Cotto vs Margarito

cotto by late tko,
I think margo is a very tough guy, but he eat too much punches.

 

Marg was 160, Santos was 170.

 

This is a fight I would like to see. I want to see how well Cotto do against a pressure fighter. This fight will be a war. How ever, I pick Cotto to win.

 

I didn't get a chance to vote, but you can add me under Margarito by late TKO.

I just think Cotto likes a methodical pace where he is the aggressor going after the boxer. I think that Margarito presses him and takes him out of his comfort zone with hard volume punches. Cotto will fight back, but the pace will not be one he is used to. He won't be able to dent Margarito like he has Judah, Quintana and others. And that will be a key difference as this fight unfolds.

Also please don't say Williams schooled Margarito. It was a damn close fight. Many saw it a win for Margarito.

 

I think the pressure that Margo will bring will cause Cotto to fade a lot earlier than in his fight with Mosley perhaps as early as the 6th round where he will go into survival/counter-punching mode again. There's nothing more frustrating and intimidating than being unable to get someone off of you that keeps coming and throwing punches in bunches. Margo is a busier fighter than Mosley and punches harder coupled with the fact that Cotto is not exactly hard to hit and I see a late stoppage due to accumulation. Margo by TKO in 10 or 11.
