    MMA related one:

    Anderson Silva choking out Dan Henderson in round 2 of their fight with a rear naked choke. Even their trunk colours were the same in the dream!

    People are overlooking the weight. There was a size and strength disparity in the first fight, it will be even bigger this time.

    It only matters when that's both fighter's game - Cotto has the skills to fight in different ways, so he can negate some of Margo's physicality. Plus, according to Mosley, Cotto was stronger in the ring that Tony.

    Cotto knows he can improve on last time out, I believe his training intensity being better will do him world of good. Plus using the Everlast gloves may do him a favor as well from a defensive POV.

    He's made some adjustments since that night three years ago, Tony hasn't cos he can't..

    The weight doesn't make that much difference, Margarito has always looked distinctly average at 154lbs anyways.

    All he needs to do is measure himself in the first six rounds. Box smart rather than flashy, bank those rounds and disrupt Margo whenever he gets in close by holding and pushing.

    He doesn't need to do much more to win. Margo's shell has been cracked.
