    The question is,how come he didnt low blow Margarito?That was very uncharacteristic of Cotto.
    But wasnt the Clottey lowblow in the last round? Cotto doesnt lowblow intentionally. Thats what happens when you throw a lot of punches. The first lowblow he gave Judah wasnt that low and the second Cotto wasnt in trouble, Judah was pressing his head down and Cotto lost accuracy.

    What he does do intentionally are the wrestling moves he does everytime he gets grappled, and headbutts pisses him off too.

      He's a body puncher, body punchers stray low sometimes. Against Margs he wasn't attacking the body. Margs threw a few low blows, but like Cotto, he wasn't trying to, it just comes with the territory of body work.
      He hit Judah low immediately after getting hurt.

      That is buying time.

      He attacked Zab's balls like a dwarf version of Andrew Golota.

        You really think that was a low blow. If it was low, it was barely low.

          Dont compare him to Golota, Andrew even throws combinations at the testicles as if it were all right.

                Saying Cotto low blows intentionally is so dumb ...one day some hater prob decided to write it and it got blown out of proportion ...i was watching the ward gatti fights cuz there on hbo right now and there were a couple low blows throught the three fights and no one says **** cuz Ward is a body puncher and Gatti was a brawler who was actually focusing on the body...Cotto tries to go to the body alot and here and then you can miss but to say its intentional i think is dumb.
                He doesnt even low blow all that much any ways that judah **** was like 5 fights ago. And the one in the CLottey fight was barely low.

                  Yeah..it was low..

                  Think of all the times the ref told Judah "Don't retaliate"

                  Zab should have ignored that ***** and returned the favor on that dirty mofo.

                    It sure as hell wasn't low enough to warrant a big deal or retaliation.

                    The second one, was real bad though. But that was Judah's fault he pulled Cotto's head down.

                      GREAT POST!..

                      that's what I've been saying for the longest..look at any..and I MEAN ANY body puncher..and they all have a history of going low..no ones perfect..especially when a lot of times he's getting his head pulled down..the momentum is in full force..you get pulled down it's common sense you hit lower then what you were aiming for..
