looks as if cotto is planning to do alot of fighting off the backfoot, if this is the case hopefully his stamina has improved, i think his gameplan should be suttle defensive moves in the pocket, more head movement and also planting his feet and going hard to the body.... Cotto should utilize a sustained body attack to slow Margo's pressure going into the second half of the fight, he should also take advantage of the clinch, don't use his feet too much to preserve energy... If Cotto tries to box his way to a decision it will likely be the same result as the first fight with Miguel wilting in the later rounds, Cottos mindset should be seek and destroy, sit down on his punches, bang the body and look to KO Margo, **** a decision, he should want to demolish and embarrass Tony on a revenge type mission, if Cotto is just interested in getting a win he will be stopped again....
I'm a fan of Cotto but let's face it, no matter how well his camp goes he's not going to improve as a fighter, he will stiil need a high output and movement to keep Margo off him and he will get tired again, then the punishment begins. I hope I'm bang wrong but I can't see any alternative.
Cotto has had the boxing skills to beat Margarito all along. It is the ability to take punishment that I question. Not just Cotto, but Margarito as well. Margo has had two previous fights where he received incredible damage. Even for an iron chinned fighter, it will definitely show this time around. I see Cotto staying one step ahead of Margo without trading too often and staying away from the ropes. Cotto by MD.
i like the intensity and pace this coach is setting and all but personally i'd be much more comfortable with steward running the show especially if he plans on fighting guys like kirkland or martinez.
