I'll tell you exactly why Margarito would rather fight Cotto. Styles. I think Margarito loses to both. But against Cotto he thinks he has a chance. Cotto like Margarito is a slow starter. He's also not hard to hit and just comes forward. Margarito thinks he's the stronger fighter so that's what he wants. He wants an easy target to hit. He wants a shoot out. Because Cotto came up in weight Margarito believes (he's wrong) that he will be able to bully Cotto. Against Williams it's a different story. Williams, unlike Cotto did not move up in weight. He's always been at 147. Margarito doesn't look at him as the smaller fighter. Also Williams jab and hand speed are his biggest assets. There also what give Margarito the most problems. The potential of Williams popping that jab in Margarito's face all night is there. And Margarito knows it. Williams is no defensive genius, but he's a little harder to hit than Cotto. Bottom line is Margarito would rather face Cotto over Williams because in his head he thinks he has a better chance of winning against Cotto.
