4 The Last Time Cotto Didn't Quit!

I agree, he didn't quit. If he had quit he would have just told the ref he didn't want to continue and that did not happen. Walking away from a fighter, and then taking a knee when that fighter approaches is a non verbal way of quitting. "it is better to die on your feet, than to live on your knees”. Emiliano Zapata, as you can see not a Puerto Rican who originated that quote haha.

to quote teddy atlas from 7/30 weds nite fites...."the way he broke him the way he made him give in (a nice way to say QUIT!) will stay w/both cotto and margarito and therefore i don't think there will ever be another fite and if there was it would be easier for margarito".... Teddy Atlas is a idiot. He was in love with Cotto and that is why Cotto lost because Teddy picked him to win. Teddy is a FN JYNX

This shit is gettin old already. No he didn't quit, he got KTFO. I will take the KTFO and accept it. Quit it just didn't happen.

Yeah he didn't quit he simply gave in by taking a second knee without getting hit thats giving in (QUITTING!!!!)

miguel quitto did quit

The guy took punishment from at least the 7th round untill the 11th. He got up twice. Had his face broken in many places. Israel Vazquez, Frietas, Duran all had the physical ability not the mental ability. Cotto didn't have the physical ability that is why his corner stopped it. Cotto's uncle stopped it because his nephew was getting beaten and worn out. He took that knee out of being tired not quitting. Cotto lost. But Margarito WON the fight more than Cotto lost it. If he had a different cornerman that wasn't related god knows it wouldn't be pretty. Stop this quitting Bullshit because if it weren't for his family Cotto might have been really hurt. Good stoppage by his corner, Great Will to win by Margarito, and bad gameplanning by the Cotto crew. Not to put Cotto as a bitch cause to be able to take all the punishment that Tony dish out he lasted 11 rounds which I think he has more balls than most fighters (yeah am talking bout gayweather, mosley, de la hoya). But at the end he quitted. Cotto is a great fighter and will continued to be. How can you tell Cotto quit? Second knockdown: After referee separate them (cause Cotto clinch) he back away with guard down (signs of fatigue). Tony didn't land any shot and Cotto still took a knee. After he got up u could tell, when cotto's corner got onto the ring, Cotto closes his eyes and nobs as if giving a sign of approval for them to throw in the towel.

cotto quit!!!!! get over it!!!

Intention again my man. Cotto was getting pummeled the first knockdown and went down and got hit while he was down. Got up no legs and tired took a voluntary knee. But Got Up. He Didn't QUit. He quit. Get over it. Tony broke his will. Its ok , it was the best thing for him to do and I can't fault him for it. I'm still a fan of his.

He said "NO MAS 'pai" winked at his uncle and said "thanx" Where is this at?

If I walk away from my job without telling my boss, he'd take it that I quit. Cotto took two voluntary knees in the same manner that Judah, without taking a punch. Zab got up again and tried to fight. Miguel got up and backpedaled all the way to the other side of the ring and took another knee. It was a smart choice for him to quit. Intention again my man.

Vazquez couldnt breathe... Cotto's will was just taken away from him, and if u look at the fight again, u can see Cotto wink at his corner saying yes to stop the fight.. he was up for it.. Wink to his Corner? Thats Questionable with blood streaming in to my eyes I would do alot more than Wink. DIdn't A preovios person prove this theory wrong.

he backed away and took a knee to avoid margarito to continue punishing him, thats quitting, what was he trying to do then if he didnt quit? stay alive for the rest of the round? he would've gotten permanent brain damage in the last round. he did the smart thing in quitting. Cotto's Intention is something that only he would know. The guy was tired and physically drained. Yet he kept taking punishment. If he wanted to Quit he could have done it when Marg cheap shotted him on the floor but he didn't. Kenny Bayless did a great job reffing that fight, If he would have gave Cotto more time to recover we might be arguing about something else now. Vazquez said I can't go on, Duran and Frietas said No Mas so what did Cotto say that makes him quit. Margarito won the fight with a 11rd KO. ENOUGH SAID

He might as well had, Tony was going to keep on punishing that ass for 1 more round and cause permanent damage to that boy. Agreed. But he didn't Quit. Props for you VIVA and the rest of your clan for putting your necks on the line for Margarito. I was waiting to tell you guys told you so but I was wrong about Margarito.

He took 2 knees and said NO MAS i call that quitting.
