    Cotto is in his prime right now. And will be for the years to come.

    Right, whatever. Let's see what happens when he fights Margo. I think he lost to SLM and will have a hard time dealing with Margo's pressure. Also I can't stand the myth of undefeated fighters. **** their records. This **** prevents big fights from happening. Hate to sound like a dildo but long time ago fighters weren't such protected pussies. This is part of a reason why boxing in in decline.

    After watching the MArg vs Cintron fight and then cotto fight right after, I thought it was very obvious that Cotto was slicker and faster then Marg and cintron. I think Marg is a tough fight for anyone and who knows if he could hurt cotto early and actually win...but I really doubt it, Cotto has solid defense and can fight inside.. and these were the two things Cintron lacked that hurt him the Most IMO.

    Hate to sound like an American **** but Cintron looked like a robotic EU fighter ala Kessler/Adamek.

    I initiall thought Cotto will be an easy fight for PBF but after seeing how Cotto dealt with Mosley, I haave no doubt Cotto will be a tough fight for PBF or anybody at 147 for that matter.

    This is hilarious. Mayweather can talk all the **** he talks and some people applaud him. Miguel Cotto play with Gomez tonight and all of the sudden he is wrong. Don't you remember Gomez saying he was the biggest strongest man. I will expain this to you Margo Fans. Williams beat Margo. Quintana beat Williams. Quintana lasted 5 rounds with Cotto. Any questions?
    I think Cotto will knock him out. But in case Margarito can take his punches. I have to remind you. Right now, not in the past. Mosley is superior to Margo. And Cotto won clearly.

    Mosley >> Margo. But he's also old. It was far from a convincing win for Cotto. More like a running-fast from the terminator that Cotto was supposed to be.

    hey I swaer I thought the same thing a ****ing Statute with no alternate rythyms or moves. There is no improvisation in their fighting styles its like a guy following a script that suddenly has to ad lib and cant do it. Cintron was a MUMMY out there.

    Biggest names in MArgo resume: Cintron, Clottey, Williams, Santos, Lujan, Randall

    Cotto resume: Torres (actual champion), Malinaggi (actual champion), Quintana (actual champion), Judah, Mosley, Urkal.

    Cotto just boxed him because Mosley was supoosed to be the boxer. He got a UD. By the way he beat DLH twice. And Floyd only got a SD against DLH. If I go by your way of thinking. Then DLH was old too. And Floyd is supposed to be the P4P king. So, what happen???

    I hate to bust your bubble, but Floyd only made about 2 million dollars for his WWE spectacle...not 20 million like some thought, it was a publicity stunt.:D

    1st of all Evangelist was in his corner and 2nd he did take Gomez seriously, thus his fantastic shape. Was he a little over cofident?, maybe...but he didn't clown or try to showboat, just business as usual.

    True. Plus, that only proves Floyd overpaid. I mean Floyd is a great athlete but a lot of great athletes out there deserve money too. And I am not Talking Cotto. He is getting his Money. Not only with his fight. Also Miguel Cotto productions, Miguel Cotto everlast boxing shoes. Miguel Cotto Ecko clothing line. And a few other things

    Cotto didnt win easy vs a OLD Mosley. Margo losing to Williams who lost to Quintana who lost to Cotto has NO bearing on what would happen between Margo and Cotto. Too many factors when in to the outcomes off all those fights.

    with that being said, I think that Margo is a tough guy, but not a great fighter. I think that Cotto's SKILL and TALENT will be too much for Margo.

    Before the fights with Judah and Mosley I would have picked Margo to manhandle Cotto. But now I think that Cotto would handle the pressure.
