Question for the mayweather mafia...

[Mary Jane]

ok true but tell me you wouldnt have done the same thing if you were in his shoes and getting hit with plaster?

I'm not Miguel Cotto. I wasn't getting paid millions for the fight.

You know, the thing is, Paul Williams didn't get hit nearly as much, see what a simple clinch can do?

Cotto had the perfect game plan also. His problem was, the uppercut (Burt Sugar picked Margarito because of the uppercut, so did I) and that was the key punch. Honestly, he just gassed due to Margarito's body attack

Still, CLINCHING would have won him the fight. Just a simple clinch would have done it

Shane Mosley did it.
With or without plaster it wouldn't make any difference.

in spurts though

the ideal way to beat Tony is to keep him in the middle of the ring and turn him into shots. Sounds easy but Tony is a mother****er that's hard to discourage. Cotto did it well but also languished on the ropes far too much and it allowed Tony to grind him down. Also, knowing that Tony's uppercut is his money punch him and Evangilista should have worked on keeping Cotto off his front foot so much as it put Cotto's head in a position for Tony to land it

also clinching requires a lot of strength especially in regards to a strong guy like Tony. Mosley is a beast and was able to tie up Tony at will something I doubt Cotto could have done as successfully as Shane did

I agree, same could be said to Cotto. If Margarito was indeed loaded against Cotto, Cotto was still more then capable of winning that night

Good point man, still, honestly, I think he'd of wasted less energy cliching as oppose to running at every corner of the ring.
