If Cotto had tried to clinch more he would've got hit with more uppercuts. Margarito was beastly that night, nothing would've stopped him. Only thing Cotto could've done was to not have traded at all on the ropes and to run the entire fight. If he did that though, he would not have won many rounds
If this...if that! Bottom line Marg fuked up Cotto, humiliated him and made him QUIT!
I know its hard to accept it but what can you do.
This second fight might go the distance with Marg winning by UD, Cotto taking another beating.
yea i thought that 24/7 would be very good to run! If the fight happens I'm sure it'll get done. Who knows if it'll be on HBO or Showtime. Showtime is starting to grow on me :)
as much as i love Cotto he aint 24/7 material... He wont discuss the wraps or trash talk. I dont think Manny Stewart would want the 24/7 either. I think if Cotto can clinch he will win but more importantly go to the body. I think in the first fight all he was told is Margarito can be hit up top all day and too concentrate on that. Margs i think is done. Too many wars i think has taken their toll. He has never been the same since the Cotto fight. Well thats my opinion. WAR COTTO
With Steward in his corner and a good gameplan Cotto has a chance to win a close decision. If Cotto gasses again than Margarito by TKO. I forsee a trilogy.
Thanks man, so am I. I hope they do a 24/7 on it...that would be awesome with the controversial backround these 2 have! Whatever happens, i see another long, tough fight.

Looking forward to the rematch.

This says more about the state of mexican boxing, than it does about Cotto. All they have is this "victory" by plaster. If Chavez JR. was a real fighter, they would have already admitted the obvious, thrown Margarito under the fackin bus already and gone on with being Mexicans. But when you have nothing, but a hyped up redhead, an old JMM who got abused by Floyd, and 1 Capetillo fighter (suspect) named Segura, you lose sight of reality.
Sadness. :nonono:

Yeah, it was those vicious uppercuts that did the most damage...they happened early in the fight and between the broken nose, swallowing blood most of the fight, his endurance was fuked. His endurance was fine in the Mosely and Clottey fights, his 2 other most difficult ones he won.
Cotto's defence against uppercts suck. Work on that and he's a got a good chance on avenging that loss. His confidence seems to be ok, espeacially after the Mayo fight, regardless of what anybody says about mayo performance, Cotto needed that win and got it.
if he lost to Mayo i doubt he would have the confidence he needs to beat marg.
Nice to see a true cotto fan with knowledge and logic. You seem to have some education as opposed to other guys in this thread. Cotto hasn't been impressive vs clottey(although he showed true warrior guts by fighting with cut), foreman, and mayorga. Margarito hasn't looked good in his fights vs mosley and paquiao, but then again those styles will always beat margarito. Boxing/Speed is his worst enemy. That's why cotto, needs to focus on that if he wants to have any chance against margo. If he does what he did in the first fight: head hunt, run....Then it's going to be another nasty loss for him. Cotto's instinct is to fight and when you stop and trade with Margarito you'll likely get the worst of it. Looking forward to the rematch.
I doubt it would have made that big a difference. Margarito would have just pushed him off and stuffed uppercuts into his head, he was the bigger man.
the only way it would have saved him was if it was a ****ty ref who automatically paused the action every time the fight got to close range.
clinching is illegal. refs need to realize this more often.

the sad thing is that if marg destroys cotto again, what excuse will ricans come up with next?
If Margo destroys Cotto legally without a cast than i will bow down to you lol Margo is gonna loose this fight and im gonna enjoy it more than mosley vs margo hahaha

Sry but the Tornado is gonna get hit wit a Tsunami primo!! And after Cottos done wit him!! Go find yourself another wet bag to cheer for lol

Lmao ok bro whatever you say.. He was using plaster with Cotto.
no proof
And yea theres proof. like i told you before, Margo admited his trainer had been putting plaster on him and that he didnt know what it was and never bother to ask cuz he trusted him and never thought he would have done something like that BS!!!
that was for the mosley fight, not the cotto fight.
Good way to try and cover his A## but we all kno his a cheater..
he cheated in the mosley fight. we don't know about the cotto fight though.
He knew he couldnt beat Cotto so went ahead and wore plaster! Is not that hard to believe after getting caught and admiting to it..
prove that marg cheated against cotto
In what world are you living???
the real word, as opposed to you living in a make believe world
Cotto just got robbed and played by Margo.
nope, cotto got beat, forced on his knees, and forced to quit
Theres ppl like that in this world, why are u so surprised!!
I'm surprised that ricans still won't give this up
by chance, did you ingest an entire bottle of pills on the evening of july 26, 2008?
Lol you must have just ate a f####n burrito that night huh!!?. You dont know what your talking bout so save your words.
c'mon son... marg got caught with plaster against mosley, not against cotto.
prove it.
there's no proof that marg used plaster against cotto.

There is no proof God exists either but Most of the WORLD know he does!
