fan knows its gonna be cotto thats gonna be KO'd..

[Burner]

I can actually see Cotto getting stopped within a couple rounds..he'll be in survival mode most of this fight.

I agree that if it ends early it's likely Cotto getting Stopped. Late it's Margarito because there's no doubt in my mind that Margarito has the better chin.

i wanna see margarito win but at the same time lose...if margarito wins floyd won't come out of retirement and fight cotto

The memorable 20th anniversary year of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING will conclude in sensational style on Saturday, Dec. 2, with an outstanding world championship doubleheader featuring two of boxing’s most dynamic performers, Miguel Cotto and Antonio Margarito, live at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City (9 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the west coast). [details]

The question here is: If Carlos Baldomir was such a bum, why has Margarito called him out in the same line as Mayweather? It only confirms what the general belief is: everyone who loses to Floyd is immediately promoted to bum status. It's funny.
And yes MArgarito, you don't have enough under your belt for Mayweather. Sorry, if even undefeated p4p chico Corrales was discredited after losing to Mayweather, what to say about a guy who lost to Daniel Santos? Floyd knew this.
