        I'm happy he lost tonight because I didn't want to see Cotto fight him. It would be a waste of time, and a total mismatch, so now Cotto gets to fight Mosley in a bigger money fight, and a more competitive one. That's all.

        Marg can go on and keep fighting whoever and his fans can keep saying he's "the most feared fighter in boxing", and I don't care. I just didn't want Cotto to waste his time.

        i actually think tony/cotto is a 50/50 fight. if tony lands on cotto i dont think cotto can take those punches. same with tony. cotto punches too hard to take it for 12 rounds. u can argue that cotto's technique is superior but that doesnt guarantee a win.

          But, it was a smart move.

          Due to his alien bone structure, abnormal range, I'd like to see Williams in against Cotto or Mayweather.
          not to consider a southpaw.

          The size and style with his really hard to get in

            Take that as you will, but I never understood the fuss over this guy.
            I had the same thoughts.

            He's not the most feared fighter anymore.

              was Margarito really exposed? All i saw was a linky mother****er beating the crap out of someone who was not as long and lets not forget Margarito came on late and won most of the later rounds.. Wiith that being said Williams won in my opinion but i dont think he exposed margarito, cause santos already did that...this just confirms that all the floyd vs marg threads hold no relevance floyd would have torn this poor boy apart and yes floyd is 10x more accurate than williams could even imagine being

                Styles make fights. Just because Williams beat Margarito, doesn't mean fighter C beats Margarito. Margarito is still a threat at 147, just not so much for Paul Williams.

                  Margarito wasn't exposed.

                  He was outworked.

                  He's still a top WW.

                  But at least the **** about him being the most feared WW will stop.

                    you are right but every fighter change is style abit to adapt the other fighter.

                    It like a game of long term chess. by see you vid I predict how you are coming in the ring as well as with my style of fight how you will react and then concentrate my training on the things that could win you visa vers happens on the other side.

                    But the exictment comes after months of training
