Why no one is questioning Margarito chin and got knocked down more times than CottoComment
-
Judah hurt him because he never saw it coming. He was completely exhausted against Margarito. He is human, yes he can be hurt but not to just anyone.Comment

He had some issues at 140 cause he had to starve to maek that weight at 147 hes been better. cotto was stunned a couple of time but never really hurt

Cotto has a slightly above average chin. Nothing less, nothing more.Comment

Why do you say slightly when it took 600 punch with bricks in his to make him take a knee and he took right hand all night from the same man Margarito took right hand from and one got ko'd and the other went 12rds!Comment

You act as if what I said was an insult.
What's the next step above slightly above average...very above average? You feel like Cotto has a very above average chin?
I'm a huge Cotto fan, but I'm just being real. We've seen him badly rocked twice (Corley and Torres). And granted those both happened at 140, but still, do you get that feeling that "oh Cotto won't get knocked out."
Even after what Shane did to Tony, I feel like that was an aberration. If Cotto got KO'd I wouldn't be shocked. His chin is fine, it's not something to worry about, he proved that in the Shane and Tony fights. But it sure as **** aint granite. Hence, slightly above average...like a B-/B type chin.Comment

Why so many people feel that Cotto has a suspect chin?
The few times he was hurt came when he was over training and draining hisself to make the 140lb limit. If you know anything about boxing weight drain and over training makes the body weak and yes that means your chin also!!!!!!
Zab Judah: This is the first fight he was STUNNED not hurt (there is a big differance. Chop Chop and Torres hurt him) he recovered very very quickly. We must not forget that Judah can crack and Judah caught Cotto flush with the counter straight and left uppercut. Cotto was STUNNED twice but ate the other few and spit it back out!!!
Shan Mosley: Cotto was eating right hands all night long and was never Staggered or hurt in the fight but Margarito was eating those same right in less rounds than Cotto and we all no what happened in that fight!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't want to hear that crap about he was hurt in the late rounds. I have the fight on tape and watched it over 20 times. Cotto knew he counldn't stop Shan plus he thought he had the fight in the bag so he decided the out box Shan for the remainder of the fight which was almost a mistake.
Margarito: Cotto was weaken to the body first before he was hurt to the chin. Plus even though not proven but we all (well most of us) feel that Margarito cheated in that fight and I don't care who you are if you get hit enough time with plaster you will go down. But even if Margarito didn't cheat in that fight, it still took him over 600 punch before Cotto took a knee. He never Knocked Cotto on his ass or even out. Cotto took a knee because he was hurt and tired!!!!!!!
So for anyone to question Cotto chin is crazy.
Absolutely true man. Weight-drained, Cotto's chin isn't that great. But at 147 Cotto has a solid chin. I'm glad you mentioned that Mosley-Cotto fight. I just watched it recently and I noticed all the over-hand rights that Cotto was hit by in that fight- the SAME punches that did Margarito in over the course of 9 rounds. Good post.Comment
