Did Cotto had wrong gameplan for MARGARITO?

I disagree, I remember the few times Cotto stood his ground and closed his guard, he was able to see all those punches coming and come back with harder shots, but then he would step out and started dancing again, I was like wtf! I think the major problem was his condition wasn't there + running around + getting caught on the ropes.Comment

Mosley did NOT fight Margarito much on the inside untill he had him hurt. If you watch the fight again Mosley would throw 5 hellacious haymakers from the outside to margarito's unprotected head then clinch Margarito with all his strength and move him to the ropes when ever Margarito got to the inside. Mosley repeated this until he wobbled Margarito, then he took it to the inside on Margarito and KOed him. I doubt Cott has the physical strenth to do all that clinching and moving a bigger man to the ropes without tiring.Comment

He had the wrong game plan, before the Cotto-Margarito fight I laid out the same exact plan that Mosley used against Margarito, but the ever wise NSB poster told me that I didnt know ****, that know body could go foward and trade with Margo or fight on the inside with him, even less pushing him back, nor KO him.
You can check my posts so you can see im not liying.
He should of do what Mosley did, instead of running around like a dumass all night, he should of stay on the inside and rip margo with body shots, and tie him up.
Good call. I think Cotto will brutalise Margarito in the rematch. He knows what not to do now and Mosley provided the blueprint for beating the cheater.Comment

Yep, I said before the fight, but you know how it is on NSB.
Anyways I think Cotto wil destroy margo if they ever fight, again because they it looks like they never will.!!!!!!!!!Comment

Styles make fights. Can Cotto beat Margarito? sure.... can he destroy him? I don't think so.Comment

I'm glad you see this too. Mosley is physically stronger than Cotto. I'm not talking about power. Mosley just has the ability to move a larger man like Margarito in the ring. I don't think Cotto can do what Mosley did.Mosley did NOT fight Margarito much on the inside untill he had him hurt.

I think he will. Cotto might not be saying much publicly about the handwrap scandal, but you can bet privately he is wondering whether Margarito used them in their fight. He will want to avenge that loss, mark my words!
Anyways, what are your predictions for the Clottey fight, since it looks like its almost finalised?Comment

Why not? Since Mosley showed what could be done against Margarito, there is nothing preventing Cotto from hittin the gym and gaining pure physical strength.
How do you think Mosley became that strong? He was benching 300lbs when he fought at 135lb.Comment
