Exactly will be one hell of a fight and build up, are they big in their relative countries?
As far as Home country Oh no doubt about it On Cotto's end,He could walk on water and not get wet In Puerto Rico.......as well as over here (States) ;D.I'd say they are both house hold names in the Mayweather House....Mr.Step aside himself as opposed to agreeing to meet the winner in mega welter Champion Clash.Margarito is abit under the radar as far as Main stream cross over media but The fans know of him...or should!Both are due and deserve as much acknowlegment as they recieve....Love this match up,My 'name' is riding on it ;D
Re: Looks Like There WILL Be A Countdown For COTTO - MARGARITO
Countdowns usually rely heavily on a narrator anyways, so any language barrier wont be a factor. I read a few weeks back they were doing the countdown for this on one of my ventures to the Cotto forum. Very good news.

This will be the first fight I am not going to log on to my PC to see, or hope TSN shows it here in Canada (only to be delayed by something stoopid like Nascar).
Have already got my friends place and big screen TV booked for it. No way in hell I am missing this fight!

Re: "News Flash" - HBO will do a countdown for Cotto-Margarito!!
Sometimes I wonder about the cerebral capabilities of those making the decisions at HBO Sports/Boxing. For example, Larry Merchant has been stumping for a fight between Cotto and Mayweather, mostly after fights either of them are involved in. Most will agree that although Cotto is deserving, what is going to make the fight happen is more exposure for Cotto outside the hard core boxing fan. So, it logically follows that a countdown show would provide the needed exposure to Cotto AND Margarito (whom, I don't care what anyone says, Floyd ducked). So, the countdown is a no-brainer. The fact that this will be one of the all-time great Puerto-Rico vs. Mexico fights makes it even more logical. I don't know what HBO was thinking.

I believe it was Showtime that did a Raf v Izzy mini-series before the third fight. No English, but great series.
CutMeMick posted it.

Re: "News Flash" - HBO will do a countdown for Cotto-Margarito!!
Just for all the brit fight fans.
Setanta has signed up this fight which will mean you`ll need a subscription with them in order to watch the fight of 2008.
Was just about to cancel mine after the pavlik-lockett showdown until it came on about cotto-marg as well as torres-holt!!
I just watched Countdown to Cotto/Margarito - Anyone Else?
Well I just watched the countdown show, and I think they did great job with it.
I got the chills watching it, and thinking about what is going to happen one week from tonight.
It was great to see a side of Miguel, that we don't get to see. I loved it when they showed him goofing around, and laughing with his friends.
Of course my favorite part, was when Miguel had his pants pulled down while he was cooking. :lickish:
It was touching to see Tony get emotional when talking about when his brother was killed. I teared up a bit. :eek:
All I know, is that this is going to be the longest week, waiting for this fight to come.
What did you guys think of the show?
Oh well, time for me to go and watch it again, I have to put the pulling the pants down scene in slow motion, to see if I can see anything. ;D
Re: I just watched Countdown to Cotto/Margarito - Anyone Else?
It was pretty good. I liked it
Re: I just watched Countdown to Cotto/Margarito - Anyone Else?
I have to wait for an upload :eek:
Re: I just watched Countdown to Cotto/Margarito - Anyone Else?
it was pretty cool. Nice to see a countdown show where there isnt any animosity between them.
Re: I just watched Countdown to Cotto/Margarito - Anyone Else?
I might just stay up the entire 5 hours to see this countdown show. It shouldn't take that long.
52 minutes! Excellent.
Re: Countdown for Cotto-Margarito!! Let's talk here and post vids.
What a countdown, really enjoyed the way it was put together and how they talked about the rivalry between the 2 countries.
:appl:
Got really pumped up while I was seeing kept contemplating the outcome as I have been for sometime now but I gotta back my boy Cotto.
