    Cotto-Margarito reminded me of Corrales-Freitas

    I say that because Corrales, like Margarito was the taller man in the fight and was more of a brawler than a boxer. Freitas, like Cotto was a better boxer and both were undefeated at the time. Both Cotto and Freitas got off to fast starts against there opponents before fading in the mid rounds and ultimately losing in the later rounds. Thoughts?

    Popo's submission was far more blatant than Cotto's.

      Yea, I know, but the rest of the fight seemed very similar to me. Not the ending.

        That's a pretty good comparison except Freitas actually quit in the fight.

          It was similar.

          Both were great great great fights. I think Cotto and even Margarito are a higher class of fighter then Corrales and Frietas were. Not by much at all though.
