Readers Rule Prediction Page: Cotto/Margarito
Here we are, counting down in anticipation of the 2008 Fight of the Year. Cotto/Margarito. Two consummate warriors, both possessors of A level willpower.
Cotto could snag the top spot on the fantasy Pound for Pound best list with a great showing. The pundits are feeling like his superior ring generalship will prove to be the difference in Las Vegas on Saturday evening, but won’t Margarito be amped up beyond belief? Won’t his motivation level be through the roof? Won’t he fight the fight of his life, after toiling for so many years on the fringes of the biggest, most lucrative bouts?
Have at it, TSS Universe.
Send in your pred, and give a couple of reasons why you think your man will carry the night.
