Miguel Cotto and Antonio Margarito are set to square off for a second time this Saturday night on HBO pay-per-view. The bout takes place live from Madison Square Garden in New York City, one of the most famous arenas in the world. Given the large Puerto Rican fanbase in the area, it seemed a natural to give those fans a chance to see Cotto's quest for revenge against Margarito.
While there was already a good buzz surrounding the fight, Top Rank got some very good news as today the fight officially became a sellout as Fred Sternburg tweeted:
The sold-out crowd will no doubt be ravenous as they hope to see their man get revenge against the fighter many feel used loaded hand wraps and put Cotto's life at risk the first time around.
