Will Cotto Vs. Margarito go the full 12Rds.?

I'm putting a bit on Cotto by TKO.

 

its going to be a brutal contest

 

I pick Tony by tko or ko

 

This fight will be too unpredictable. i would be suprised if one of there corner pulled them out RTD. this will be a pittbull fight with 2 hungry fighters. it is possible for it to go to decision, because both have taken a lot of punishment before.

all i say is that i changed ma mind and wont be putting big money on this fight. maybe £50 on cotto to win.

 

if it does go the distance it will probably be one of the most brutal fights this year. Cant wait for this **** to start this reminds me of Oscar V Tito but its gonna be way better imo

 

Well, let's look at some recent fights which defied odds.

Pavlik/Taylor 2. No one expected 12 rounds. It went 12.

Quintana/Williams 2. No one expected an early stoppage. It ended in 1.

RJJ/Trinidad. No one expected 12 rounds. It went 12.

Just based on history, it looks like what you expect won't happen. :good

 

I think Cotto is going to put on a clinic and stop Margarito in 10.

I dont think he will ko Margo, but i can see Cotto busting Margo up and the referee having to call time.

 

This is how i see it. There is a clear difference in class between the two. Most people think Cotto is just going to come down to Margs level and brawl. I don't see it that way. I see Cotto trying to outbox Marg. Of course, Cotto's warrior mentality will force him into some exchanges but if he's smart, he will use his superior boxing skills. It's like when you play Shaq, you don't try to outmuscle him. You try to outquick him. It would play right into Marg's hands if Cotto decides to brawl straight up.

 

I see a stoppage in favor of Cotto, that GASH that Santos opened on Margo's right brow is right in line for Cotto's left hook.

 

If it goes inside, Cotto owns him. He has a decent inside defence and Marg's offensive arsenal is the definition of sloppy, Cotto's hands are very fast and he'll nail him with quick combo's like Clottey did, only this time they will be precise and powerful in impact.

I realistically don't see Cotto having any trouble at all. TKO 7.

 

vazquez/marquez 3 went 12 so who knows,personally i dont see it goin 12 tho

 

i dont think it will go 12. these 2 guys are to macho with a warriors mentality! then again, they are both tough as hell. cotto ko/tko late IMO!

 

Somebody is getting stopped.
