    Boxing is just a steaming heap of crap anymore. The Bob Arum fixorama isn't even worth a trip to the Port-a-john

    ya i know, ive been feeling the same way...especially recently. But i dont think there will be any shanannigans with these two fighters tonight, except a loaded glove or 2, (no mayweathers or hopkins in the ring 2night). Im amped!

    I used to love the fight game years ago, but Arum and his posse of stooges, along with the Golden Boy clowns have ruined boxing even more (if that's possible). I ran into Victor Ortiz a while back and he sort of gave me hope some good guys are still in the sport, but guys like him are few and far between

    Love boxing. Rarely miss going to the fights in Vegas. Am disgusted the scumbag Arum is giving the cheater Margarito multiple 7 figure paydays when he should be banned. Hope Cotto gets his revenge. The NYC Ricans are going to be in full force tonight.

    hardly

    im headed over to the garden in about an hour...4th time seeing cotto fight live...3rd time in the garden

    cant say i know the details of cottos last deal with top rank...but ive heard some rumors that it might be up after the year...and hed be free to go to golden boy....and golden boy could make a fight with floyd for him if he beats tony...so there could be an interesting subplot there with arum.....

    like ive said....when u watch what cotto was doing to tony through the first 6 rounds of the first fight....shane mosley picked up the blueprint and added the wrinkle he and cotto needed to beat him......shane clinched when neccessary....you cant keep letting tony come forward....cotto would be tagging tony and then start back pedaling towards the ropes....u cant do that...shane fired off and came forward not letting tony come at him and get off.....

    cotto is pretty prideful and stubborn...he doesnt clinch...so itll be interesting to see what he does....need to keep off the ropes and i hope hes in better condition this time around too

    Arum would throw his own family in front of a train to make a buck....giving Margarito another shot tells you something about him. This might come out racist (not meant that way) but the fight game needs another popular US white fighter. Some have been pimping this Mike Lee guy, but who knows

    Arum is scum. There is no such thing as a great US white fighter. Last one was Rocky Balboa.

    I lean Cotto. Margarito isn't that good when he doesn't have plaster in his gloves.

    I like Cotto. Marg. has no pop in his punches without cement in his gloves. And why is he always wearing sunglasses? I figure it's either because light bothers his eye or because he looks a little like columbo with his reconstructed cyborg thing. Either way, his eye is f'd up. It'll prbly be a doctor stoppage after he gets tagged a couple of times in that wreck of an eyeball because the NY commsion is afraid it will fall out and they'll wave it early to be on the safe side.

    lee is a sideshow act in my eyes...guy was like the notre dame boxing champion or some shit...hes a guy that arum can sell...like zbikowski...like he sold yuri foreman to the nyc jewish community....like he sells pawel wolak to the polish in new jersey....sold john duddy to the irish crews.....

    the fight of the night on the undercard is the wolak/rodriguez rematch....first fight was on friday night fights and is a contender for fight of the year.....i had a few hundred on delvin rodgriguez at +320 i think it was...i thought he was robbed.....i think with a few adjustments he can make this a much easier fight.....but wolak is one of those guys that keeps coming no matter how many times he gets hit....dude had a ******* disgusting welt...one that rivaled hasim rahmans

    I got Margarito +180. That whole plaster in the gloves vs. Cotto was never proven.

    Cotto makes 5 m + Margarito 2.5 m + I would think Cotto will win somehow and can be promoted Margarito Eye problem don't think so.

    Like Cotto in this fight but he must box more in the rematch. Margarito is a pure pressure fighter who you have to box early in the fight then pressure down the end!

    If you guys were watching the pre-fights there was something going on in Margarito's dressing room with his hands being wrapped....there were more guys in there watching then I think in the arena

    around +140, or +120 for 11.5 on Bodog, are there better prices out there? SBR book hates boxing, not even an over/under for this fight or props.

    I personally think under 11.5 rounds is a good bet, but certainly nowhere near a lock. I may bet it last second. Won't make any other bets on the fight.

    That's just because of his past with illegal wraps
