is this cotto's hardest fight yet? im not sure because you have mosely who hes beat and judah. And margo is not good as them in quality in my opinion however i think he is tougher than them guys.
I think this is a huge step up in class for Margarito and his toughest fight to date. I think Cotto has seen guys like Margarito ... either early in his pro career or in the amateurs ... i'm sure Cotto will make the neccessary adjustments to take the fight.
Cotto has the better arsenal. Plus Cotto is a much better boxer than Margarito. Cotto can fight going forward, backing up and counter punching, and will give Margarito alot of different angles. The only way Margarito wins is if Cotto Trades with him alot.
Everyone knows Margarito is one tought mother. Cotto has fought and beat alot of top fighters and avenged his losses in the olympics by beating Pinto and Abdaliev. I have no idea how to spell that guys name. I think Pinto was the sliver medalist and Abdaliev was the gold medalist. I respect Margarito. However, his claim to fame is beating Cintron twice. Cintron ain't know Mosley or Judah.
Well we know what happened in that fight. Bogus stoppage on a headbutt and a SD for Santos in his hometown that many had Margarito winning and coming on strong on in. Besides that, Santos is a better fighter than Cotto IMO, maybe not in a p4p sense, but he's a very good southpaw and 3X Champion.
Margarito did rock Santos big time in the 5th or 6th round. However, Santos is not a better fighter than Cotto.
