Margarito to spar with Omar Henry

Margs couldn't have picked a more appropriate sparring partner, imo. Henry is a bigger, stronger, and faster version of Miguel. Some may recall that Team Pac unsuccessfully attempted to secure Henry's services in their preparation for Cotto.

Just so it's clear, Henry's record is 11-0 (9KO's) not 9 draws.

I agree about his lack of a jab which certainly is one of Cotto best weapons that he'll surely be utilizing come December 3rd. Where Margs will benefit most from his sessions with Henry is refamiliarizing himself Cotto's posture and footwork which Henry mimics almost to a t.

 

He's flipped flopped. Last i read, (if I'm not mistaken) he's now signed with Don King.

 

:good

 

Cotto still goes into attack mode, perhaps not as frequent as he once did (which is more of Henry's style) but Margarito will still benefit from getting reaccustomed to Cotto posture when delivering his punches by sparring with Henry who can certainly emulate Miguel in that way.
