HBO Boxing: Countdown to Cotto-Margarito
Sports Crackle Pop —
Last year I attended the Zab Judah and Miguel Cotto fight with some friends. That same night, I became a Cotto fan. His powerful body blows left me mesmerized. Now it comes time for him to fight Antonio Margarito. Both boxers are insanely good and this should be a fight of the year contender. That is why I am glad HBO put up their “Countdown to Cotto-Margarito” on youtube. Watch it and you too will be pumped for the battle in Las Vegas tomorrow night.
