Thread: Possible Margarito VS Cotto?

How intriguing is this match-up after watching their latest fights..

i mean, who the FUCK wants to fight margarito after what he just did to cintron.. He took cintron's shots and kept coming and pursued his game plan until he reach his goal/stoppage..

I think cotto/margarito would be a fantastic matchup for a June/July card.. Hoping Margarito wins, but if Cotto wins that will only make pressure Mayweather even more to put up his titles for a Cotto bout

The fight will be in July

Hey Majesty!
How do you like them apples?

And I told you they would fight.

WAR COTTO!

Now Cotto has to train since he did not train for Alfonso Gomez

Cotto will prevail if he fights Margarito.
As I've said before the only boxer I can see beating Cotto is PBF if they fight this year.
But again time can beat PBF and the more the time passes the better the chances are that Cotto can beat PBF.


I'm not too sure how 154 would suit Cotto being that he's like 5' 7" but I think he beats Forrest and Philips at 154 and a handful of the top guys.

This is going to be FOTY. My 2 fave fighterss and TOP2 ww FIGHTING EACH OTHER!!WOWHWOWHWOWOHWHWWH1!!!

And I love Miguel but Tony is going to KTFO him out.No doubt about it. If Cotto boxes,he'll get trapped on the ropes and destroyed. If he brawls,he'll go the way of Cintron. Tony has fought bigger,taller,slicker guys,faster guys and more importantly,more powerful guys(Cintron sticks out). Had Kermit hit ANYONE else in the whole division with those shots,including Cotto,they would have been out of there. Instead,Tony smiled,took them and wore him out.

Oh shit I'm surprise with both of you. I though it was the other way around o well. Mick has the right answer as far as Cotto- Margarito

Don't get me wrong Puya,you know I love Cotto but Tony's style is all wrong for him. Factor in Marg's chin and stamina and the fact that Cotto has been wobbled by Judah,who doesn't hit as hard as a naturally strong Ww lke Tony and I just think Tony wins.

I'll be rooting for both,maybe a bit more for Margarito because he's not as popular and has never gotten the credit he deseves. ALWAYS in exciting fights. Tough as nails. Punching him looks like punching a brick wall! I love the trademark thing he does,when you land cleanely and he nods and smiles thn wacks you in the face. Classic Tony.

And IF Cotto comes into to throw bodyshots,he'll be eating them back and eating uppercuts too,which he is wide open to.If he boxes,like I siad,Tony will trap him on the ropes and do devestation.

I predicted Margarito to beat Cintron. Bu I just can't see Margo winning with Cotto in the ring. Cotto was hurt by fast guys with good boxing ablities (note Cotto was fighting reckless with Torres and leaned his lesson) something Margo doesn't have witch is good boxing and speed. he has power and reach. I'm not saying it will be an easy fight but thinking that Margarito would put Cotto into the ropes thats crazy unless Cotto get caught other than that I see Cotto's jab on Margos face all night every time he tries to go inside. And it gets worse like you say Cotto is open for uppercuts the same for Margo is widely open for Body shots.

But we can all agree it will be a great fight.

Dammit I can rep you I had to spread love around. at least I could rep Mick

Well,Tony handled Cintron's jab pretty well And Cintron hits harder than Cotto imo. And Margarito will get Cotto on the ropes at some points,if you don't think that,you're crazy!

And I woudn't call Demarcus Corley or Ricardo Torres fast Having said that,yo're right, Marg can br hit to the body and if Cotto can start a body attack early,it will slow Tony down late on. The problem is,to land to the body,he's going to have to come inside. Margarito is a monster on the inside. He's taller,bigger and stronger.

Either way,even though I think Tony wins,I think it'll be great to see! Let the real men fight each other at WW I'll rep you later,need to spread some around.

i think this will be a really good fight. Everyone talks about cotto-pbf but i think this will be the most entertaining in terms of two great fighters having an all out war!

I like Cotto more than Margarito as a fighter, but am not sure how Cotto would cope with a continuous assault like the one Margarito showed last night.

The only person I think could handle the Margarito that fought last night would be Floyd, only because he does not mind giving the fans a boring fight and would be running the whole first half of the fight and playing safety first.

Cotto has got that pride in him that would lead him into exchanging with Margarito. I dont think there is anyone at 147 that can really hurt Margarito, much less KO him. But I think Margarito could really hurt and wear down Cotto.


This would be a fantastic fight for sure! Fuck Mayweather, let the division move on without him

this would be a great fight, two tough, proud warriors who work both the head and body. these two are seen as tough fight anyone type guys unlike money mayweather who's so far stayed away from both of them. its tough to call when you break it down but i think cotto might just edge it

Here we go again!!!!LOL

As far as some of you guys(randomly) Cotto will never win a fight. IT started (I took notice) since Corley. OH well looks like you will never learn.

Possible?!?! The fight was damn near signed last night!

Hey Gamo , i think that I'm in disagree with you in this time my friend first , sometimes i asking myself of how and with who Cintron have all of KO that have , because last time with Feliciano he didn't even hurt him and that happened with Margarito in the first fight and the second last night , second , we cant still now remembering the Cottos flaws because he are been getting much better since his last 6 fights and also is good when you see how a boxer can control his fight and focus when feel Wobble and how his chin assimilate , but he are getting better his defense very good now , but ask yourself of how Margarito can control his fight when is in a bad situation and when feel Wobble? I really never seen him like that and that is the intrigue question.........
