The guy took punishment from at least the 7th round untill the 11th. He got up twice. Had his face broken in many places. Israel Vazquez, Frietas, Duran all had the physical ability not the mental ability. Cotto didn't have the physical ability that is why his corner stopped it. Cotto's uncle stopped it because his nephew was getting beaten and worn out. He took that knee out of being tired not quitting. Cotto lost. But Margarito WON the fight more than Cotto lost it. If he had a different cornerman that wasn't related god knows it wouldn't be pretty. Stop this quitting Bull**** because if it weren't for his family Cotto might have been really hurt. Good stoppage by his corner, Great Will to win by Margarito, and bad gameplanning by the Cotto crew.

Agreed. But he didn't Quit. Props for you VIVA and the rest of your clan for putting your necks on the line for Margarito. I was waiting to tell you guys told you so but I was wrong about Margarito.Comment

he backed away and took a knee to avoid margarito to continue punishing him, thats quitting, what was he trying to do then if he didnt quit? stay alive for the rest of the round? he would've gotten permanent brain damage in the last round. he did the smart thing in quitting.Comment

Cotto's Intention is something that only he would know. The guy was tired and physically drained. Yet he kept taking punishment. If he wanted to Quit he could have done it when Marg cheap shotted him on the floor but he didn't. Kenny Bayless did a great job reffing that fight, If he would have gave Cotto more time to recover we might be arguing about something else now. Vazquez said I can't go on, Duran and Frietas said No Mas so what did Cotto say that makes him quit. Margarito won the fight with a 11rd KO. ENOUGH SAIDhe backed away and took a knee to avoid margarito to continue punishing him, thats quitting, what was he trying to do then if he didnt quit? stay alive for the rest of the round? he would've gotten permanent brain damage in the last round. he did the smart thing in quitting.Comment

Vazquez couldnt breathe... Cotto's will was just taken away from him, and if u look at the fight again, u can see Cotto wink at his corner saying yes to stop the fight.. he was up for it..Cotto's Intention is something that only he would know.

Wink to his Corner? Thats Questionable with blood streaming in to my eyes I would do alot more than Wink. DIdn't A preovios person prove this theory wrong.Comment

If I walk away from my job without telling my boss, he'd take it that I quit.
Cotto took two voluntary knees in the same manner that Judah, without taking a punch. Zab got up again and tried to fight. Miguel got up and backpedaled all the way to the other side of the ring and took another knee.
It was a smart choice for him to quit.Comment
