Cotto vs Margarito - the rematch - Saturday night chat/fight thread

[CFH]

It's been a while since I was nervous before a fight...

Sneak right!

Sing it like Francis Scott Key wrote it...

You mean, with the other three of the four stanzas included, and no music?

[marbleheadmaui]

Cotto is already on the retreat and is tyouching the ropes.

[generalbulldog]

This is just like how the first fight went. Margo is just smiling with all those hard hits that Cotto lands.

Happy to hear all four verses and Scott had set it to a previously known tune IIRC

[CFH]

Just like the 1st fight.

1-0 Cotto

[OumaFan]

Cotto needs to stand his ground. Attack a bit.

1-0 Cotto but a bit nervy for his fans.

[marbleheadmaui]

I just don't think Cotto has the legs for this for twelve rounds.

[CFH]

2-0 Cotto, but he genuinely looks scared of Margarito.

[marbleheadmaui]

Garcia is exactly right margariot is following, not cutting the ring off. margarito needs to step to his right just a trad.

I agree completely.

[generalbulldog]

Margo still has his chin. Its going to be a long night for Cotto.

[ICB]

Good 2 rounds for Cotto, but im still anxious.

[OumaFan]

I hate holding but if I'm his trainer I say go to work on the inside with your shorter shots and then hold. Don't try to get away with your legs.
