    Is Cotto subsceptible to body shots?

    Rewatching the Gomez fight, I've noticed Cotto take some clean body shots by Gomez but wasn't effected by them due to Gomez's lack of power. Now imagine those same body shots being landed by Margarito? I think if Cotto is going to have trouble taking a punch with Margarito, it'll be body shots. I'm actually shocked to see how defenseless Cotto can be at body shots when they are targetted at him. Against Gomez, he didn't have to worry, but someone that'll constantly be ****ing at his body with power, I think it might be trouble.

      Absolutely he is, he keeps a high guard for the most part picking off shots

        He can get hit to the body, Mosley managed to get to him there a few times and Cotto didn't like those shots.

            Uppercuts and body shots are Cotto's Kryptonite.

            Both are Margarito's favorite punches.

              Tony's a fierce body puncher, and I've always wondered whta Cotto would do wit a guy who could match his body attack. He could be hurt down there 4 sho. And if he hurts Tony at all, it'll be more to the body than the chin. Who's most effective downstairs could actually determine the fight.

                Mosley landed some stiff body shots. Cotto is a short target though, and he crouches inside too. Margarito is going to leave himself exposed trading body punches because hes so much taller.
