      I think more than anything, it was Shanes speed. He couldn't see the punches coming which probably made them hurt more. Even so, I just think that Margs armour is *****ed. A lot of people always said, the punches would catch up to him eventually, and now is that time IMO.
      True, that speed was a big, big factor in the fight. As I said, we'll have to wait and see.

        I still say he has a very good chin, most fighters would have been out of there by the 6th if they kept taking all those jabs and right hands from Mosley.

          I think he landed some good shots, but the way margarito takes shots, even Mosleys potshot jab(the jab he throws to find range), was making Margos head snap back.

            Yea, although with the wraps controversy...we may be waiting a while before we see Marg again

              Mosley hits harder than Cotto, while Cintron didn't hit Marg enough

              Mosley combined Power, Speed and accuracy of which Marg had never seen before

                Man, the face in the end after the fight was sad even though I like the guy I don't think he has it anymore. Or as granite as it was.

                  His head wasn't just snapping back against Cotto, it was snapping around like a pinata.

                  Yup, he'd deserve a ban if he gets one.

                    great point - also, Mosely was hitting Cotto with right hands all night and Cotto stood up and fought back

                      I just don't understand how someone who is rated so highly have little skill. You would think Margarito would be the next Nigel Benn. He doesn't need to be most skilled fighter, but his negatives clearly outweighs his positives.
