Everything will be on the line for Antonio Margarito when he faces off with Miguel Cotto a second time this December 3rd at Madison Square in New York. Inactive since his horrendous November thrashing at the hands of Manny Pacquiao last year, this may be the last shot at a title for the 33-year old Margarito as he attempts to lift Cotto?s WBA junior middleweight crown in the air by night?s end.
It was a little over three years ago that Margarito produced his most stirring victory as a professional, stopping Cotto in eleven heats at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, and there have been several question marks floating around his career since that performance. One fight later Margarito was caught up in his infamous hand wrap controversy, an act that coincided with a 9th round TKO loss to Shane Mosley, and he has yet to capture a significant victory since then.
