    I also fear the fight will not go according to Cotto's plan but I trust he will come in confident despite what many people chose to beleive. I have a listing of favorite fighters that have gone through the ringer these past couple of years but he stick to them man. Cotto's got a great skill set behind him and Margo just may have his number. Certain intangibles shine through in certain scenerios and if Cotto can't land on Margo with the front foot using his body attack and power he might be in for the same type of night.

    A few days ago I made a list of things Cotto would probably have to change in order to win this fight. As I recall there were six items on my list. It just seemed like to much change.

    Margarito does not need to change anything. Theoretically he can do exactly what he did in the first fight, and get the same result.

    If that's what Marg does, then Cotto needs to throw a left uppercut to the solar plexis.

    I dont know what your talking about but everyone here is favoring Margo to repeat what he did in the first fight. Cotto is the underdog here.

    I dont go by odds. Look at everyone in the forum. The general consensus is that Cotto cant jurt Margo and will walk through him again like he did in the first fight.

    Check Terry Norris v. Simon Brown. Brown DESTROYED Norris their first time around. I mean he made Norris look absolutely silly.

    But Norris came back and handily outboxed Brown in the rematch.

    As a Cotto fan, I think you should look at this. I believe that Cotto was boxing the begeezus out of Margarito before he ran out of gas and Margarito caught up with him. I don't think Cotto understood what kind of pressure Margarito would put on him. Now he does, and he will prepare accordingly.

    I think that says something. Cotto was the underdog against pac.

    I disagree with the other guy saying ESB majority pick margo. I think more are picking cotto to win, just not with a solid confidence and recognizing margo has a decent chance. Its not just your pick but also your confidence in your pick.

    Ah... true.

    How about Lucian Bute v. Librado Andrande?

    Great one! That's as dramatic as it gets ... tho I must point out that when u look at the record books bute would have 2 wins ... so he doesn't really qualify but we all know the deal
