    at least Cottoe fought and shown he still has something in him

    meanwhile margoe took a massive career threatening AZZ beating and hasn't fought ever since

    this is true. we don't know how that eye will hold up. looks like margo's willing to lose an eye for boxing.

    I think margoe will lose his eye in this fight, but I don't want it to happen to him.

    He relied heavily on his physical gifts like durability and stamina. Shot fighters have a steep decline with their physicality. Could you imagine Margarito ever making it to the world level if his durability isn't as good as it was?

    Both are well past their best.Cotto took 12 though to stop shot to **** Mayorga and he didnt hurt Margarito at all in the first fight.Tonys chin can take whatever he can dish out.Cotto cant stand the pace or pressure against Margarito and will fold again IMO.Cotto has been matched very carefully since being destroyed by Pacquiao.

    Cotto is probably as much shot as Margo

    HE relied on loading his gloves and wearing people down. He was never that good a boxer. People were getting hit by a guy with bricks

    Remember the face off where they were discussing the subject of dying in the ring?

    Watch the knee that Cotto took and the backpedaling against Pac make all the difference in respective freshness when this rematch rolls around. The Cotto haters would soon find that KNEEguel gets the last laugh.

    Margarito has been boxing since he was 15 and now he is 33 years old, that's 18 years in the sport. Tony has always had shitty defense, he's a face-first volume puncher with a good chin. I believe he is beyond shot at this point because of the amount of punishment he has taken. Arum is just feeding him to Cotto at this point.
