Margarito did not seem vintage margarito in the fight. He did not have that passion he did when he went against cotto.
could he have used illegal wraps against cotto? possibly
However, one area that Marg won decisively over cotto was heart. it was clear that he wanted it more.
where was that in the margarito fight.
Was he distracted with the pre-fight situation?

its possible that margo wasnt focused, but its more probable that you are making excuses
If were going to discuss distractions then nothing tops a divorce!
Mosley showed no fear of Tony, went right after him, landed the faster, more powerful cleaner punches and dominated Margarito in every aspect of the game.

He couldn't focus cuz he kept getting hammered wit right hands. **** the excuses.
Yeagh He was distracted but only when Margarito saw Chuck Norris pointing at him during the 9th round right about the same time Mosley punched him in the face lol,so it wasnt a KO for Mosley but For Chuck Norris,thats why he lost Jk.Seriously though Him being Caught effected him tremendously,It was a good thing he was caught though their could have been lingering effects on mosley ect and other fighters if he wasnt.
what was he caught doing?
There are a number of things. 1st off if he really was "distracted" then it can only be because he was caught cheating. I dont think it would bother you if you were innoncent.
As for the fight, Mosley is just a different fihgter. Mosley has one of the best "wills" in the business and its not easy to break it. All of Margarito's opponents run from him but Mosley never did and he was actually pushing Margarito around in the clinch. That means I think he took Margarito's will some. The biggest thing that people have to realize is that no matter how much heart you have, if your not a better fighter then your just not better. There are a ton of fighters who are straight monsters, have a awesome will, and have big time heart but there talent is at a D level so they have a record of 10-7. Margarito obviously is better then that but his talent is so far below Mosley's in nearly every catagory and heart wont overcome that.
PS- Something that no one is talking about is that Margarito did have eye surgery a week before the fight though
Another thing is that Margarito sparred a very low amount of rounds for this fight, if that was a factor, I don't really know but Margarito did not not look composed and sharp at all.

I found that both fighters showed negative body language before the fight..
This is gunna sound wierd but, Tony didnt even get a haircut..
Hes usually clean cut..
Shane also wasnt as giddy as his usual self.. he looked down..
---
It really didnt matter because this was a great fight!
Shane:
effective counter punching
control of distance
effective holding
great use of the jab
stayed off the ropes
used marg's aggressive against him
shane said it best himself
"margarito fights hard, but he only fights one way."
margarito had the same determination for this fight as all the others. he was in it until the end, always coming forward until he was knocked out. cotto didnt hold effectively, stayed on the ropes, didnt go to the body, and ate left uppercuts all night. shane knew better.
Mosley showed no fear of Tony, went right after him, landed the faster, more powerful cleaner punches and dominated Margarito in every aspect of the game.
he was taken off his gameplan.
Mosley cirled every time he tried a jab, he never let him get off from distance, he was always attacking before he could ever try one of his lounging punches. And most of all, he took away his inside game, by staying too close to him, or too far to him. And he whooped his ass with lots of power punches, making him think before attacking. Basically, the same thing that happened in the Pav-BHop fight, but more intense because Mosley is a fighter that when he smells blood, he goes for the KO with passion.
He also tied up when necessary and stayed off the ropes. He showed no fear, and made Margarito understand he couldn't be intimidated.
Cotto took an 11 round beating against an opponent with possible brick hard plaster in his gloves, Margarito fell apart within 9 against a man Cotto handled up on. How does that justify more heart for Margarito?
this is under the pretenses that Margarito did NOT cheat in the Cotto fight.
indeed if he did cheat, he doesn't have the heart of a man who deserves to be in boxing.
no way to prove that he cheated, no way to prove that he didnt. although there is motive.
It was over the minute he came into the centre with a Mullet
right there that was his downfall..
He had the same passion for this has he did for the Cotto fight
its just Mosley beat that passion out of him
