I keep hearing about all these Miguel Cotto fans who supposedly disappeared..

[Two Clips]

There's a reason why he didnt go to the body. First off, he'd have to get in close, this was suicide against Margarito. I dont think he had stamina problems, I think it's mainly Margarito body attack that slowed Cotto down.

Your exactly right Marg was ****in' that body all night...I guess he was thinking Cotto's supposed to have a great body attack let's see how he can stand up to this mexican warrior's body attack. Or maybe it was because most of the fight Cotto kept his hands up and was slipping punches beautifully he just decided to go for the body...but anyway it was a great fight and I will be telling my son about this one when he's old enough to understand and maybe my grandkids one day, it was truely a classic and both fighters should have made their race very proud.

if cotto had just focused on that body on going in and coming back out while hitting that body .. maybe the fight could have panned out differently.

what a fight - in defeat, cotto - in spite of what all these bitches out here are trying to substantiate saying that he quit - went out like a man and tried his best against a guy who was just bigger than him.

margarito's chin is made of granite.

I have to give props to Cotto fans for showing good behavior after the fight. They gave plenty of props to the winner, and I barely saw any excuses. You don't see that often after big fights from loyal fans, or "nuthuggers" lol.

[Soldier01]

I kept saying it through out the fight. Why isn't he attacking the body ? It was like he totally abandoned the body attack. Easier said than done right ?
Nevertheless, Cong**** to Marg he was in excellent shape and definitely looked much improved from when he fought PW & Kermit.

Great fight even though my boy loss but he'll most definitely be back.

[Gato2012]

Cotto will be back. There will be a rematch a little down the road. Cotto will win another title and then rematch.

But for now let Margarito and his fans enjoy this great victory.

I think it's a little too early to call AM a legend. He's certainly the undisputed WW champ but having lost to PW ( I thought he won), nearly losing Clottey and a 37-5 record is hardly legendary.

Let's see him beat Winky Wright next and he'll be on his way........

The bitterness is showing in u son. What a rediculous statement to say he has to beat winky first your confused on weight classes, second winky hasnt done **** and hasn't fought in over a year please don't be so ******. How did marg bearly lose to clottey? U obviously didn't see that fight and obviously have no Idea how all three judges scored the fight.

Lol guys. He didn't go to the body for a reason. People who have boxed know why. To put it simply there's a saying to help explain for our non boxers here. Committing to the body. When you throw body punches you commit yourself with your foot work by planting your feet. He couldn't afford to do that against Margarito. He had to move and box and throwing to the body would just allow Marge to trade and get the better of the exchanges. That's why Cotto did not go the body. A jab to the body you can argue he should have thrown more but not actual power punches to the body.

PS I'm a Cotto fan and I post here still. I picked Marge to win after the weigh in and sucks that my prediction materialized the way it did. He'll probably take the year off and come back in March hopefully with more resolve and determination.

Cotto is lucky he wasn't in there with Paul Williams, he had trouble with Margarito who punches slower then anybody, if he fought Williams he would've left in a pine box. I told all of you Cotto ****riders he has a weak chin and always fades late in fights. His "boxing" is hilarious, he's very slow footed, circles always to the left, with his hands down. You said 2501 came back and posted, where is that *****?? I got a sig and av for him...and a thread where a bunch of us Williams, Mayweather fans slap him around like the hoe he is.

[Sin City]

i have not been here long enough to know who has disapeared and who hasnt. but i think its ******, cotto fought his heart out and his fans have got nothing to be ashamed of.

We aren't ashamed we are proud of our boy! Only cats trying to talk **** are mostly *****s but it ain't working.. no matter what they say or do, our boy had the balls to step into the ring with Margarito.. Mayweather didn't because he was scared.

Williams got outboxed by Cintron.. I highly doubt that.
