Margarito vs cotto rematch

[MELLY-MEL...]

unless ssm ruined tony's chin i think tony may still be to much for cotto. styles make fights, and i am not sure cotto could keep him off for 12 rds, unless that plaster really made that much difference, which we won't know till they fight again. or we have a better understanding of exactly how the wraps would have affected the fight. i just wish the commission would give us a detailed report of this ****.

He lost 2 fights at 154 and has only two KO's in that division.

Look at who he fought at 154.
DLH W
Winky x2 L
Vargas x2 KO
Mayorga KO

So thats 3 KOs not 2

Margarito at 154
Santos L


At 147
DLH W
Cotto W
FOrrets x2 L

He have fought great comp.

And he is a bigger puncher than Margarito

Your right about that but don't forget that he was a guy who jumped from lightweight straight to welterweight. Also out of all of Shanes win's at lightweight only one was won by decision. His KO percentage in the welter weight division and above was less than 50%. Out of his 20 fights above lightweight only 9 of them were won by KO. Not exactly the same KO percantage as Tony's was at welterweight. He has 27 KO's in 43 pro bouts which is way over 50%

point well taken. But Tony's 62% ko record in 43 fights isn't that much better than 9 of 20. Also, don't forget, one of those KO's was tony margarito. Mosley has never been KO'ed at any weight. Cotto's KO percentage dropped drastically after going up just from 140 to 147. Shane is harder puncher than you are giving him credit for. 4 of those fights that he didn't ko his opponent were agains winky wright and vernon forrest. No shame in that. Tony wouldn't have knocked those guys out either. Another fight was against cotto and he had cotto on the run at the end of the fight. Also he had a couple no contests one of which may very well have ended in KO's (raul marquez and the first vargas fight).

The first TKO of Vargas was because of swelling so you can give or take that one but again explain Shane's sub 500. KO record above lightweight.


Another point that I forgot to mention was punch output. Who's was the one throwing over 100 punches a round against Cotto?????

I think that is very good way of explaining why Cotto was so busted up.

HE THREW MORE ***ING PUNCHES THAN SHANE!!!

Point taken but now consider punch output. Who of the two fighters is known for throwing over 100 punches a round?

Since you're pointing that out, how about the fact that Plasterito competion at 147 or above will never compare to Mosley's.

Plaster makes much more sense, he also threw more than 100 punches a round against Clottey and there wasn't a single mark on his face.
