    I'd like to see Tony fight Williams asap. I would imagine he wants to redeem himself from that loss last year against Paul. I would also love to see him fight Zab; which alot of people last year said would never happen, so I'm actually pulling for Judah to win so Tony can maybe get a fight with him and beat him out of the game. Berto's standing around as well, so maybe that fight will get made, though Berto better be ready or he's going to get trounced; by Tony or Cotto.


    As for Cotto, maybe get another fight before he faces Tony again. He will need to build back up his confidence{assuming he lost any} before facing the one guy who broke him. I definately see a rematch, but I don't see it being in Cotto's best interest right now to jump right back in there with the Tornado.

    I'd like to see Cintron/Cotto and I get the feeling that will be his next fight, maybe like a PR showdown? Again, Berto could possibly get a fight with Cotto, though I think Cintron, or the winner of Clottey/Judah, is the best bet for Berto right now imo.

    Very thick in the WW department; lots of potential great fights.

    I'd say he should rematch williams, but he'd get beat again in that I think. People keep on saying the only reason why margo lost is because he started so slow, well one could argue that the only reason it became close is cause paul took a few of the mid rounds off, and then basically dominated the 12th round to win the fight. its not as if margo had figured paul out and just battered him from post to pillar in the last few rounds, paul fought a very good strategic fights knowing which rounds he had to take and when it counted the most in the 12th he took it. Paul has an extremely sturdy chin as well, so I don't see a late tko for margo happening in that fight but it would most likely go the distance with paul taking the decision again.

    I believe Margarito will go for the highest buck. Margarito from here on out will look at two thing's money than retirement.He's proved he is very tough now he needs that big ass payday to send him off. So with that I believe he will either fight Mayweather or Oscar.

    Voted for Williams, but it'll be Clottey-Judah I reckon.

    Margarito is the logical fight for ODLH to retire, and I think it'd be a good one, but don't see Oscar taking it.

    PBF is all wrong for Tony and'll win a wide decision, but I'd still like to see it just in case. That's a fight for later after Margarito really puts a case for the WW crown IF he could get by Williams.

    would never happen though. And it would be a frustrating night for MArgo unless he put in lots of bodywork in ealry

    I would like to watch a rematch between Margarito and Paul. I think that Margarito can win this one, knowing that after loosing the first half of the fight he could adjust in the late rounds, but it was just that too late. The result could be different if the fight was at 15 rounds.

    The best fight for Margarito's bank account would be De La Hoya, but I really feel disappointed when I read that De La Hoya is searching for fighting smaller guys like Manny. I would suggest him to fight the winner of Calderon and Cazares . I remember De La Hoya indicating sometime ago (I believe last year) that he wanted to retire with a big fight either at England or Mexico. Well, this is his opportunity to fight at "La Plaza de Toros" with Margarito who should be sending him to definite retirement. Actually, I believe Cotto can beat De La Hoya, which may be a good choice for Cotto's come back.

    DLH must be looking for small guys with big names. That's why the names of Hatton and Pacquiao have come up. And yeah... (ha-ha)... it's only a matter of time before he calls out Calderon. If the Golden Boy really wants to cement his legacy, he should pick on someone his own size, like Margarito. But then again, Oscar doesn't want to leave boxing with a major league ass-kicking.
