    Why did Miguel Cotto lose?

    What had more to do with Cotto's shut down in the 11th round?

    1. Flaws in Cotto's game plan.

    2. The enormous bricks in Margarito's gloves.

      First and foremost, I am not a fan of Marg, but everyone saw how he walked through the punches of Cotto. Did he have plaster in his chin as well.

                Cotto's game plan wasn't the best and he slowed down considerably later in the fight, just like he slowed down in the SSM fight late.

                I think Margarito will always have Cotto's number.

                  It became obvious that with out the bricks, Margarito hit Mosley no harder than Paulie Malignaggi could have, if they were fighting. Had it not been for the illegal hand wrapping which Tony claims he knew nothing about (let's all remove the d1cks from our foreheads) Miguel would have whopped on Tony all night just as Shane did. Tony's punches would not have been a huge factor in the fight and he would have never broken Miguel's nose in the 2nd round nor would he have broken Miguel up the way he did in the later rounds. All of Tony's title fights should be changed to NO CONTEST. He should not be suspended and should be forced to take the toughest fights out there on what ever notice a promoter might come up with. Guilty, cheatin ass motha phuker. And I told you so. Capetillo, I wish Naazim Richardson would have smacked you in the jaw, as he wanted to that night you were caught cheating. Tony, well... Floyd was right, YOU ARE A BUM.
