It’s quite simple.
In both fights Margarito used plaster. He started late because the plaster didn’t harden yet.
When the plaster got harder, Williams dug deep and fought like a real American champion. With an Iron chin and incredible heart. He didn’t let the late Margarito rally shake him one bit. Williams went on to school Margarito 9-3 with a clinic boxng display in the 12th.
Cotto on the other hand was exposed as exposed can be. Had a great start. But his stamina, chin and mainly his heart let him down. Unfortunately Cotto willingly took two knees for no reason. And signalled his corner to end the figh. Had Cotto has the heart chin and stamina of Williams he would have won that fight.
But heart is something you can’t develop
