Cotto vs Margarito. December 3rd 2011. DONE

[Rantcatrat]

It's such a tough fight to pick for me. I thought Margarito for what he is and considering who he was up against actually looked pretty good in that fight against Pacquiao. On the other hand, I didn't think Cotto looked that great against Foreman and looked just alright against Mayorga. Yet, Cotto beat Foreman and Mayorga and Margarito was annihilated by Pacquiao. In my opinion, and it is disagreed with by some here, Margarito was being blown out by Cotto for the first half of their fight, and I believe Cotto would have won if he was being hit with bricks. The question is whether Margarito got into Cotto's head because of that or whether Cotto deep inside can chalk it up to Margarito's gloves and use this fight to take vengence. I really could see this going both ways. It's even close to the most significant fight at 154, but it's a big name fight with the potential to be a great fight too. I'm looking forward to it in an odd way.

I think it's going to be a great fight, really looking forward to this one. I see Marg's walking through his punches and winning in the late rounds.

I hope Cotto's cardio is much improved, there are times that he should be on his bicycle here. Still praying Cotto bludgeons this cheat.

[THE THIRD MAN]

I reckon Cotto stops Margo inside 5 rounds!
