    Throwing to the body would open up his weak chin, something you can't do against a guy that doesn't stop throwing at your face

      Yeah, being smothered (closely pressured) by a taller fighter made it difficult, but on paper it seemed easy.

        If he was a better boxer, it should have been easy. He's definitely not as good as his fans made him out to be, that's for sure.

          cotto did not fight his fight. he was not aiming for a ko. definately seemed like he underestimated margarito. margarito wanted it much more. hopefully a great lesson for miguel cotto.

            Again, I'm not sure how it can be seen as a positive thing when you lose to a guy with 5 losses who just lost 2 fights ago.

              he would have done so if he could.

                cotto always had great determination. but he did not play that card. he's felt so confident. he began to refer to himself in 3rd person so on. a lesson showing to stay true to himself as a boxer and never limit urself by telling urself u are at the peak. always aim higher.

                  He couldn't throw to the body because it would risk him getting K.O'd

                    Margo's constant pressure nullified cotto's bodyshots... cotto kept on moving and cannot plant his feet properly to throw those body punches.
