I want to change Margarito's nickname
The Tijuana Tornado just doesn't seem right. A tornado is an intense, but short-lived phenomenon with a relatively short life span. No... Margarito is something else. To those who saw Terminator I, you must remember how the Terminator kept coming after Sarah Conner relentlessly, no matter what anyone did to him. As long as those scary red eyes were lit, you knew he would keep on coming.
Last night Cotto did all he could. He boxed, he jabbed, he hit Margo with all kinds of head shots. He used his defense. He moved around the ring. And the damn guy just kept coming and coming. It was brutal. (sigh)
Another thing... tornados are fast and furious. The Terminator was slow, but relentless and unstoppable. Yeah... he's more like the Terminator than a tornado.

What an excellent analogy...
I agree totally. Can someone get this request to Marga. He seems like the type of discerning person who might even consider it. As you said, it is truly fitting, without all of the corny one-liners the Terminator used to say...
Big Ups!
