We all love Cotto but I think Tony beats him. You guys think Cotto wins. SIG bet time. I've been waiting ages for this,I think Titofan and I have had to wait over a year and have been talking about this bet since then!
It's finally a reality! You guys are my boys but come July 26,Antonio Margarito will win.:D:D
Are you kidding ?? there actually fighting on July 26th ?? wow what a fight i certainly wouldn't want to bet on that one thats 50-50 fight IMO. Margarito wins in a brawl, Cotto wins if he uses his boxing skills.Quote:

I think also Cotto being shorter hits much harder to the body, and who knows how Margarito deals with body punches like Cotto's? I don't know if he's ever been in there with a true body puncher. Another factor IMO is Cotto's jab, I think Margarito would be eating it all night because Cotto is so much faster than him, and he punches with much straighter punches. I am not saying Cotto can't lose this fight, but I have a hard time seeing it. There is a reason Margarito has 5 loses and Cotto is undefeated.
For the first time I will bet . but only because is with you.Quote:

be nice I know I will be.:angel:
This isn't the time that we can compare Cotto with Cintron guys , for me he even hit hard , dont have any defense and speed , in a bad situation doesn't come with plan b or c and don't have boxing , all those features that i mentioned , Cotto have it and each time that comes to fight comes with something different , so each time is getting much better that everybody expect of him ........Lets see with what Margarito comes in that fight....... " QUE VIVA NUESTRO CAMPEON COTTO "......:cool:

Margarito is going to be a tough assignment but I figure the way Miguel attacks, the length of Tony's arms and wide punches, the way Tony likes to fight on the inside exchanging punch for punch and the fact Miguel is a murderous body puncher all favor Cotto.
Cotto is stone faced, Margarito can't get in his head and if he did, I doubt it would be to his advantage as IMO it would only seem to piss off a guy who punches harder than ANYONE Margarito has ever set foot in the ring with.....yes that does include De la Hoya.
I can see Miguel boxing beautifully and really slowing Margarito down with the accumulation of punishment to the body AND the head....Margarito's defense for left hooks is his chin and Cotto ain't the kind of guy to use that strategy against.
Cintron was scared of Margarito and he was also an emotional fighter. When you're scared your punches aren't sharp and when you're emotional you let momentum become a factor and your thoughts and feelings about the fight become more obvious giving your opponent a window into your soul where he can forsee you giving up when he lands punches. Miguel Cotto never gets scared and he never changes his expression which means it's harder to figure out what he's thinking and feeling.
GOOD ANALYSIS.......:cool:Quote:

Cotto without too much hesitation. Very good fight though.
Cotto will be backpedaling against Margarito the entire night when the fight happens. Cotto will use his boxing skills and better than average defense to keep Margarito at bay and come out with a unanimous decision.
I was impressed with Tony last night...but Cotto is just awesome. Tony will be awkward for him, but I'll take your bet anyways...and bank up some great rep points in the process when Cotto UD's him. ;DQuote:

Im picking Margarito in this one. One of Cotto's greatest advantages is his ability to break another fighters will. However I don't see him ever breaking Margarito's will, not only does he have a strong chin he has a strong will and never for one second feels like he is out of the fight. It will be a battle of wills and Margarito WILL test Miguel Cotto.
That said, the only way Margarito wins this match is by knockout. there's no chance in h.e.double hockey sticks Margarito is going to outbox Cotto.
Great to see you my friend. FINALLY we can bet. This is going to be my best moment since being a boxing fan,better than MAB v EM1 and Rafa v Vazquez! Amazing!Quote:
