    Margo's body shots from round 2 on, did the trick.

    The fact the announcers kept missing.

    By the 6th, it turned into Margarito's fight completely whereas in the first 5 Cotto had the flashier punches but was getting punished to the body.

    Margo then systematically worked downstairs then upstairs hitting anything he could and a lot.


    In a rematch, Margs has the mental edge.

      Margarito fought the fight of his life.
      OK but plaster makes a fighter like Cotto to fade and go backwards after feeling those brick punches.

        And Pac was on steroids right?

        Wonder what the next excuse will be, when Cotto does it again.


        These were two pressure guys that made Cotto retreat with a variety of shots.

        The bully got bullied. Deal with it.

Paul was 30 more secs from going to sleep that night, but his jab saved the night... PW took much more punishment that night though...
            actually it's the other way around...margarita didn't want a part of Williams cuz he knew he could never beat em...

                  If the pac-mrg fight goes 12 rounds, pac wins UD, Cotto-Marg 2 will happen

                    I hope Cotto Marg II happens. Only thing is Cotto is drinking and partying way too much in PR.

                      He knocked the last guy down, a guy who fought at 168, and he won 12-0.

                      Got any excuses for that?

                      Or the Pac fight?

                      Cotto lost fair and square.

                      It's not the end of the world.
