        he boxed cause even though he was moving away most of the night he still wasnt afraid to try to attack margarito even if it meant he had to trade shots sometimes. and he didnt run and hold when it was getting tough so i give him credit for being a man's man

          well in a way he was boxing for the first couple of rounds,
          but he ran out of plans, sometimes he would look like he is running because it does not come natural like floyd, that has to be in you, you can't learn that an expect to out-box margarito with ease

              I agree with you 100%, they're both runners if we apply the same logic the cotto fans has been applying to Mayweather for ages now, You cant separate it....if Mayweather is a runner then Cotto is a runner as well.

                yeah, but people don't really want to see 'stick and move' they want prime Gatti like performances

                  Cotto normally stands and fights, Mayweather never does
                  Nice try, Mayweather(started at 130)also did it against a bigger man in Baldomir and dela hoya.

                  actually, Cotto would land 3-4 punch combinations and he would move out the way. he stayed on the ropes and would actually exchange. any article you read regarding the fight stated that "cotto traded bombs". there were no fans booing and people were standing and applauding after every round. If what Cotto was doing was actually called "running", then Floyd just plain didnt even show up for the fight.

                  one love.
                  Nice try, Mayweather was also throwing combos against Baldomir and dela hoya, Cotto stayed on the ropes because Margarito brutalise his body...so he ran and ran some more until he couldnt run anymore he then went down and gave up.

                  Cotto threw Combos and boxed a lot more...

                  And got KTFO...

                      Viva calls his parents whenever someone pwns him on BoxingScene, he would definitely run from a fight. He's a fake vato who gets ass pwned by white kids at school.
