    We'll see, I see Miguel having more heart and a stronger mentality than Vargas. It could have been very easy for Miguel to quit after the roughing up he endured in rounds 7-8-9 of the Clottey fight, but he didn't. He didn't fold like a tent. It tells me alot about his mental fortitude and his ability to come back.
    Cotto might still have the guts to keep fighting but what happens when he gets hit by a real KO puncher? I think his mind is willing but the physical toll he took from the Margs beating will be obvious against the next elite fighter he faces. Again I like Cotto he's the kind of star boxing needs to keep the media interested but he's done. Sorry.

        Clottey would beat any british hype job in his weight-class or even if Hatton moved up Clottey would beat him. Hatton is the fringe contender. Cheating ******* had to clinch all night long against Kostya.

            Hatton was flattered by his win over Tszyu who we now know was past his best. What's your point?

              Lets see Cotto's next fight before we call him damaged goods. Dunno why cats are so skeptical just cuz he had a close fight wit Joshua Clottey and didn't look gr8.

                He's done how?

                He fought a hard fight with a badly cut eye but still fought back.

                If your shot or 'done' then Cotto would have gotten KTFO, son!

                The only problem I think Cotto has ATM is not having his uncle at his corner anymore ; not having a training leader there at all.

                  He cheated to get that win, clinch, clinch, clinch, clinch. And most hatton fans are Calzaghe fans. They will complain about bhop cheating against Calzaghe by clinching almost the entire fight but ignore it when Hatton does it against Kostya!!! Mother ****ers!

                    I'm not your son I'm almost a decade older than you kid lol. Clottety isn't a real KO puncher and had Cotto in trouble what happens if Margs or Shane get a rematch?
