Can't help but get excited for this one, I reckon it's going to be a classic. Marg's gonna want to keep his name on the scene by securing another win over I'm thinking Marg's gonna use a similar tactic of just walking Cotto down whilst eating everything thrown at him. Cotto's going to want to banish his demons by either KO'ing Marg, or boxing his way to a comfortable UD. Thing is, u can gurantee that Steward will be telling Cotto to box a UD, but is Cotto going to be able to stick to something like that? I'm almost hoping he doesn't, risks losing and goes after KO'ing Marg by beating him to a bloody bulp and then laying him out with a body shot. Just thought I'd make this thread. Lunch time at work and the thought is excting me. Thoughts...?
Kneeguel Cottoe is going to fight on his bike. He knows he can't phase Margarito. This content is protected
Cotto is going to try to box and tie Margo up whenever possible, Steward will make sure of that. If he can actually do it for all twelve rounds is another thing, doesn't come natural to him. Can't wait for this fight too. It will answer alot questions.
I think Margo has slowed down a lot, he looked painfully slow in the Pacquiao fight. I don't remember him being THAT slow against Cotto.
manny steward won't let him fight toe to toe. it will have to be a boxing masterclass by cotto for him to win. if it happens at 154 then i think it suits margarito because he will be carrying to much weight around to dance around the ring for 12 rounds. cotto needs it to be at 150 or below so he has the necessary speed to get to margo and the agility and endurance to get away.
The only reason I'm looking forward to this. The Margo of before would eat Cotto alive right now, but Margo has also been slowed down. I'm waiting to see how much of damage Pac put on him. Good fight.
MArgo would win again without his bricksgloves... Margo took cotto's heart and soul on thier first fight.
Cotto just need to clinch and keep his guard when he gets out of range. Far to often he lets it drop and eat unnecessary punches. He was schooling Margo in the first 5-6 rounds.
God I haven't seen a Puerto Rican do what Cotto did in the first couple rounds of the Margo fight in a very long time. Cotto looked like a million bucks in there.
