Thread: Cotto: where does he go from here?

Should he rematch Margarito or take a tune up fight?

Well apparently Cotto and Margarito are going to be fighting on the same night in I think it was december and should they both win apparently they have agreed to go again which I would be happy to see.

Can Cotto reverse the result? Well I don't think he can stop Marg but if he can keep his head for 12 rounds I think that he can outbox him and take a decision.

i think there both fighting early next year and have there rematch if they both win. and cotto needs to take his small ass to the gym get in way better condition work on his stamina and stay off the damn ropes and try to keep the fight in the middle of the ring and i watch the fight again last night i aint never seen no one move so much in one fight i dont even think ali did cotto needs to smartin up

i think this is definatley a fight cotto could win, he outclassed Margarito but he got to tired

Margarito and Cotto are set to fight again summer 09 so it would be one fight for each, then each other.

I personally think Cotto should take on Berto (after he beats Forbes) or Cintron. It puts his name back on the market in a big way!

an esay 1st fight then margarito or another title holder

I don't know what fight everyone was watching but Cotto was winning the fight until he ran out of gas!

Michelle Cotta should stay away from Magarito and Williams. Though I wouldn't mind seeing him get knocked out again. So make the rematch happen, I'm all for it.

That is sort of true, but I was watching Cotto winning on points against a solid brick wall that was just waiting to squash him at the right time and it did.

Cotto needs a tune up before another Margarito.. He needs confidence boost before facing the beast of the division again..

As for Margarito on the other hand should fight Williams.. Margarito v Williams 2 will be for the WW best. and Margarito should forget Oscy cause it ain't gonna happen. Instead of bitching out he rather go after the man who owned him.. and that is Williams.. i don't know why there's very little on here talking about this fight.

If a rematch will immediately happen, the result would be like the 1st fight... Cotto must have tune up fight first...

No he wasn't IMO i thought the fight was even going into the 11th, Cotto badly faded after the 6th round and lost majority of the rounds after that.

I agree, Cotto was losing the fight when it was stopped, both in my mind and in those of the judges.

Cotto usually takes a round off here and there and when he took a round off vs Margarito that's when Tony jumped on him and Cotto had to keep moving and therefore never regained his power or his legs. But before the 7th round Cotto was taking Tony to school with counter shots and boxing skill. Margarito is a hell of a fighter no shame in losing to him.
