    Didn't you say Cotto was one dimensional? And he does have heart guy.

      I think once Shane lands that trademark left hook Margarito will be a different fighter, Cotto's good shot is the hook to the body but he admitted he could not find an opening so he never landed the shot...but all the head blows sure did land, over and over and over, and thats what Shane does best, he's a head hunter, I give Shane a chance, but Margarito has the edge in youth and power.

        Co- sign on that although at 135 he was a wrecking ball, not 130

            Thanks for catching my mistake, I was never as big into boxing then as I am now.

              In fairness Cotto got up against Torres and Chop-Chop(to some extent) and he went with Margarito for a long time so it's not as if he's a pu$$y by any stretch.

                I don't know man, it kinda made him look bad to backpedal across the ring and take a knee before Tony even touched him.

                And I dislike Margarito in every way possible! Cotto in my opinion was making Tony look ****** at first, but then damn what an ass whooping!

                I respect Cotto for stepping up though, tony was just too big for him, kinda explains why Tony wasn't able to bully P-Will the same way.

                  What I don't understand is how people can't put themselves in another fighters shoes and look at it from their perspective. Cotto is still young and has to think about his future as a boxer and his kids. Is that *****? No.

                    Paul W showed the blueprint on beating Margarito,the problem is,at his age Mosley probably will not be able to outwork Margarito,running and defence will run u right into 1 of Margaritos crazy angles!!Angles,thats Margaritos trump card,he punches from everywhere!!

                      I agree, but you can see all his punches. A good defensive who uses his legs should get hit with none of those punches.
