    I'll watch because I'm addicted to 24/7.
    Tbhe fight will play out the same as before. The only questions are can Cotto build up enough of a lead before he fades, and can he hold on to the final bell.
    However this fight should not be happening I'm not high on Cotto but he is a champion, and what has Margarito done to deserve a championship fight?

    i think cotto is taking this as more of a payback fight, redemption. getting the chance to avenge his first loss and i think deep down cotto things margo did cheat!

    His trainer is a national Cuban boxing coach and has an extensive experience from amateurs and olypmics. He seems well seasoned and is tight on the fundamentals. I think he will be a good fit for Miguel. Only one way to find out!

    This dose not explame why Margarito comming off of two bad losses deserves to be in a championship fight. If he gets a cupple of good wins I will fell difrently.

    it really doesnt matter if he deserves it or not. if cotto wants payback and see's this as his opportunity to do so, then why not? because of margos name and history with cotto, the fight makes them both money as well!

    Margo must cut a lot of weight, he looks ridiculously ripped

    maybe, but then it makes the series 24/7 less attractive later when a really big fight comes up. I always think how great it would have been to have that faceoff when Hagler fought Hearns or Holmes vs. Cooney. Holmes might have been dramatic and pushed the table in the air knocking over Cooney and Kellerman.

    Losing to an ATG in Pacquiao doesn't make you irrelevant.

    Theres a lot of fights and potential fights of the past this series could have done justice too.

    Thats the problem with boxing one loss to a good fighter and you're labelled as shot. Is why boxers are so picky with match-ups and only take fights they have a strong chance of winning. If Duran, SRL, Hagler, Hearns had done such things we would have missed a lot of great fights. They done it to a degree but now it's on another level.
