I think he can come back and beat guys like Margarito, Judah, and Clottey but no one who is new and younger, he has to fight fighters who have taken either identical beatings or were never on his level to begin with...Once he fights a fighter like Paul Williams or Floyd Mayweather he will get crushed even worse then the Margarito fight....Same goes for Margarito because Cotto landed the better shots, Margo just had the better conditioning. Your body cant just get beat like that without it effecting you.

it not like he got knock the **** out.....he'll bounce back.
I think getting KO'd out cold would have been easier than the sustained beating he took.
I think he will bounce back as far as fight again but I do think that tougher roads are still ahead for him.
For instance, Clottey and Paul Williams are still out there and those aren't easy fights for Cotto. I think people are sleeping on Clottey and his style against Cotto's would be very interesting to see.
Cotto is a very good fighter but he did fight both Mosely and Judah who are well past thier primes. It will be interesting to see how he will come back against any of the two fighters I mentioned.
Cotto and his camp already said they'd be back in the ring before the year is out, then they would rematch Margarito next year. Cotto's fine, he'll be back better than ever and more determined to finish an opponent.
Next time he'll be off the bicycle and the body shots will be in play, I think we'll see a more forward boxing style with heavy emphasis on the body. Cotto will come back to heavily punish Magarito and it will be another brutal fight for both with Margo taking the worste of it this time around....Cotto by way of knock out in the 10th
