    Did anyone find a link for this? I just read an interview with Arum on the site that talks about boxing, and nothing was mentioned about this.

    Once Margarito turns it up in the mid-rounds Cotto will be done for ... everyone who's seen Margarito fight, knows that when he turns it up - that its over. Margarito will not get tired and will not stop coming forward with over 100 punches per round. His chin is solid so don't expect him to get rocked with some unneccessary bull**** ... Cotto will be on the defensive all night.

    Cotto will box going backwards and hit Margarito with pin point accurate punches.

    It just worries me when Margarito turns up the pace ...

    Cotto will be winning toward the mid-rounds and by then it turns into a brawl ... Cotto brawling to get Margarito off of him and Margarito just being Margarito.

    Cotto can survive Margo's sloppy offense...that's not a worry.

    Is there a more overrated fighter right now than Antonio Margarito?

    Damn I can't say who wins that fight ... you got a boxer in Cotto, who can brawl, and throws accurate punches -- Then you got Margarito who's somewhat a brawler and at some point in the fight he will take his work rate to another level and never gets tired. Margarito has a solid chin but is extremely flawed ...


    I would have to give Cotto the nod - but i'm not going to because Margarito's work rate is something that Cotto isn't used to ... I think if the fight takes place on the inside and Margarito turns it up I can see Cotto running ...

    Cotto can't survive those shots -- he blocks a few but I see many getting through ... he won't stop throwing ... and once Cotto sees he can't block or duck those shits all night then I see it turning into a brawl where Cotto gets tapped on his chin and goes down for the count.

    I hope this time aurum WILL MAKE the offer, cause he aint do it so far with either Cotto or Margarito to Floyd. But if he still goes with his idiotic 'no offer till they be interested in takin the fight', we can not get it.

    Yeah Margarito as long as he boxes and uses the ring properly ... but I think he will get lured into a brawl ...

    If Cotto just stuck to the jab, moved and turned Margarito & made sure to show Margarito's body some love -- it could be an easy night.

    But this latin brovado ... will cause Cotto to fight Margarito's fight and brawl.

    Cotto doesn't have the chin to do that but I don't think he realize that.

    Especially if Cotto is winning the fight in the mid rounds then Margaritos surprises him by turning up his work rate and moving forward with no concern.
