Zab had a plan from the beggining of making a show when a punch went low. He wanted to eliminate bodyshots from Cotto's arsenal and maybe get him discualified.

he used low blows against Ricardo torres, the only fighter that knocked him down
i think chop chop corley received one low or two low blows, but it wasnt called.
not sure though.Comment

That's bull****. Vargas had Tito hurt and where it not for th low blows he could have possibly scored a KO.That's bull****. TiTo beated up Vargas badly, no excuses. About Cotto and Judah, Zab did have TIME TO RECOVER and did not show signs of been affected by the lowblows. he did showed signs of been rusty and surprised by the beating he took and did not expect to get. Dou you remeber all the **** Zab said on HBO during the pre-fight documentary??? He took his own words and shoved down his throat, ****ted them and then shoved them back on his ass.Comment

Looking back at the fight it does look like they may have been intentional.. I don't know though. Against Chop Chop Corley he hit him straight on the belt line and Corley's trunks were high so that wasn't a low blow.
When you go to the body so often you gotta understand though that this is bound to happen.. One or two punches are bound to stray.. Just like you are not gonna hit your target everytime when you aim for someone's head, your not gonna hit your target everytime when you **** someone's body.Comment

this is correct. if you are a fighter you would know this.Looking back at the fight it does look like they may have been intentional.. I don't know though. Against Chop Chop Corley he hit him straight on the belt line and Corley's trunks were high so that wasn't a low blow.

miguel cotto is undefeated so torres could not have knocked him out. maybe you meant knocked him down?i cant wait till miguel cotto fights antonio margarito!
both guys are great, and miguel has gotten better every single fight, no one can stop him.
antonio margarito a non-stop punching mchine, probably his toughest opponent yet.
what i realised about miguel cotto, is against ricardo torres (the only guy that knocked out miguel cotto....i think) is that he gave him two low blows, because he was beign connected with so many right hands, it troubled him from the 1st to 3rd round. I doubt torres would've survived up to the 10th round, regardless of the low blows.
Again against Judah, he low blowed him twice, maybe even three times, why? intentional or not, he was being rocked by judah, in the first 4 rounds, yet again, miguel cotto won the fight, but did it slow down judah, or maybe even margarito?
He's gona fight margarito in about 2 weeks, and margarito likes to fight toe-to-toe, non-stop brawling. Not to mention TORRES AND JUDAH both
fought TOE-TO-TOE against Cotto. BOTH were SIMILAR STYLES, and Margaritos will probably be more punishing, not to mention he has power in both his hands.
Will Cotto use his low blows against margarito, if he's ever going to be rocked by Antonio's left hooks or right leads?Comment
