Cotto vs Margarito 2: Live Streaming Weigh-In Video from Madison Square Garden

by Scott Christ on Dec 2, 2011 4:07 PM EST in Boxing News Analysis

Today at 5 p.m. EST, the weigh-ins for tomorrow night's event featuring Miguel Cotto vs Antonio Margarito in the main event at Madison Square Garden will be held, and you can watch the live streaming video here at Bad Left Hook, courtesy Yahoo! Sports.

The video will go live when the time comes, and we'll be here with live updates in the comments of this post, and on Twitter during the event. Don't forget that Cotto vs Margarito is a catchweight fight, as Cotto enforced a weight limit of 153 pounds, one pound less than the normal junior middleweight limit of 154, simply to put the screws to Margarito during negotiations for the fight.

Don't forget we're also going to have live coverage at 4:45 of the Felix Sturm vs Martin Murray WBA middleweight title fight from Germany. If you missed it, there's still time to read the full preview for Sturm vs Murray.

Spencer Fearon just tweeted to say Rios-Murray could be off...

"Occasionally, there is a boxing match that, in its demonstration of skill, courage, intelligence, hope, seems to redeem the sport - almost. Perhaps boxing has always been a sport in crisis, a sport of crisis."

No rumors all week at all. Nobody else saying anything yet. Only thing I could think possible is one of them is way, way overweight.

on Rios rumor

He’s apparently stuck in traffic with Margarito and LA Times reporter Lance Pugmire. Doesn’t sound like he’s pulling out of fight.

I thought 147 is the highest he should go but he left it after he lost to Pacquiao.

He has to shed the weight. Since it’s a title fight, NYSAC is gonna hold firm on the weight. And if he doesn’t make weight, he loses his title, period.
