    he made mistakes.mistakes that cost him the fight.
    Did he make mistakes or is it just the way he fights?

    Don't get me wrong I am a big Cotto fan but I think he just likes to engage a little too much. That type of fight does not suit going up against a guy like Margarito. I'm just not sure if you can alter that in Cotto.

      this fight would mimic Hopkins vs. Pavlik... a lopsided domination by the better boxer...

        That's exactly it. Cotto had taken unnecessary risks to fight Margarito toe to toe, when he didn't have to. He also got caught on the ropes way to much. Every time he got on the ropes, Margarito landed an uppercut. Floyd would be dancing all night, but I don't doubt the pressure could get to him.

            hanging on the ropes is a mistake.he went in with one game plan and it was obvious.watch the ceballos fight, watch how he use to handle a pressure fighter.

              How can I watch that fight? Do you know if it is downloadable on the video trading block forum?

              I would pick Cotto to win a rematch against Margarito. I think it is just a matter of Cotto understanding that he needs to engage less with Margarito.

                  Margarito gets battered bruised and beaten for 36 minutes straight.....

                  Mayweather wins every round....by a mile.

                  This is a mismatch.

                    this would be a counter punching massacre only Margarito would never get hurt so he would just look ****** following Floyd around and taking shots to the kisser. Mayweather would land 60% of his punches and Margarito would think he won since he never went down
                    ahahahah classic

                    very true

                      Agreed.

                      This argument has been beaten to death. We all know whose voting for who... Floyd wins, I dont give a **** what anyone says. I dont know why everyone is dying to see this fight, it would be boring as hell. Mayweather will not engage and Marg will be swinging at air. Who the hell wants to see that?
