date of September 17, 2011 in on the tentative schedule for the Boxing Calender
what are your thoughts on Top Rank making this fight happen for the fans and if
Miguel Cotto wins is that the redemption he needs to get his boxing career back

Best answers:
its nice match.
Hopefully Cotto gets his revenge. Bradley will chew Khan out!
I reckon Cotto will get his revenge but he won’t knock out Margarito.
I reckon Cotto would win certainly, and a KO is a possibility. Even if Margarito stays on his feet, not many refs would allow the kind of punishment Margarito got in his last fight. If Cotto can caus the same hurt, he can win by TKO.
As for Bradley-Khan, I reckon Bradley should be a slight favorite here. Khan can be outboxed and I reckon he still lacks the patience to handle Tim Bradley.

I couldn’t be more pleased as a boxing fan that one of my favorite fighters (Cotto) is going to get his chance to ruin the man who I felt cheated against him (Look at Cotto’s face at the end. Fists don’t usually cut open a man’s face that terrible).
I don’t reckon beating up a guy like Margarito would get his career back on the track that is was prior to facing him, but it would erase that stigma of the first fight and would motivate Cotto to keep on fighting.
He could get the larger fights, with Mayweather or even a rematch with Pacquiao, for example, sans the weight draining crap.
For the BQ: I have to favor Khan in this one, though I wouldn’t be shocked to see Bradley win it, as Bradley uses his head (literally) to win fights in not only a fight of the year candidate, but also a bout that would crown a linear champ at junior-welterweight.
Thanks for sharing, and excellent to have you back.
I hope Cotto does serious hurt to Margarito.I’m a Mayweather fan but i was glad to see Margarito take a beating at the hands of Pacquiao but he should have never been allowed that fight anyway.Cotto has to win this fight and he has to win it convincingly,if he was to lose then it would be a huge dent in Cotto’s career and it would give the cheato Margarito the satisfaction of saying he doesn’t need to cheat to beat Miguel Cotto.Both fighters aren’t the same physically and mentally now as they were when they first fought but it’s a fantastic fight to look forward to and i hope Cotto wins!
Mayweather vs Cotto would be a excellent fight for Floyd and Floyd only.I don’t reckon Cotto could land enough punches on Mayweather to make any impression on the fight and i see Mayweather winning a clear and simple UD but i wouldn’t like to see Cotto discomfited like Marquez was when he fought Floyd.
Martinez vs Cotto is a realistic fight.Cotto holds a title at 154 and Sergio is a natural 154 fighter so there’s no reason the fight can’t happen but then again Bob Arum promotes Cotto lol!.I reckon Sergio would win the fight if it did happen but what a statement it would be for Cotto if he was to beat many people’s #2 p4p fighter Sergio Martinez.It would place Cotto right back on the map again!!
BQ) I’m from Britain and i’m a Khan fan so my answer is somewhat bias but from what i’ve seen of Bradley,i just don’t see him defeating Khan.Khan’s main weakness is power punchers and i don’t reckon Bradley has the power to place Khan on the back foot the way Maidana did.Khan will be to quick for Tim and i reckon Khan’s power is underrated by most people.My prediction is that Khan will win by late stoppage but if it goes the distance then Khan wins by a clear UD!
I like the fact that Cotto will be another shot at Margarito. In the end though, I don’t know what it proves. Yes, it would be awesome to see Margarito get beat down by the man he “cheated” (in most boxing fans opinion). I will take it a bit further…To me Margarito stole Cotto’s undefeated status and changed him forever as a fighter. If Cotto wins the rematch, that would be nice…if he loses, it doesn’t legitamize Margarito’s previous win…it just shows how much their first fight hurt Cotto. Cotto still has the same heart he always had but watching Cotto vs. Jennings, Clottey, Pacquiao, Foreman, and Mayorga anyone can see he lost a lot in that Margarito fight. I hope Cotto gets a nice payday for this too. The shame is that Margarito will too.
As for Bradley/ Khan…I can’t wait. This fight is the moment of truth or should I say the moment of proof. This is where Bradley proves what I have always said about him. He is the king of 140 and worthy of fighting Mayweather or Pacquiao. I reckon he took on all available opponents at 140…he isn’t unproven like Berto. He took on undefeated titlist Devon Alexander and boxed perfectly in a hideous fight. He never was in distress or on the terrible end of this match. Khan, on the other hand, barely survived Maidana…and in my opinion did not look fantastic against McClosky. If that same fighter steps to Bradley…he is going to lose (probably by UD).
