    Does anyone think it will play a facor in this fight. Earlier during the press conferences in the past months, the difference wasnt that notable because both fighters were over 165 pounds but at 147... Margarito has a very good height and reach advantage over Cotto. Thoughts?

    Of course it'll be a factor.

    The one thing I noticed about all these staredowns is that Margarito almost always hunches over. I don't know why he does that.

    For as long as I can remember, Cotto's opponents have always looks huge compared to him at weigh ins, only for him to look like the bigger man come fight night. And I don't think Cotto will look like the bigger man in this sitation (as Margarito is the biggest WW Cotto has faced) but, I don't think there will be as big a comparison to that photo. 1 DAY LEFT!!

    Yet another reason why he will stop Cotto late. That and Cotto's questionable whiskers. :yep

    Cotto lined up to damage the ribs.

    Margarito looks weak in the stomach!

    I had noticed this during the countdown but wasnt sure till right now, Cotto has a tattoo on his hip!

    Hope you're enjoying the summer off...but Cotto's sharper, straighter, faster punches will be the end of Tony. Like the Vasquez/Marquez fights...I want both to win.

    What first came into mind when I saw that pic, are those Cotto fists punching holes on Margarito's skinny sides.

    Cotto is going to tee-off on that ribcage.

    Watching the televised footage, I thought Margarito looked too drained in the midsection, but given his size I'm assuming this is standard for him. I wouldn't be surprised if he's over 160 tomorrow.

    How can you tell when a stomach looks weak? If by weak you mean out of shape I really doubt it. He looks more defined than Cotto.

    Exactly, the response to Margarito the last few years has been laughable. B grade fighter.

    Margarito's height wont mean anything.
