    It's obvious the bleeding in the nose caused him a lot of problems but that wasn't just it. Margarito constantly pounding his body and landing his own fair of punches overall conspired against him. I also dunno why they jammed all that vaseline up the nose when I can't imagine it helping him breathe any better when it's thick and clumpy ****. It's like patching up a leaking boat so nothing can pass through again. But I mean, you don't want to take credit away from MArg, after all, he had to weather a hailstorm of brutal punches before he was able to get in his licks. I just think if Cotto hadn't had a busted nose, he would have been able to constinue his successful strategy abit longer to bank more than half the fight and survive long enough to reach the final bell, winning a very very close UD or maybe even SD.

      In a Rematch and with a good trainer he will whoop margo.
      He has a good trainer. They could have done a better job stopping the bleeding though.

            This is not an excuse at all! The bad nose was due to a punch. It was Margaritos night. He beat him fair and square.
            I guess this question is for those on this site that have a boxing backround. You are the only ones that could answer this with any validity. Most of the time your cut-man can stop the bleeding with the tools they have but they just couldn't find an answer in that fight. It is what it is....

                This is why the REAL fans want a rematch.

                What would happened if Cotto's nose wasnt so busted up ?

                Same with the Marg-Williams.

                If Marg would have started "faster" Would he have won ?

                So I think both fights deserve a rematch.

                  cotto gasses all the time even without a busted nose. that's why cotto switches southpaw and runs when he has to.

                      That's what i was gunna say. Yes the nose did cause him problems, but the reason it cause him problems is because Margarito busted his nose up with punches. Therefore, It is no excuse.

                      Cotto lost. He might win a rematch, But he lost this fight fair and square.
