Did Tony really take something out of Cotto?

[el malo]

The win of Margarito is in question cause he might have use plaster in his wraps. How can this fight show that Margarito took something out of Cotto. Cotto had a cut in the fight but kept going. Cotto showed heart in this fight.

what i learned from this fight is that marg did use plaster. marg punches slower and with less power than clottey and marg did alot more damage than clottey plus marg was able to wear down cotto quicker than clottey.

I don't know about you guys, but I think tony took a lot out of miguel. he did not look the same tonight & i cant help but wonder if he's now on the downside of his career? Based on how he looked, I think at this point pbf toys with him & pac possibly stops him.

I love miguel and all but he does not look like the same fighter tonight. granted the cut played a part and clottey is a very good fighter, but miguel looked fatigued early. he ate a lot of clean shots, was being backed consistently, didn't go to the body as much etc etc. Just my opinion.

BTW i had cotto by a point.

Thoughts?

I don't think so. cotto looked the same like he did against margo.

styles make fights and clottey is different from floyd and pac. clottey is stronger than both, has a better defense than pac and hits harder than both. the fact that cotto couldnt hurt clottey made clottey the more agressive fighter, constantly putting pressure on cotto. and cotto aint at his best when being pressured, floyd and pac wont put the same kind of pressure on cotto wich would make cotto the pressure fighter. and cotto fights better when he's the agressive fighter putting pressure.

fair point. you didn't think it was concerning watching the number of times cotto has clottey against the ropes and just watched him or back away? I havent seen him do that before.

I thought he fatigued and started backing up much earlier in this fight. I just think the wars are starting to show their toll, namely the war with marg.

I'm sure Marg took sumthin outta Cotto, but it showed tonite that he didn't flat out ruin him by no means.

Who has knockdown Clottey in his career? thank you. lol

[MOTHER DUCKER]

Not sure, but not many

That was a knockdown no doubt but it was not a im hurt knockdown more a flash off balance and taken down, he didn't hurt him at all basically.

So you would use your head because nothing else could have messed up cotto? well probably plaster uh?

How hard is it for you Cotto stans to understand Cotto CANT FIGHT FOR **** BACKWARDS???

[el malo]

fair point. you didn't think it was concerning watching the number of times cotto has clottey against the ropes and just watched him or back away? I havent seen him do that before.

cuz of clottey's defense and counter punching. its hard to get clean shots on clottey. thats probably why cotto did those things. the wars are gona affect cotto like anyother fighter. maybe he aint what he was before. but i think the fact that he finish the fight with the bad cut and all shows he still has something left in the tank. but the tank aimt full thats for sure.
