Kermit Cintron: "Margarito Will Stop Cotto"

Former welterweight champion Kermit Cintron is going against his countryman on July 26. Rather than go with his Puerto Rican countryman, Miguel Cotto, Cintron is picking Antonio Margarito to win by knockout.

“Do I want Cotto to win?” Cintron told The Reading Eagle. “Yes, he’s from the same country that I’m from. But a fighter like Margarito, he took every shot that I threw at him. Cotto is going to have a hard time in there with him. I think Margarito will stop Cotto.”

Margarito handed Cintron the only two losses of his career - both by knockout. The last defeat was on April 12, when Margarito stopped Cintron with a bodyshot in the sixth-round to capture the IBF welterweight title. Cintron wants to return in September after a minor operation to fix a torn ligament in his right hand.

“I’ll be in the gym training even harder than I did before,” Cintron said. “Plus, I still have the motivation. I have my wife Maria, (daughters) Denali and Savannah, and a son on the way. That’s a lot of motivation right there. I’ll definitely be back.”

He 'hopes' Margarito stops Cotto so that he doesn't look as bad! Fortunately for Miguel, he has a lot more mental strength than Cintron and should be able to deal with the threat that is the Tijuana Tornado.

Citron needs a heart transplant. Soon as he realizes it ain't gonna be a cakewalk, he starts to look scared.

This "Cotto will be stopped' is kinda pathetic if you ask me.

Like they say,... "if you can't beat 'em,.. just join them".

That's a natural thing for Cintron to say about his conquerer.

This is all politics.....#1 If Tony wins Kermit was right and no true harm done and Kermit feels better because he's not the only guy who would have been fucked up by Tony#2 If Cotto wins then he COULD take acception to Kermit's words therefore ensuring another title fight for Kermit Cintron.


Kermit is just hoping he can get a shot in the future

Well ,He also said that HE would stop Margarito:-X whoops.I think he is just happy to have someone asking him questions other than..."How many fingers,do you want to continue"??

Actually I too believe Margarito will TKO Cotto late in a fast paced Fight.

A must see for sure but Cotto I think is on a step above. I can understand where Cintron comes from but also on another level. I'm 50% rican 50% mexican. ITS GONNA BE A WAR my body hurts now just thinking about the way these two great champs work down stairs. Love them both

Not surprise to hear Cintron say that. He doesn't look as bad if Margarito manages to knock out Cotto

Cintron should move up to 154 and stop worryin bout the welterweights.
He could wreak havoc up there and is a BIG 147 lber anyway. Plus no matter what he can't beat Margarito, so thats kinda fucked.

Cintron is crazy. Cotto beats Margarito EASY. I've said it before. He will beat Margarito easy. Margarito will go straight at Cotto which is will be his downfall, don’t play drinking games with an alcoholic. You will lose.

I predict Cintron no matter who he fights next, will cry like someone stole his ice cream as soon as he gets hit hard, pull a white towel out of his shorts and throw it in himself.

But other then that, I respect him quite a bit. :rolleyes:

cintron (like many who defend him) doesnt realize he is garbage


the fact that margarito dominated him makes him think that margarito must be great, but thats because cintron actually thinks he is decent...


it really just means that cintron is garbage ;)

I'm surprised Cintron could speak through the tears that always seem to be pouring down his face.
