It was Cotto who ruined Margarito not MOSLEY.

    Margarito showed one of the best chin's I've ever seen that night.

    I just could'nt understand it.
    I was thinking the same, then suddenly in the later rounds cotto is blodied all over, spitting blood, he even blew a booger blood.

      I tried making this point a while back. Non stop, full force, all power shots for 9 straight rounds by Mosley. He looked like a friggin beast that fight. For me it was very odd that he couldn't keep even half that pace for Floyd. And he had Floyd ready to go in round two, but all of a sudden he was gassed.

      But whatever, it's in the past and Shane is a great fighter. Maybe he was hungry that night and had a good camp. Compared to having a decent camp and not being as hungry since his biggest payday was there when he fought Floyd.

        punches that go in dont come out. davey moore, jeff lacey, david reid fernando vargas to name a few. were not the same fighters after they took their beatings. a fighter recovers from a quick ko much better than a prolonged beating which damages both the body and the mind

              This is absolutely true. Those two destroyed each other. Cotto has the skill to move on after, we'll see about Margarito, but neither will ever be the guy that walked in that ring ever again.

                I'm not to sure I can agree,after all Mosley in my opinion has by far the most power at 147!!

                  Shane gave Marga's the worst beating of his life,TBH might be one of the worst beatings I've seen in recent yrs..I won't lie Cotto Marga's was a hell of a fight that took it's toll on Marga's and Cotto..But styles make fights Shane KO's Marga's no matter when they fought he was made for Mosley...

                    Even Shane Mosley couldn't make Margarito's face swell up like Cotto did. Cotto may have ruined Margarito a bit, because look where they are at in their careers now. Margarito looked like **** in his last 2 fights, while Cotto still looks like he can still fight at the top level.

                      Let's also not forget Cotto is not that hard of a puncher at 147lb which is why Marga's was walking threw his shots..Mosley walk threw some bombs from Cotto remember not like Marga's cause that's not Mosley style.But I don't think he was the same punishing Puncher he was at 140lb..Cotto might have set him up to be ruined but Mosley is the guy who ruined Marga's IMO..
