I just saw Cotto vs Margarito again...

[e-low]

i think he was trying but he ran out fo stamina cus he was using his damn legs too damn much and not clinching(resting)

yah, very much so. Also if any of you box or kickbox, u will find out that its much more tiring fighting backwards then fighting forwards. If Cotto works in his gas tank, he can win, but i just dont see it happening for some reason.

Cotto could have won that fight, if he only clinch more. He's just have too much pride to clinch but you know clinching is part of boxing. Its perfect for fighters that likes to go forward. For example: Mayweather vs Hatton. Obviously you cant trade with someone who's got superman chin just like Margarito. You should swallow your pride and do everything you can do to win. He's agile enough to throw combination then get away. Clinching would help with your stamina too, you can clinch and rest.

co-sign a few clinches can change alot of things

Cotto just has to get in and get out faster..
Like how pacman did it with DLH

In and out..
Less combos..
Basically how floyd fights, one shot at a time..

He has to stay in the middle of the ring..
Stay off the ropes

Exasctly! That is what kills me with this Floyd is ducking Margarito talk, Floyd would outbox him easily to a 12 round decision, which was pretty much proven with that fight. Tony lacks the hand and foot speed to keep up with him.
