This is a really silly thread. Margarito won a lopsided desicion and suffered a bigger injury than Clottey did. Whether or not Clottey was winning early is irrellevant. He lost the 7-9 rounds.
Cotto got hit with a big shot right on the temple, Cotto may not have an iron chin but that shot would have rocked anyone. Corley is an underrated puncher. He rocked Cotto, rocked Mayweather, stunned Judah, stunned Alexander and stunned Witter. Cotto became the first (and aside from Jose Alfaro recently) the only man to stop Corley, who is a tough, crafty ass, very skilled fighter.
Both guys met adversity early on. Both guys overcame it. Anyone can be hurt. Carlos Baldomir has been knocked out. Librado Andrade has been knocked down. James Toney has been knocked down, Marvin Hagler has been rocked and knocked down. The most iron of fighters have been stunned. Cotto overcame a tough spot to mostly dominate the fight (aside from another round or so) and knock Corley out. Even if it was a bad stoppage, Cotto was well on his way (even from the first round) to a knockout.
Margarito had a bad ankle injury, but ****** it up and clearly outpointed Clottey.
Clottey himself said it was just a bruised knuckle. Margarito had a dislocated ankle! I have suffered both injuries while sparring/fighting. The bruised knuckle didn't do me too bad, and I just kept with it, but it was annoying. I injured my ankle big time in my second amateur fight and lost the fight on points.
Both guys are good fighters. Stop all these ****** threads.
Great Post. To call either a bum will let people sound ******.
Coming from you this is probably bull****, you have a link to this.
Clottey does come into the ring as a light heavyweight, its true. After the Corrales fight, the showtime interviewer was asking him as to why he weighed so much on the unofficial scale. He blamed it on his jeans (denim not genetic) lol

okay I said it. Burner said he heard on HBO and now I posted an article. sorry pal.. if you just dont follow boxing and know these things like the rest of us.
educate yourself homay
I remember hearing it on HBO too. Once I heard that, I knew it was over for Diego. I felt bad for him that night and wished he wouldn't have done it. But hey, its Diego Corrales, it was what he did.

I wasnt aware he was that heavy in the Corrales fight, but i knew he was in others. I guess BMW thinks we are ALL just lying....
