    Las Vegas is the worst place to fight. The crowd never gets into the fight. Cotto/Margarito should be held in either MSG, Boardwalk or Home Depot Center.

    Yeah, about two years earlier when they were both at junior welterweight. Not 2 years and 4 fights later at a weight Hatton proved he wasn't suited for.

    Oh please. Margo is not afraid of small or big gloves or that midget either. Don't try and push this **** on Margo when the man will go anywhere to fight anybody. He's proven this more than once in his career.

    I fully expect the fight to come off. If it doesn't then boxing sucks ass. Plain and simple.

    Ehmm after fight with Oscar last year, ppl here were talking only about Mosley, Cotto, Wright and something bigger and more important legacy wise for Floyd...I dont remember ppl who wanted to see Hatton versus Floyd.
    Sorry but Hatton vs Floyd was hype fight, it ment nothing to hardcore boxing fans, coz everyone knew that Floyd was on another level years ago.

    The bias against Margarito is starting already:patsch

    Some of you are acting like AM is trying to get some edge here when it is actually COtto who's starting to make the demands.

    All Margo is saying is I don't care where, when and how let's just make the fight:bbb

    This is what its all about , "numbers" love has nothing to do with the bottom line ,or who a fan or who's not as long as there paying thats all that matters.

    We as a boxing fans need to face the fact , if only boxing fans attended boxing shows , then boxer would be broke and the sport it self would die off.

    in the last 25 years there has only been three mega boxing stars know world wide ..listed in order Mike Tyson, Oscar Delahoya , and Tito Trinidad .. No other fighter have come close to generating the number these three fighter have, and now that there gone , so is there fan base.
