Was taking 3 more rounds of unneccessary punishment a bad decision from Cotto???

Thoughts???

He probably did it because there are a lot of ignorant people like on boxingscene who ridiculed him for submitting in the Margarito fight. When in reality a completely beat man should surrender to return and fight at his best another day.

He had something to prove to himself, IMO. He needed to finish on his feet. If it was something he needed for his personal pride, I think it was the right decision.

i seen punishment....

what cotto went threough was the tip of the iceburg because he could at least fight back

[ShatteredGlass]

Looking at it logically, yes it was a bad move.

However, he never would have lived down quitting again, I think he knew that.

That picture of Cotto is actually horrible.

No-one can question that man's courage.

With you Pac stans...he is dammed if he does and dammed if he doesnt. He would have been a quitter and now its "was it necessary. Your guy won , leave it alone.

personally i dont think it was SUCH a domination like lot are suggesting..Cotto was moving around NONstop throughout the fight and avoiding the engage..its not like he was standing there like diaz hoya and hatton when they fought pacquiao..u can say it wasnt neccessary but its not like he was getting absolutely wrecked round after round u know..he got beat and convincingly, but it wasnt murder..
