96-94, I had Cotto winning 5 of the first 6 and one more (9 or 10 maybe) after that. Every round except for a few of the first ones were closely contested though. I could see another round to Margarito or another one going to Cotto.
I had it 6 to 4, 96-94. MI-GUEL Cotto. Classic, I gotta tell ya somethin', Margarito wasn't cuttin' that ring off until about the 6th round and only had slight succes because Cotto began to tire. Cotto got off betta in the first half of the fight, but once Tony caught up to him, the fight switched. Anyway, the 11th changed all this, so I'm gonna go practice making my voice go as high as it can when I get excited.......
95-95 for me BUT i knew Tony was going on to win the fight even if not by stoppage, hsi stamina is awesome and Cotto was fading fast due to the punishment to the body especially.
There was a definite shift in the fight after the 6th round. Cotto did well in the first half of the fight. I have him winning 5 rounds out of the first 6. I actually gave Margarito Round 4 and every round after 6.
I had Cotto clearly won 5 of the first 6 also. There was also one round where Cotto dominated 2:45 of the round but Margarito hurt him at the very end so that one is kind of iffy and depends on how you score fights.
Either way Cotto 5 or 6 rounds and Margarito 4-5rounds going into the 11th. But the 2 KD's would've given Margarito a 2-3 point advantage going into the 12th round if Cotto had survived the 11th.
