Margarito by close decision.

Finito and El Terrible - from what I gather Floyd wanted a fight with Cotto in 2005. Arum said Cotto wasn't ready, which to be fair, probably wasn't the right time for the fight. Cotto or Margarito versus Floyd was the fight to make in 2007/2008. I remember that those were the fights everyone wanted to see. At the time, Cotto was just coming off a big win over Shane Mosley. It's the fight everyone wanted to see and Floyd instead fought Ricky Hatton at 147 and then retired from boxing.

I'm not Puerto Rican and I don't understand how you can root for Margarito. To me, he's got to be one of the worst characters in boxing right now.

If I was Cotto I would have grilled Marg on the hand wraps, how could he not have known what was happening to his own hands? I would also have said that eye socket is going to get popped! I would also have said that “we are going to make sure that you have no hand wraps in the dressing room as we will watch you closely and you will lose cheater”.
