    Cotto looked very good early on against Marg, but he looked uncomfortable to me...especially when he was on the ropes...but still it seems like outta nowhere his face was busted up, and then that cut opened up and it was a mess...gotta watch it again tho


    The Marg-Williams was uneventful cuz Marg wasn't doing **** except blocking for the first 7-8 rounds...then he started catchin Paul...he was too deep in his hole though...Paul never looked hurt to me...

      It's cool.

      I don't think it was that weird. Paul was using head movement and was very slick in the beginning. Then as the fight went on, Paul stopped moving his head and stayed planted.

      "Their fighting in a phone booth in Carson." - That line right there says it all.


      Marg is notoriously slow because his opponents are on a full tank. Then he grinds them down and they are running on E by the 12th round.

        I agree with T.S because Margarito did nothing early on and then later in the fight it's like he was catching Paul and hurting him. I read someone say Williams got tired but I disagree because Paul didnt get tired in any other fight iv'e seen him in and he also won the 12th round so I dont buy the "tired" argument. Margarito was just punching harder and harder as the fight wore on...

          That was a line from the commentating on that fight. What does that mean?

          Paul and Tony stood in the center of the ring, planted, trading shots. Of course your gonna get hit, hurt, and tired if your just standing there taking shots. That's why Paul was feeling it later on in the fight. He stood there and traded shots instead of using his range and speed like he did early on.

              Nice editing work.....

              Williams was a prospect and came in Margs backyard and took his belt.

                Tony was raised in Mexico his whole life not Cali, how is that his backyard?

                  It was a small ring but like I said before, Margarito was hitting him early and Paul kept coming. But later on he would hit Paul and Paul would grab and hold (Something he never does). Obviously he was more fresh earlier in the fight than later on but I dont think Paul lost rounds because he was getting tired, He came back and won the 12th round. Margarito wasnt hurting him at all early in the fight and then late on it's like Margarito stuns him everytime he hits him...

                  It just seemed abit strange to me...

                    Loccy come on bro lets not act like that place wasnt filled with Mexicans. I know they didnt fight in Mexico. When someone says "backyard" It can mean a hometown fight basically. He fought Shane in Cali too.
