if the rumours are indeed true then who takes this? at 154 i think cotto has a better chance than he did at 147 and without the handwraps marg won't back him up quite as easily.i think the addition of manny steward as cotto's trainer this time around will be the difference and i think cotto takes a clear but entertaining decision, maybe a 116-112.what do u guys think? feel free to disagree
well he did look good against foreman, and I think he can redeem himslef, that rematch must happen next year, the loser should be written off after that.
i hope Cotto wins if this does happen.....he had it all right early i the first fight but he couldnt keep it up for 12..hopefully things are better this go round. Problem is im not sure he is comfortable with that style...he still is a stalker....his last fight was brilliant but Cotto was the aggressor....it wont be that way agaisnt Margo and if Margo still has the same effect on Cotto with his punches....i fear for the worse.
think cotto is still gonna win this one. it will be retribution for him . with no handwraps i think mentally margacheato isnt the same
I don't like Cotto @ 154...@ that w8 Margo wuld hav it way to easy and if Cotto can still make 147 comfortably, he shuld make the fight there instead!
Since Clottey is moving up, why not Clottey v Cotto. Their first fight was pretty entertaining, and I'd be interested in watching a rematch at jr middle. I know, I know Clottey wants to head to MW, but if he is so sure he beat Cotto the first time, why not collect a jr middle belt along the way. I think Margs is done, and is nothing more than a stepping stone for an up-and-comer to put a name on his resume.
I would like Cotto to win this this but I dont he will. I think this fight will go the same as the first. The fight needs to be made to clear up the hand wraps eposide. I hope Cotto has a at least another warm up before Margo.
It could be entertaining to see how will Cotto avenged that defeat, and if Margo can still perform the way he did in their first encounter, I'll go for Cotto with this one
I like Cotto at either weight. Stylistically Cotto is waves above Marg at this point. Plus, I believe Marg cheated in their first fight, and though it's never been proven, you can see the way Margs shots were affecting him. Hope this fight goes down, and Marg can be sent into boxing nothingness where he belongs.
154 will favour Margarito more than it will Cotto. I’m not too confident in the Puerto Rican's stint as a junior middleweight, and despite the beating Margarito’s just taken, I think he’ll be fresher out of the two. But it would be great if Cotto could get his revenge. What a story that would be.
cotto gets smashed to bits inside 8 rounds. he hasnt got it anymore! handwraps or no handwraps, he got hit far too often by margo first time out.
