Something i noticed about Cotto in the Margarito fight..............

i also think this is what stewart meant when he said cottos footwork was a mess when he first joined the team..

I've suffered from the same problem as Cotto when i started boxing.

As a lefty, it's hard to keep that foot from crossing over. I don't do it much now, but it still happens now and again.

More than likely.

Cotto seemed to keep his weight more central in the Foreman instead of reverting to having his weight exclusively on the front-font, that to me is why he used to get raked with uppercuts, he was leaning in too much and because he had those ear muffs on he was wide open up the middle, infact a combo that stuck in my mind that Margarito used against him to good effect was, a double uppercut with the left hand to jar his head outta his gloves, then a booming right over the top when he jarred his head out of his gloves.

this cotto is pretty far removed from the evangelista trained cotto. dude developed some pretty bad habits
