Miguel Cotto/Antonio Margarito; or, why Mayweather Retired

Big fight tonight, i encourage you all to find it online at channelsurfing dot net, as i can't expect any non boxing fans to pay for it.

Should be a great fight, the anger between Mexicans and Puerto Ricans, 2 of the hardest fists and strongest chins in the welterweight division.

Floyd Mayweather Jr has been accused of ducking both of these guys in the past, so he retired because he'd have no excuse but to fight the winner of this one, and put his undefeated record on the line.

I'm going with Margarito, by TKO in the 10th

I think that's a good call. Margarito wins, but it should be a good fight.

Channelsurfing dot net, you say?

ever tried justin dot tv?

that's what I usually use when I don't want to pay for an MMA PPV.

out of pure ignorance, what weight are these guys? and what belt is this for?

it's looking like the only free streams are in Spanish, but i think the fights called by the HBO team will be in English, with Spanish Subtitles. Just go to the one on channelsurfing with the HBO logo.

its a relink to justin dot tv.

it's for The Ring Magazine 147lb title, as well as whatever garbage belts come along with it.

The Alphabet Belts are garbage, this is the real deal, for 'The Ring' belt, since Floyd retired rather than fight someone his own age or size

entertaining undercard, to this point. I imagine the main event is next.

I can't stand either of them but it should be a great fight, Margarito is the better boxer but Cotto is the better fighter, should be a helluva show.

So Ring Magazine is running its own titles?

that's actually a good idea, if they can somehow pull a full unification off at the major weights.

The Ring has had their own titles for years, it's the true championship, no finanicial stake or anything involved, and it can only be won and lost in the ring.

btw, Margarito won by TKo in 11, one heck of a fight.

free replay on HBO now, if anyones interested. Heck of a fight to watch. Pretty big card following, again, if anyone is interested.

Hopefully we get a sequel and if needed, a rubber match. Could be bigger than Gatti-Ward.
