Comments Thread For: When Antonio Margarito rocked Miguel Cotto

[djtmal]

Margacheato was a nobody

That's bs he got high profile fights damn near his whole career. Fought everybody except for Floyd Floyd was scared of him backed out of fighting him plus Margarito had him shook on video

Floyd had an early crack at taking the s off his chest but the work was too hard

Rds 1-6 were all Cotto.
With Margacheato missing 3/4 his punches
Cotto wasted energy with unnecessary bouncing around.

You're posting a 5 minute highlight video or an 11-round fight. This isn't showing anything. And no...rounds 1-6 weren't 'all Cotto'...go back and watch the fight. Am I saying Margarito won any of those rounds? Not really, but close rounds exist for a reason. Cotto was getting walked down and yes....Margarito's punches were landing.

We can't say Cotto 'wasted energy with unnecessary bouncing around' when he was being physically and mentally worn down from Margarito's pressure and landed punches. And winning the first half of the fight doesn't mean much if said fighter gets stopped in the championship rounds.

I think Cotto felt he could stand and trade with Margarito

Yeah and no. If he felt he could trade with him then he wouldn't have used the ring as much. I believe he felt Margarito would bend at some point and that never happened. Cotto was a 'big puncher' at WW but he was mainly known for his hook to the body...a punch he failed to utilize when he needed it most.

This isn't a Cotto highlight
Its the fight highlight
It shows
wait for it
THE BEST PARTS FROM BOTH GUYS

Not every moment is action packed............................................ ......................................

Cotto indeed wasted energy bouncing around when all he had to do was circle the jerk.
You either notice it or you didn't

Name them
And why won't he be allowed in the IBHOF without a ticket

And while you're ducking those high profile names, I will repeat that question you Pac Bois love to avoid

Would YOU or would YOU not avoid RANDOM BLOOD tests ?!?!?!?
