    This may be my mistake then, but I think that Margo gives Cotto hell.

    Cotto ain't a slick boxer type; he won't be able to dodge all Margo's blows, which will be coming fast and furious as per the norm.

    I lean towards Cotto myself, but I wouldn't discount a Margo win. I see this as an upgraded version of Cotto's fight with Ndou at LWW. Cotto had a hard time in that fight, despite winning relatively comfortably. But a prime Ndou isn't on the same level as WW Margarito.

    Margarito isn't some spotty unbeaten prospect, being fed on journeymen, who we have all saw weaknesses in. He's a battled-hardened, granite chinned, warrior, who has gone the hard way in the game, and see's this as his big chance. I think this will be Cotto's hardest fight. Cotto should win, but discount Margarito at your peril.

    Exactly what i was thinkin. hoping for a Cotto win but wouldn't bet on it! I think Margo's non-stop aggression gives miguel problems he ain't never faced before in the way Tony brings it. BTW massive Cotto fan but this fight worries me! Tony has a granite chin and work rate to really bother my boy.

    At least we will see a proper fight and some entertainment either way, which is something most elite boxers think they no longer have to provide!

    SO simple to answer this. 80% of people going to boxing matches are not really boxing fans. They just come and go. A mexican and a puertorican fighting in USA. Make the Fight in Puerto Rico or Mexico and you will se HUGE difference.

    One more week thank god and the two best welters in the world get it on for the true WW title, BTW I was watching Tonys fight last night with Cintron the rematch and let me just throw this out there, Floyd Mayweather Jr would get beat the **** up by this guy.
    you all say he is sloppy, you say he has no skills? Hmmmmm, there are a few things I noticed in Tonys style that would make me not want to see Floyd fight him, Floyd would get hurt, his style would be his worse enemy in a fight with Tony.
    its a good thing the boy left the sport seriously, I understand exactly now why Floyd never had any interest in fighting him.
