Margarito vs Cotto

Cintron is not way slower than AM, he's probably slightly faster.

Cotto is faster than both, obviously. .. b ut thats not what you said. Maybe you mistyped - I sure hope so.

 

When did Margo get an iron chin? Because Cintron couldn't get his full leverage on him?:yep

Here guys, Cotto CAN and WILL hurt Margarito. Watch the Clottey fight again, Clottey is a non-puncher and had Margarito stunned from an uppercut. Cotto's vicious body attack is going to hurt Margarito also.

Cotto's strong jab is going to land at will and Margarito is the type that cuts and bruises easily, we know what those types end up like vs. Cotto, they get their faces re-arranged.

This won't be competitive, Margarito beating Cintron does not erase the two **** poor performances he had before it and Cotto's at least two levels up in calibre from Clottey, Williams and Cintron.

Cotto TKO 8. One sided.

 

I think its about time Cotto gets thrown to the wolves, he is ready and if he cant get past a Margarito then Margo deserves the shot at PBF plain and simple no excuses. With that said Cotto if he is as good as we all believe he is will prove it by blasting Margos wide telegraph punching ass to bits in July and if not then thats all very well also.

 

:deal

 

lol.....on the inside Cintron is an uncoordinated very slow mess, MUCH SLOWER than Margarito its sad how you're just bullshiting out of your mouth.

Anyone in boxing has quick 1 punch speed. But can Cintron punch quick in combinations? Can he throw 3-4 punches in fluidity without slowing down? No he can't at all. At least margo has something going for him in that he can let about 3-4 or 5 punches go together on the inside(maybe not very fast but he can let them go consecutively). Can Cintron do this? NOPE. Why? Because he is somewhat clumsy on the inside, he has a massive frame and he can barely move up close, Cintron IS slower than Margarito :roflatsch

 

Cintron deserves massive respect for joining boxing at the age of 19 and also dealing with his personal issues and STILL being successful as a boxer and competing on the world stage that he did. There are a lot of fundamentals that just can't be learned unless you pick them up early, he basically made it to the world stage with 50% of the foundation that most fighter have (mostly a psychological foundation) Either way Cintron deserves respect, I wasn't trying to diss Cintron, I've followed and supported his career as soon as he started on ESPN in the days where he had the puerto rican flag spray painted on the back of his head. Cintron Margarito and Cotto are all class acts, they are fighting any challenger hands down without questions asked...That is what boxing is all about and that is how boxing wins over new fans and respect from casual observers.

 

He's already been thrown in with superior fighters to Margarito, Mosely and Quintana are superior to him.

Look on ESPN right now, a guy that Cintron struggled with is getting his ass handed to him by a C level fighter in Tsurkan. All it took was Cintron getting stopped again and suddenly Margarito is an A class fighter with a titanium chin.:yep

 

Simpleton...it's not only who you beat, it's HOW you beat em. :roll:

 

Yea its not gonna be about that Cotto beat Margarito, its gonna be HOW he beat margarito

 

This is a tough fight for both fighters. Who ever uses there advantages best will win. I'm picking Cotto to win. He knows how to adjust well. It's not a easy fight to call either cause Margo posses problems. I want to see how well Cotto deal with Margo's pressure. The key for Cotto is to beat that body and counter. Mix it up with inside and outside play.

 

If it's an excellent fight, I won't mind. :good

 

Personally I'd rather see Margarito win.

He's a little older, possibly more comfortable at the weight, more experienced and stronger than Quintana was. Everytime I go against Cotto he prooves me wrong but I'll take my chances. He's gonna have a tougher time dealing with Margarito's height than most people think.

Cotto loses a lot of the early half only to win it late if he can. I see Margarito remaining in the lead until/if/when he may be beaten.

Go Margarito!!

 

Margarito hardly fights tall though. Cotto has dealt with taller fighters before such as Bezan and Pinto.

 

It's nice too see some people who can respect some bravery! In this fight I respect both fighters! They both have a lot to lose, but whoever wins may have some big time gains!
