When Antonio Margarito rocked Miguel Cotto

Seventeen years ago this weekend, on July 26, 2008, Antonio Margarito, of Tijuana, Mexico, and Miguel Cotto, from Caguas, Puerto Rico, met at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas to establish welterweight supremacy. Cotto, a former 140-pound titleholder, held the WBA strap. In order to face him, Margarito had been forced to abdicate his IBF throne, to which he had recently ascended courtesy of a stoppage of Kermit Cintron.
