So is Cotto's chin still questionable?

Nah man. Margo hurt him no doubt a few times, but i mean you can't say his chin is bad. The KDs came from him being exausted and body shots wore him down IMO.

I think Cotto should test it again against Andre Berto. Then we would know. Of course Cotto's chin is good, no denying that. That would be a good come back fight. Would get him a belt too. I still stand by the fact that Cotto can beat any other WW. Would have beat Margarito if he didnt have a titanium chin. I mainly made this thread because I got tired of seeing people post about how Cotto has a glass chin, and anytime he was fighting someone with a little bit of power people said it would come down to his chin. Even against Margarito it came down to his stamina more than anything. He got tired, couldnt throw quick punches to keep margarito at bay, so it was eventually just target practice in the end. The pressure of Margarito finally got Cotto exhausted.

Are you kidding me! Taking knees is quitting, hence every part of you quits. See, this is the kind of thinking that negatively affects the sport. A guy like Oscar Diaz goes out there and gives it everything and he gets hurt bad. Cotto was behaving very professionally because he knew he was in trouble and had no other recourse but to take a knee and try to regain himself. It was clear that there was no way Cotto was going to survive the rest of the fight so his corner threw in the towel. Don't discredit fighters when you know you'd have quit much, much sooner than that. Like in the dressing room.

Good chin definitely, it was his heart that gave out after giving everything he had and Margarito was just walking through his punches.

He was only stunned a couple of times during the fight against someone people said was the hardest punching WW. I know he took a knee twice in the 11th but his knee's never gave up, he just had nothing left. I think we can put this matter to rest and say that Cotto has a good chin at 147. it's not cotto's chin that betrayed him it was his stamina and conditioning. i told u mofos that cotto gased against mosley that's why he got on his bike for rounds 9-12.

Are you kidding me! Taking knees is quitting, hence every part of you quits. Taking a knee is not quitting.

He's got a damn good chin, just not as good as Tony. It took a lotta punishment for Cotto to give in.

Yeah, I just hope it puts that argument to rest. Cotto took some good shots, even that uppercut that made him take a knee didnt make him wabble or buckle, he just said "fuck this, I gave it all I had and have nothing left".

I think Cotto showed he has a very good chin. He took some powerful uppercuts in this fight. It really came down to the fact that Margo is a HUGE welterweight and Cotto is a small one. And Cotto isn't exactly known for his stamina and it doesnt help when you have this big powerful man punching you for 11 rounds.

The guy took 200+ power punches from one of the hardest punching Welterweights out there. I think it is safe to say he has a good chin on him. Just not epic like Margarito's.

Are you kidding me! Taking knees is quitting, hence every part of you quits.

They were "voluntary" knock downs. He was in great pain and fatigue. He chose to go on his knee to take a break.

No, Margarito broke him down and he was just exhausted at the end
