    HBO's video montage was Tasteless

    WTF was that video all about after the fight? They even got a nice slow-mo zoom in of his wife and kid crying. I'm a Margarito fan and I'm glad he won but I think they should've shown Cotto the proper respect. I didn't hear anything like the usual "2 great warriors put on a classic." All I heard was how Cotto's career is through and plenty of shots of him leaving to the locker room.

    I'm really happy with the outcome but Cotto was disrespected IMO.

      Perhaps it had to do with him not giving an interview afterwards.

            I guess they showed that for shock value, I thought the slow mo punches were nice but the family crying unnecessary. I guess thats what goes with being the wife and child of a boxer, especially if your going to seat your family ringside.

              It was certainly awkward.

                The crying part was too much 100% agreement but I mean yeah they can show the knockout in its bloody entirety if they wanted to.

                  I'm not sure it was tasteless as just plain odd.

                  Lampley gave it a buildup, only for it to be about 30 seconds of slow-mo action.

                    How the hell do they allow kids inside the casino and inside the arena?
