    Its in there best Interest...as well as ours. Previously Ive heard the Idea that because both were predominatly spanish speaking, A Countdown 24/7 would go by the wayside and would be a hard push......I dont care who speaks Spanish and/or english....This one speaks Great Fight all over,Thats what I care about!!

    I don't care if I have to turn on subtitles, or get my buddy over here to translate, I want the Countdown show. Fighting doesn't have a language.

    I don't know about Margarito but no disputing how big Cotto is in Puerto Rico they go crazy for him. Even the ones in New York.

    Sometimes I wonder about the cerebral capabilities of those making the decisions at HBO Sports/Boxing. For example, Larry Merchant has been stumping for a fight between Cotto and Mayweather, mostly after fights either of them are involved in. Most will agree that although Cotto is deserving, what is going to make the fight happen is more exposure for Cotto outside the hard core boxing fan. So, it logically follows that a countdown show would provide the needed exposure to Cotto AND Margarito (whom, I don't care what anyone says, Floyd ducked). So, the countdown is a no-brainer. The fact that this will be one of the all-time great Puerto-Rico vs. Mexico fights makes it even more logical. I don't know what HBO was thinking.

    I believe it was Showtime that did a Raf v Izzy mini-series before the third fight. No English, but great series.

    As far as Home country Oh no doubt about it On Cotto's end,He could walk on water and not get wet In Puerto Rico.......as well as over here (States) .I'd say they are both house hold names in the Mayweather House....Mr.Step aside himself as opposed to agreeing to meet the winner in mega welter Champion Clash.Margarito is abit under the radar as far as Main stream cross over media but The fans know of him...or should!Both are due and deserve as much acknowlegment as they recieve....Love this match up,My 'name' is riding on it

    Countdowns usually rely heavily on a narrator anyways, so any language barrier wont be a factor. I read a few weeks back they were doing the countdown for this on one of my ventures to the Cotto forum. Very good news.

    This will be the first fight I am not going to log on to my PC to see, or hope TSN shows it here in Canada (only to be delayed by something stoopid like Nascar).

    Have already got my friends place and big screen TV booked for it. No way in hell I am missing this fight!
