You're too late, Mustard. I already supplied him with a link.
I hope Helenius knocks Chisora into the 9th row. He is an accurate puncher and he hits hard. Chisora is a tub of shit. This could be good.
You're on the ball Lance, I'll give you that. Who have you got winning Cotto-Margarito?
I hope Cotto. I fear a similar result to the first. Margs suits the weight better, and he has already proven that he can take Cotto's best. I just hope the Shane and Pac beatings will make the difference.
Cotto by decision.
I hope Cotto knocks sevens shades out of him, the fact the guy is even allowed to continue to box is baffling.
Good round. One for Chisora.
Great performance from Chisora so far. The ref is being an asshole.
Far and away the best I've seen him box. Still hope he gets knocked out but its looking unlikely.
It's a great fight.
He'd beat Fury in this humour
I swear Duke is drunk. He thought we were 4 rounds in rather than 5. Now he can't even get his cliches right.
Bullshit decision, IMO.
Thats this shite im watching? interview with Cotto and Margarito and some other twat around a table
It's very tense, isn't it. 
The actual fight won't be on until 4am or so.

anyone know what time we should be expecting cotto vs margarito to kick off? I'm not sure cause its in new york
No idea.
I heard 330am
I haven't stayed up for a fight in a long time, whats the stream availability/quality usually like these days?
Generally very good imo. Far more reliable and smoother than football streams for me for some reason. Haye-Klitschko is the last time I can recall streaming failing me for a big fight, and I stay up for most of them, both MMA and boxing.
I've got to admit, I love all this faux-psychological shite. I really need to get a hobby or something.
Is that trash-talk to the rest of us?
Ahh I love how I don't have to stay in on Saturday nights when I wanna watch fights. They're on during Sunday afternoon here.
Missed Chisora-Helenius, though. Hometown decision?

Not like that at all, the background to the fight means everything you saw was very very real
Cotto tried to get Naazim Richardson to watch Margarito have his hands wrapped looked like it would go ahead but at the last minute the NYSAC blocked the move. Brilliant attempt at mind games
They would have to be incredibly stupid to try it again though, theres going to be massive coverage of him getting his hands wrapped.
Now Naazim is being allowed to watch the hands being wrapped.
He won't try it again but psychologically it must be huge to have Richardson hovering over you again

Could someone please give me a cotto fight stream?
Only tuned in to this fight (Rios-Murray) before the 6th. Apparently Murray has been doing good, but Rios destroyed him in the 6th and is landing some powerful shots. I nearly feel ill watching it, hope Murray is OK. Could be a stoppage here.
Murray is one tough bastard and can be very proud of his performance, but I really hope he's OK after that. His face is disgusting, certainly the kind of loss that can affect his career (as the commentator said). Hopefully no long term damage there.
Rios really packs a sickening thud. Very exciting young fighter.

I thought Rios was disappointing compared to his last few fights. I don't think the weight cut did him any favours.
Murray can be proud of himself though, he put in a spirited performance, just never really had the power to trouble Rios.

Agreed. Murray put up a very creditable fight.
Rios comes across as a cackling turd of an individual, but he's such a tough, exciting fighter. I didn't think he'd be able to maintain that sort of brutal pressure into the later rounds after a failed weight cut and generally looking like death warmed up prior to the fight.
Round 1 to Cotto. Has his range sorted already. Hopefully he can keep this up and batter Margarito.
Beautiful boxing from Cotto in round 2.
Marg successful in making the 3rd round a brawl, but Cotto still landing better shots. Marg has a chance if he keeps this pace up but so far Cotto has done very well. Cut above Marg's right eye already.
Great fight. Cotto with a sizable lead after 7. Margarito's eye not looking good at all. Lets hope Cotto doesn't get overwhelmed again.
Cotto's fight to lose now. I can see the fight being stopped soon too.
Stopped.
Cotto boxed his head off, correct stoppage his eye is fecked.
Wow. Cotto just staring Marg down after the fight. Feel so happy for him, he gave Margarito a boxing lesson and bullied him physically. Fantastic performance and fight, wouldn't be surprised if there's serious damage to Marg's eye.
Fighters yet to even touch gloves.

That was feckin wonderful, until that pig bob arum showed his grotesque fecking mug.
