It's simple: Cotto ruined Margarito

Shane deserves all of the credit in the world. This had nothing to do with Cotto. As stated before others have been able to hit Margarito. Shane just has more power than Cotto and is stronger.

I picked mosley to win by tough UD, but I guess I was wrong. I knew he would trade some bombs with Marg and he showed he was the stronger man. Marg is too slow for Shane to try and trade with Shane's fast Power punching. He brought back some of that speedy combination punching that he hasn't used in quit sometime now. Shane knocked Marg out because Marg couldn't take too many of those Speedy punches he couldn't see coming. Also Cotto's punches although powerful, they are more a thumping shot. Mosley's power punches have much more Pop and speed and it don't matter who you are, if you get hit enough you will go down. Shane even at 37 is still the man.:boxing:

Cotto has always had a questionable chin unlike Mosley.... Cotto just doesn't react well to getting hit compared to other elite fighters with granite chins. Yeah it really is a hell of a coincidence that while everyone was saying his chin would get better when he moved up, he was implementing more and more boxing into his style lol He took a pretty bad beating though and didn't get KO'd clean against Marg, showed alot of heart.

If you are getting hit with a cast of course you wont react well!!!!!!!!!!!f Yes... that is why he has been wobbled and down various times in his career. I hate circle jerk fans who can't even acknowledge a proven fact.

boy am i getting bashed lol im not taking away anything from shane. he completely dominated . reason i said this was cause weve seen marg gets tagged so much and next fight he was the same. ex. santos, cintron, etc. but shane owned him so easily.

It wouldn't have mattered if Tony came into the ring without gloves, he couldn't even hit Shane. It's obvious that Shane is simply stronger than Cotto (juice lol) that's why Shane was able to stand in front of Tony for much of the fight, force Tony back, land those big shots etc where Cotto was forced to run for as long as he could. I wouldn't give Cotto any credit for what happened tonight, and I think that Tony will beat Cotto again if they rematch. EDIT: I'm not sayin that juice helped Shane win the fight, just that Shane is stronger than Cotto lol before anyone gets offended. Cotto has always had a questionable chin unlike Mosley.... Cotto just doesn't react well to getting hit compared to other elite fighters with granite chins.

Cotto just fought the wrong fight. If he wasn't so macho & didn't let his pride get in the way and would've clinched Margarito after every exchange the same way Mosely did he would've won the fight. Cotto burned too much energy dodging and weaving and pulling away after every exchange. He fought the wrong fight, got tired & paid the price. I will admit that margarito's face wass more swollen after the cotto fight. Great fight Mosely...Much Props!!!

Weird the difference between a 2 handed fighter and a 1 handed fighter is a win by KO or a loss by KO. Mosley has 2 hands, Cotto uses 1. Mosley also has more power. I think people don't realize how hard Mosley "can" hit. Mosley hadn't sat on his punches correctly for a while. He bounces in and out and pitter-patters a lot, but the dude still has a great KO record. He may have also found a trainer that can do him well and help him use his natural athletic tools. Mosley has pretty much always passed more on talent then anything. Should Mosley continue to fight it should be interesting to see how he will perform in the future against other fighters. I'd personally like to see a Cotto rematch as I had that one very close with Mosley having a slight edge.

Exactly what I thought. It was kinda soon but it came. Cotto CRACKED Margarito's chin. Look at it, Mosley knocked Margarito out in a fashion NOBODY thought was possible. Did you think it was? Nope, I didn't. I felt fight by fight Margarito's chin would decline and it has. Cotto threw hell of power shots that Margarito now regrets he took. But credit to Mosley he did his gameplan, and was MACHO about it. Sign here if you went for Mosley. - ME. Some people are gullible.

Plastered hand wraps doesnt help your chin. I never said it did

This was about a guy who knows how to box completely humiliating a guy who doesn't know how to box. The guy who doesn't know shit didn't get his handwraps so he got his ass whooped.

cotto didn't do anything that was all shane don't take away credit when credit is due

If Cotto DID do this to Margarito, then I can't wait to see what Margarito did to Cotto. I bet if Cotto's "ruining" of Margarito made him lose to Mosley, then Margarito's annihilation of Cotto will make him lose to Michael Jennings. Before any IDIOT interprets this as me saying Cotto will lose to Jennings, let me just clarify my point. I don't believe Cotto did anything to Margarito that hurt his career in the long run. He lost because Shane was just better. The point I'm making is that if you believe Cotto caused harm to Marg's career with his punishment, then you have to also acknowledge that this same this is gonna happen to Cotto, because Tony gave him a much worse beating than what he received either from him or from Shane tonight.

Not taking anything away from Shane. HELL NO I'M NOT. I was rooting for him and told everybody he'd win BEFORE the fight even got signed. Hell of performance and he DOMINATED Margarito. I'm just saying - I'd thought Marg would take his shots and just be outboxed, Cotto's punishment finally cracked that chin and Mosley basically KOed his ass. And his plaster makes me wonder about the Cotto fight as well. If that's the case Cotto lasted 11 rounds - not bad. question? did Margarito use plaster in his chin too?

LOL I knew this thread would pop up. Why don't you just take all the credit away from Shane? Shane fought a GREAT game plan and never let Margarito BACK HIM UP. He was pushing Margarito forward and didnt let him get any momentum. I don't even think that Cotto can even utilize that game plan because Mosley is physically stronger and much faster with his hands.

The cotto fight did damage to him no doubt i dont know if he ruined him but he layed some ground work i agree.margarito's face was pretty swelling.i do think cotto soften him up but didn't finish the job.mosley did. the the plastic hands shit has me thinking about the cotto fight.
