    How is Cotto an inferior fighter compared to Margo?
    Margo is less tecnical.
    Margo doesn't fully extend his right.
    and Margo has a bad habit of allowing his feet to come together as he fires his combos.

    AM wasnt pampered for years by Arum, Id say he's a bit hungrier.

    Margo has been in with much softer competition, I think he will be exposed because he is stepping up in class, Cotto isn't the one stepping up in class here, Margo is.

    Should be a good close fight. I favor Cotto by a slight margin, just because Margo hasn't beaten anyone as good as Sugar Shane.

    I Think it would take more of a slickster than Cotto to exploit that though.
    Cotto is more of a physical type bruiser who will mainly stand and bang with Margo, and come off worse.

    No! Margo is to limited to beat an elite boxer like Cotto. If Cotto uses his jab and shows movement he'll have no problems with Margo if he tries to slug it out he will.

    Team Cotto said Las Vegas would be agreed on only if the 8oz gloves were allowed. So after Arum met with the commission and board, and it was allowed.

    Margo said he didn't care were or what gloves or none! So now I don't know what's up Cotto got the gloves...what now?

    But his high workrate will make a slick boxing performance by Cotto difficult.I think he'll get walked down,smothered, and dragged into trench warfare.
    Going to be a ******* of a fight.
