    We tend to hear about sparring partners for big fights more than often when they occur. I know Omar Henry is in the Margarito camp, does anyone have any info/footage of them two sparring? Cotto always seems to not bring big names for his sparring sessions and I always felt thats perhaps what doesnt push him to that brink level that he needs esp. at this time of his career. Does anyone have any names of the sparring partners that were brought to the Cotto camp for this fight?

    Marco Antonio Rubio and Nick Diaz (MMA) are the ones I know have been sparring with Cotto

    Nick Diaz. He is that nasty snarling guy from Strikeforce aint he. Hardly good preparation taking on some MMA feather fist

    Cotto loves sparring with MMA guys, first Torres now Diaz:lol: I hope they put some footage esp. if anyone has any with Omar Henry and Margarito? Maybe in the second 24/7 we could witness some sparring?

    Well UFC purchase Strikeforce and Diaz dislikes Dana very much even daring to say hes making more money sparring with boxing fighters such Andre Ward. A -C- level boxing fighter dominating MMA is a beautiful thing. Diaz is a bad ass and perhaps will be a great addition to make some noise in boxing if he ever decides to come back. Dana convince him not to fight Jeff Lacy. I wonder why Dana is so scare to let his best fighters step in the ring even with boxers whose career are over every time is about to happen:lol:

    That's not Juan Diaz we talking about! This guy has power and pretty good boxing skills. He's actually the only guy I like watching in MMA. Cotto has never been known to push himself to the limit during sparring or training. And if he does we never see it on TV.
