Did Margarito return too soon after the Cotto fight???

I was actually thinking he took too much time off. He should have rematched Golden Johnson between fights.

no.they both took a decent amount of time off.Cotto has said in an interview that it took him the same amount for his body to heal as in other fights which is about a month.

I THINK AS A LOT OF PEOPLE ON THIS SITE THOUGHT....MARGARITO THOUGHT HE WOULD EASILY BEAT A WASHED UP MOSELY AND STACK A SECOND BIG NAME TO HIS RESUME...BUT LIKE HOYA DID WITH PAC...HE UNDERESTIMATED THE HEART OF A CHAMPION AND PAID DEARLY...
MARGARITO REMINDED ME OF DAVID REID WHEN HE FOUGHT TRINIDAD...EVERY TIME HE TOOK A BOMB HE SMILED LIKE HE WAS BEING PUNCHED INTO ******NESS.....ITS LIKE THESE GUYS SMILE AND TRY AND MAKE BELIEVE IT DIDNT HURT BUT THEY LOOK ****** AND REALLY BAD WHEN THERE ON THE CANVAS STILL SMILING....LOL

I think he may have overtrained,at the weigh-in he was 145,but hell o a job by Mosley!!!!!!!!!!!

**larryx** · 01-27-2009, 04:48 PM

yea...he shouldve waited 2 years

**sylvestersweet** · 01-27-2009, 04:50 PM

He took 6 months off, no more time was going to do him any good.

**krispy kreme** · 01-27-2009, 04:51 PM

No the time was fine. 6 months isn't a short amount of time, but not to long either. I believe it was adequate time for him to recover.

I think you're right. But then folks say those two pounds came off when his plaster wraps were carted away for the investigation..
