    clottey lasted against margarito but ppl are overrating that...margarito throws wild wide punches that were easily picked off by clottey...everyone knows cotto is a more precise puncher and i think that will be the difference..i think cottos side body attack will bring clotteys elbows down just enough to score upstairs!!!!!

      I personally just dont see how a mans will is broken whe nhe goes teh distance without ever being hurt other than an injury he did to his damn self.

      I think your definition of a broken will is misconstrued, honestly. 1675 punches against clottey and the dude never even so much as stumbled.

          Which FURTHER proves my point. How was his will broken? LOL.
          if anything, it's just testament to how great Clotteys vision/defense is.
          A little more workrate and you have a serious problem on your hands.

                I personally just am a bit Bias toward clottey i guess. I think he's a phenomenal. The same guys cotto was fortunate enough to fight, Clottey had challenged as well and didn't get the opportunity.. were they afraid or what?

                Cotto has just been given more TV time.. more exposure... and landed the fights that Clottey wanted. The man is more popular, it doesn't make him better though. I think people are in for a suprise come fight now is all..

                    Margarito got off that many punches because Clottey didn't fight back accordingly as the fight wore on. Williams and Mosley showed the kryptonite to Margarito and he didn't get off that many punches. I mean, I give the guy credit for finishing on his feet, but I don't buy that hand injury excuse. Margarito (as much as I've left the guy in the gutter for cheating) reportedly had injuries of his own to deal with and he gutted it out.
