Cotto V Margarito Who Will Win And How?

[Spicoli]

Well so far there are 8 votes each one way or another. Strange thing was I thought that Cotto was going in with more of the reputation for being the puncher but I see that more people have gone for a Toni KO win than a Cotto one. Or is this based on the iron chin of Toni rather than the punch power?

I have always contended that a strong chin is great...although it can be over taxed & faulty if not combined with a tremendous offense.....Imo,Margarito brings the combo

Honestly,I think Cotto has a far better chance to the ribcage....

....the way Toni stands it's amazing no one has rocked him with an uppercut

Is anyone going to make poll as to who picks who...for the fight?

We need someone to keep a log.

This is Cotto's chance to show the world the all-around boxing ability he possesses. If you are a Cotto fan, you know he can't go in there and slug it out with Margarito. If Cintron couldn't KO Margarito (and Kermit landed basically at will with power shots), then Cotto will not so easily. I just hope Cotto's detractors will not criticize him when he decisions Margarito in a brilliant boxing display. In boxing, good fighters have a plan "b" when plan "a" doesn't work and for Cotto, plan "a" will not work before he even steps in the ring!! The problem I had with Trinidad (as much as he thrilled me) is that there was never a plan "B." I believe Cotto has the boxing IQ to display a plan "b" or "c" if necessary. He's no robot. Ask Judah.

Miguel Cotto UD.

I cant think that this fight will end just by UD , they both are gladiators , hit hard , one of them will put first the respect and who make the first mistake , is who will have more problem...............
To me this fight will end by KO or UD , i know Margaro is strong , have good uppercut , good resistance in making pressure , but Cotto will comes in tremendous physical shape for give a great fight , everybody has been commenting that Cotto will outbox Margaro and he will win by UD , we have to understand that Cotto is smaller than Margaro , so obviously he in the first 5-6 rounds will have to fight most of time inside , working to the body and counter punching to wear out Margaro a bit for then outbox Margaro and dominate all others round by stoppage or UD , we have to have in our mind that probably Margaro could take use his reach and outbox Cotto in this fight , something odds in him , but Margaro Team know that they cant risk completely in making a brawl with Cotto , Cotto has the advantage , if Margaro try in give everything very fast , Cotto by KO........................

This fight could looks like :
Cotto vs Kelson Pinto
Cotto vs Victoriano Sosa
Cotto vs N`Dou
Boxers more taller than Cotto and some similar Margaro Styles...........

The option I wanted wasn't there.

I pick the fans to win by way of great and exciting fight.

[Bx730NY]

I think that if Cotto wins by KO, it's either to the body or by TKO on cuts that get out of hand.

[Phil]

really like both these fighters, I think Margarito might take Cotto
out RD 6-8

[emanuel]

COTTO will ko him in about 8th round
if you remeber MARGARITO almost lost to JOSHUA CLOTTEY
the african boxer I thought he won but MARGARITO got lucky

[Mar]

I'm still up in the air on this one......but i just choose margarito cause i'm not really sure how cotto is going handle tony's punch and the amount of them he throws. If he truly got rid of the late start bug it might be a hard storm to wheather.

[El Kabong]

It's got to be Cotto by UD because Toni can't box and he has never had to deal with that amount of pressure, power, or body attack!


Cotto has dealt with power and he has boxed his way out of danger.....Toni will get knocked down and then lose on points!

[C-Lo]

WOW! This forum is so torn on this fight! I just got that much more excited!

I chose Cotto by Decision. I feel if Cotto slugs it out with Margo it will favor Margo. Cotto needs to box and destroy Margo's body. Did I mention I was excited yet?!

Clottey is faster and better defensively than Cotto. Cotto can box, but his main weapon is his power, which will be neutralized by Tony's chin. I think this fight is a toss up.
