    Thanks Bro :good. Nah me and Shaun sent few e-mails back and forth and he ended up kindly offering chance for me to do some articles and ended up sending that over. I do love writing about boxing. Anything else don't really bother me. Never done well at school etc but dunno i love to write about the sport. Always interested me.

    Keep watching the ending to this video....Cotto boxed so so well early on. That night early on i felt like i was watching a masterclass of boxing. Wish i watched HBO commentary then the Top Rank one.

    The moment i saw him walking back to the changing rooms he was alone and had just a towel to wipe away his bloody face. I thought ''i don't think he will ever be the same he might not come back from this''. He's done well to come back and win few more titles and add names to the list. I was thinking about the fight yesterday and i was amped.

    I hope it doesn't get left to late in careers.

    How come Margarito won't be ready? Still not made a full recovery from the Pacquiao beatdown?

    Was well looking forward to this, hopefully it'll happen sooner rather than later. Should be exciting action with a really interesting back story to boot. Redemption (of sorts) for whoever wins it.

    I was thinking earlier this will be nearly a year out. Hope Margarito just wants a tune up which is cool.

    Has to be a rematch. It's something i've wanted to see for 3 years.

    Yeah makes sense to be fair, a tune up would probably do him some good.

    On a separate note I wonder when Margarito's punch resistance will finally start to fade. He can't go taking the kind of punishment he has in his last few fights without it catching up to him... surely?

    I wondered same thing the other day mate. The beating from Pacquiao for many would destroy a career. Antonio has made a career of defying logic taking **** loads of punishment to beat his man.

    He's sort of fighter that can fall apart very quickly through wear and tear as well as punch resistance. Don't care who you are...only so much you can take. Mosley fight was also a very brutal beating IMO. He really stabbed jab to heart and used textbook hooks. Really Spiteful!

    I think Cotto fight...whether he used wraps or not....he still took a lot of punches that night from a hard puncher.

    Gonna be Very interesting to see how he comes back.

    On March 18, 1978 Nasa satellites where monitoring a Tornado, with a Wind speed of 300mph and the mass of Tornado was stretching more than Two miles.

    The satellites picked up a unidentified object in the eye of the storm.........the unidentified object was identified as a then baby Antonio Margirto.

    "That was the day Antonio Margarito was born"

    Antonio Margarito is neither good or bad, he's just a natural occurrence of nature.

    And now........he is Back..!!!

    Margarito is done.Pacman injured him badly and I would be surprised if this fight comes off.Cotto vs Chavez Jr. is more likely.:good

    :lol: at Cotto giving Marg a beating, best case scenario is he wins a decision on the back foot

    i dont think cottos improved all that much. if he fought someone like powell wolak he'd get mauled, cottos power at 154 isn't there, marg may still have enough in the tank to beat him a second time,
