    Did Cotto had wrong gameplan for MARGARITO?

    I think he should stand more toe to toe instead boxing the guy who put incredible pressure on you.

    Whats your opinion?

      Yeah he definately he had the wrong gameplan

      #1 Headhunted Margarito too much
      #2 Didn't attack the body enough
      #3 Stayed on the ropes too much

      He most certainly should not have gone toe-to-toe with Margarito.

              Yeah definetly the wrong game plan. He should of went to the body ALOT more. I think he should of tryed to move forward instead of backpeddle, He's a much better fighter when moving forward. Also Margarito can't fight moving back. And he should of clinched more and not let Margarito throw as many punches.

                  Yeah he had the wrong gameplan. Quitting is no way to win a fight.

                    Duh... if he would have just boxed like he did but not boxing for the K.O... Boxing for the win.

                    He would have won easily... shouldn't have thrown the ridiculous combos that made the fight so go...

                    simple punches win rounds and box..

                    With more stamina he wouldnt have had a problem though.. So Cotto did a good job just got tired towards the end from the onslaught from margo..

                    I seriously wonder if the gloves had something in them for that fight. And I say wonder because we will probably never know. I love cotto but not like a cottosexual who will automatically tell a margonad that he had plaster of paris in his gloves.
