    If Margaritto knocks out Cotto (which I'm sure he will),with Floyd gone and Margaritto having been beaten by Paul Williams whats left at 147.

    Which other fight would you rather see?Is tonite the end of boxing coz 147 was the most exciting?

    You really think Cotto would just disappear after losing just 1 fight? Its a fight that I would think is almost rematch caliber right of the bat!!

    Margarito - Williams becomes the most important fight at welterweight. No question about it.

    No guy should loose their career over this fight, unless they are physically damaged afterwards (which could be a possibility). This is a high risk/high reward fight for both involved. The loser should be able to bounce back and even potentially get a rematch down the line.

    If Cotto gets knocked out the way he knocked out Judah the road to recovery could be a long one.Margaritto-Williams is not really something many would be looking forward to .Besides we cant deny that 147lbs would become just like 154.

    Actually no, we can get some great matchups regardless of tonights results. Cotto-Margo rematch
    Margo-Williams rematch
    Cotto-Williams

    Plus throw in Clottey and Berto and you've got some excellent potential for big fights.

    Do you guys realise why Cotto didnt want to sign for this fight.
