    cotto mentally pre-margo and post-margo

    pre-margo: cotto thought he was invincible

    post-margo: cotto now knows he isn't invincible

    this has nothing to do with confidence. cotto is still a confident guy in himself and his capabilities. the difference now is that he knows he has vulnerablities and hopefully him and his team work to cover up those vulnerabilities.

    saying cotto is shot, ruined or his mentallity is weak is wrong.

    cotto is still mentally strong, but now he knows his limitations. nothing wrong with that. in fact it's healthy. only a nutjob is delusional about his abilities... like hatton believing he can fight cotto if/when cotto wins... pure delusion.

    Roach said that no Cotto-stans have said that*well, maybe some did that I missed but for the most part I haven't seen anyone say he is shot other then roach.
    Roach is the one discrediting Mannys win.

          I wouldn't be either if someone accidentally or purposely bashed my head/eye open with their huge-ass head.

            I'm not concerned about cotto mentally. I'm more concerned about him physically.

                  The way Cotto has trained for this fight domonstrates how strong his mental state is for this upcoming event, I don't see any problems in the fight for him. The possibilities of him winning this fight are pretty substantial, that's why Roach keeps saying that Pac will be the one winning the fight by knockout which in turn states his insecurity about this fight, his job is exactly that, give Pac the mental edge, the physical edge is on Cotto's side, something that Roach already has in the back of his head!!

                    end the fight in round 4 due to the cut.


                    3-1 cotto... one of the rounds being a 10-8

                    alright thats a wrap, stop the fight and lets go home.



                    nah... lets keep fighting.

                    and he wasnt confident.

                    u failed
