Why would Cotto stay inside against a guy whos only real hope of winning is to fight on the inside?

Cotto will box Marg.

Markus , how can you say that Cotto that has less reach will going to outbox Margaro with 5-6 inches more of reach , that doesnt have sense my friend , that is what im trying to explain on previous post , if Cotto mix some of his skills boxing is OK , but we never can imagine him outboxing Margaro in all fight bro , either in backwards movements , that could be an advantage for Margaro , if you want to punish your opponent with your great body punches with less reach , how can you hit that opponent ? on outside ? Think on that Markus..........................

And i dont know how can you give more possibility to Margaro winnning on inside , Cotto has more advantage by his shorts reach , it would be more effective than Margaro shots......................

---

Cotto is faster with a better jab and more skill.

How many fighters have you seen Marg outbox? not many he isnt a great boxer he doesnt have a good jab and doesnt punch fast enough. His whole game is fighting up close thats what he wants Cotto to do that will be Tonys plan to draw Cotto in and out war him. Team Cotto will saftey first get the W and box him by doing that you take away Tonys best weapon.

Just wait until fight night Cotto will box if he doesnt i feel it will spell doom.

Cotto is faster with a better jab Markus , but if he want wear out Margaros Stamina , he would not win with outboxing and jabbing in the whole fight , Margaro is an opponent with a great Stamina , Cotto must and need to avoid Margaros pressure in the latest rounds for win comfortable with his technicals boxing , and i don't taking away Margaros best weapon , his best weapons is the uppercuts and right hands where is more effective on outside by his reach.................

Yeah Markus , lets wait until fight we will see...................

It's not like the lower weights where you can keep going and going, many, many welterweights have failed when they attempted to move up to 160 and it's because the guys are so big there.

Paul Williams, Andre Berto, Mayweather (possibly) and I'm sure more will come along. But that's at least and probably more if he can score Mayweather, a year's worth of work there.

So your saying cotto will be at 147 for the rest of his career. All im saying is that his young and likely to clean out 147, its not that stacked anymore. Paul williams imo will move up, andre I do not think is ready for a cotto. floyd well his retired, if he fights cotto then good. if he doesnt then what? who else is there really for cotto? at 154 oscar is there, cotto can take that fight. but who else is at `154? Im just saying cotto is young, what if he is still growing and getting strong enough to be able to fight at 160. I just wonder cause after tony, cotto wont really have any competition besides maybe paul and floyd.

You never know that though. I'm not saying he'll be at 160 his whole career but there is no more depth at 154 then there is 147. Berto is on the verge of being a big time fighter, in about a years time he will be as ready as he will ever be to fight Cotto and that would be another super fight.

Cotto IMO , should have to clean up all in WW Div......, then can move up to JMW , he could make a good paper in that Div......is a great challenge in get there for him..................
