    4) One pace. Think about the fight. You almost can't distinguish one round from the next. The fight was going by so fast for two reasons: a) it was a very good fight. But b) because it was the same **** happening over and over. Do you remember when Floyd had ricky hurt at the end of round 8? What did he do in round 9? Move in for the kill? No. He jabbed Ricky silly. Changed the pace. Kept the guy off balance. Boxing is about adjustments. Miguel just kept circling and countering, and Tony kept getting closer and closer. Against Shane, Miguel made the late-round adjustment to backpedal and box. Against Tony, he tried that tactic for the WHOLE FIGHT. This sounds strange to say, but the fight I was reminded of mostly was Taylor-Chavez.
    this is the most important one. cotto couldn't set the pace to where he felt comfortable. either you have to speed up the pace with tons of punches and not let margarito get off (ala williams) or you have to slow down the pace and not let margarito get into a rhythym (ala santos)

    • I thought that evolution was going to prevail. The Mullet that Margarito was wearing seemed to be a shock absorber. Cotto built his name on body shots! This was the first time he didn't use them against his toughest opponent Antonio "cromagnum dome" Margarito.

        He isn't inaccurate. But he isn't accurate enough.

        He isn't unskilled. But he isn't skilled enough.
        Very true.

          Cotto should've been on the inside? That's where Tony ****ed him up. Clottey was fighting on the outside and so was Williams. Nobody beats Tony on the inside, not at this weight anyway.
          Actually, that's where Clottey did the best. On the inside. Clottey is a stunning inside fighter. Being inside does not mean you have to have your head on their chest. Clottey was inside Margarito's punches. That's inside fighting.

            Eh? Of course he has. Go check out where the fighters he fought were at when he fought them.
