    Evangalista Cotto: "Marg was the Better Man That Night"

    Found this Spanish speaking interview with Evangalista where he talks about Henry Bruseles, Jesús Rojas and Daniel Jiménez. He also states Cotto's nose & breathing was a big issue in the fight, but does state Margarito had a good game plan coming in and was the better man that night.

    It's ironic that the trainer says Cotto is the better fighter but Margo was the better man that night.I guess you can't teach heart ,balls,and an iron chin can you?

      Yeah good game plan Marg - same as ****in always wade in with no gaurd against head shots and swing away!
      Man that guy is lucky he was blessed with that chin of his! BUT he is and he deserved the win.
      I thought the Nose was a big issue, Cotto is all class he didnt even mention it

        Cotto is a better boxer all around but the better man adapted to his situation and used his strengths and that fighter was margarito and that is why he won.

          I do think Cotto is the better fighter. It just wasn't his night. Props to Marg. He did his job.
