          Yeah I thought Cotto was a couple of rounds up early. Margarito winning round 2 of course. But by the time we got to round 10 I thought Tony had probably nudged ahead. I thought round 2 was the defining round of the fight for me. Margarito landed a brutal body shot that took the wind out of Cotto's sails for a while.

          Cotto then had to protect the body more and Tony knew right then and there that he hurt Cotto. His smile at the end of the round said it all. The round 2 body punch threw doubt in Miguel's mind and built confidence in Tony.

            You mean the rounds or the prediction of the fight? If its the rounds i had it a draw going into the 11th round....And i had margarito a slight favourite going into the fight.

                  yeah, I admit he was tired because he was hurt in the 6th. He made the mistake of standing there.

                    I thought Cotto would win, but I was rooting for Margarito. And, honestly, though I saw Cotto slowing down, I didn't know who was going to win until a little while before it happened.

                    Uber-competitive, uber-exciting.
