I know it's a US fight but seeing as there are posts about being disillusioned with boxing I think here's something that will reverse the hearse in your minds and get your blood flowing again.
THIS is what Boxing is al about.
Enjoy.

Margarito in another world would be a cold-blooded assassin.... but Cotto is not that warm either.
The thing that stands out for me is how much I dislike Kellerman.... He seems patronising to the fighters, and asks borderline disrespectful questions. Rather than Cotto-Margarito I woould like to see Kellerman-Margarito in a prison cell, after both had been sentenced to 25 years.
Now THAT would be a beating in the ring

I know Kellerman is annoying but I quite like him. I know he poses questions in an awkward manner & sometimes looks like he still can't quite believe he's on TV but he knows his shit.
Cotto speaks good English, though, doesn't he? & I preferred Margarito's hair when it was done in a mullet. It suited him more.

i think both fighters are damaged goods.kellerman talking about risking your life was O.T.T
cotto is very brave as past performances have shown. kellerman lacks class imo.

I've come to respect people like Max Kellerman and Jim Gray. They are not afraid to ask those awkward questions no matter how rude they come across. It's better than people like Mario Lopez interviewing their gym mates with nice soft questions which don't address the controversy of the fight beforehand.

Very good one that but I'm trying not to get into this fight too much because of the serious chance it may not happen. Have they had the hearing yet?

we should really appreciate the likes of kellerman. ed robinson would never ask the questions kellerman does
can you imagine ed asking margarito how he could have known there was plaster of paris in his wraps vs cotto when he said he felt no difference in the mosley incident?

Margarito was one of my favourite boxers, but now I just look at him as a cheat, and he shouldn't be allowed to box again.

It's hard not to want Cotto to win after seeing that.......

I don't know why people give Kellerman a hard time, i like him and think he does a good job. He sets the scene and isn't afraid to ask the sort of questions that we want answering. All his face off's are great in my opinion.

A redundant statement is redundant.
I don't have a problem with Kellerman. I was ignoring him and concentrating on what the boxers were doing and saying. Both are very confident, but I think Margarito has the edge mentally.

yep Margarito is 100% bandito...
at least this fight hasn't got a reason for Arum to twist the judging. No lose for him

I really want Cotto to do him, but I think the problem he will have, is that he doesn't hit hard enough to deter Margarito. Towards the end, Margarito will start closing him down, and his punches will take their toll, wraps or no wraps.
I hope that the broken nose cotto suffered (possibly as a result of the illegal wraps) may have contributed to him gassing, but Cotto always seems to fade down the stretch a little anyhow.

Why is Margarito allowed to fight on yet Luis Resto is still banned from even training fighters?. Who knows how many times Margarito had his hands loaded in previous fights. The only good thing about him being allowed to fight imo is that Cotto has a chance for revenge, which i think he will have unless the wars hes had have taken too much out of him...

Money and a general decline in moral decency. And I must be as guilty as the rest because I'm glad he's still allowed to fight.
Yeah, if Resto vs Collins took place now Resto would have a years ban and then get a title shot!... especially if Bob Arum was his promoter!. Happy days.

It's a bit of a mystery, because we can't be sure how many fights Margarito cheated in ( none possibly, and caught 1st time they tried it ) or even if he really knew......you can say well of course he did, but you can't be 100% sure.
Anyway, he's tainted as a result - but hand wraps or not, I think he's going to batter Cotto again.

Margarita is 100% puff IMO. How many fights has he won with loaded gloves before he got found out. He needs another pacman style beating. Shows you what type or promoters hang about in the business when they will work with that twat again. He aint a man, he’s a pussyhole. He also appeared in a vid with Brandon rios taking the p:ss out of Freddie roach’s illness…fag boy

Come on Cotto
Cotto boxed brilliantly for the first half of the last fight but it's almost certain that margarito's going to be putting it on him again in the second half, just hope cotto can hang on this time.

I just loved Max Kellerman's final line to the camera of "I am so glad I am calling this fight", and I like Kellerman as well he is knowledgable and passionate about the sport and what wants to see the best fighting the best like we all and he has got the stones to ask those awkward questions. As for this face off it has to be the best one I have seen so far and looking into Miguel Cotto's eyes he cannot wait for December 3rd to come around so he can get retribution for that first fight which I think he will get.
