Antonio Margarito vs Joshua Clottey 11-1-08

I would be really surprised if Miguel fights AM again.

 

Well, Cotto's numbers were pretty high (in overall and power punches) against Margarito....as I recall were higher than the Mosley fight despite the fact that it only went 11 (and Cotto didn't do all that much in that round).

Cotto had very high punch numbers to start the fight. I doubt he is as active early on in a rematch (some of it simply out of having even more respect/caution of Margarito).

I wouldn't be surprised if he spent more time in training on stamina, perhaps even try to come in a little lighter in a rematch.

 

If Cotto doesn't move as much he's getting stopped ealier this time around. He damn sure wasn't wasting all that energy moving around for nothing. He cannot trade with Margarito. He's got two choices, take a stand and trade, or stick and move. He get's put to sleep if he stands and trades.

Exactly. The only difference between these two is that Margarito (true to his mexican roots) is way more durable then Cotto is.
