Who has Cotto's new trainer trained on the professional level and how successful has he been with them?
He has also trained Odlanier Solis. He has taken the Cuban Amateur team to 20 Gold Medals. Fight Hype has a good article on who he's supposed to be: ---------- http://fighthype.com/pages/content10929.html
felix diaz as well. very good trainer. use to train the cuban amateurs when they were dominating the amateur scene
i figured i would add that amateur type of boxing is what cotto needs at this point since he knows everything else but "forgot" the basics. i am expecting him to show Marg a boxing clinic and dance in the ring while keeping it basic with 1-2 and maybe a hook combo and move. If he fails to do this then its a 50% chance of winning losing rather than the 80% i give him if he goes back to basics, the problem is cotto will need a lot of endurance/stamina to dance and cut the ring all day... Keys to Victory Cotto: Movement Keep exchanges short but effective by having feet planted then MOVE Stamina, Stamina, Stamina Dont let Marg dictate his movement (he cant be backing up all fight) He cant let margarito throw 100+ punches per round so even if he failed to hit him he needs more activity as he proved when attacked marg does back up Margarito: Better defense Pressure, Pressure, Pressure Cutting the ring Defense, Defense, Defense 100+ punches per round He needs to come out hard and keep it steady Its simple Marg cant let cotto dance and connect and take it by UD and or score late round KO Its really anybody's fight and one of the few i wont stream and actually watch the PPV
