Tony did better than Diaz, De La Hoya, Hatton, Cotto and Clottey COMBINED.

[Monte Fisto]

Tony hurt Pac, something the rest never did.

Tony had a high % rate of landed power punches and he was getting hit with huge shots that hardly seem to wobble him. Yet he still came marching forward looking to fight.

He was fighting right up until the last bell, after all those punches he had taken, after his face was all messed up. That's a warrior IMO.

That's horse****. PAC had a similar response in terms of how much pain and damage he took from Cotto. In fact, below is a lil reminder

**** Margarito. The ****ing cheat.

[Sin City]

Margarito, besides a few seconds in a few rounds was never ahead.. sure Margarito had a few moments here and there but he didn't even win a round, Cotto did.

[Motofan]

Cotto won rounds. Margarito lost every single one. Even Clottey marked Pac up worse.

I agree with you that tony is a ***ing beast for making it thru the fight with his eyes in that condition any one would quit but not tony he just wanted more. He landed some good punches and really hurt pac with that one shot to the body. But toney was ready to go two times in the fight but showed his heart by surviving and landing bombs on pac too but pac is just superhuman he gets hit doesnt get hurt and just shrugs it off and hits you even harder.

That's a big f**kin' lol. 'Rita had his moments, I'll give him that. But, that's hardly being competitive.

And ****, shouldn't it be the much bigger man the one bullying the much smaller man ? Yet, it was the undersized fighter who hand it to him. The fact that he had such a huge size and strength advantage and that's all he could muster, well, I can't give him props.

I give Cotto more props for his performance against PAC. Since PAC and Miguel were very close in size.

He was competetive up to the start of the Championship rounds, where the punishment he was taking started to show in his legs. That's the majority of the fight.


What does size and strength matter if you're outgunned in every other department? It is what it is. Regardless of whether you think his landed punches were unworthy for their failure to blow Pac's ribs apart or knock his head off, Tony walked through blazing-fire to land them.


I dig Cotto, but no way does he get greater acclaim just based on that size screed.

Cotto won rounds. Margarito lost every single one. Even Clottey marked Pac up worse.

Well not acording to the cards toney won two rounds but at least he wasnt running like a bittch when the tuff gets going like cotto does. He fought all until the 12 and still was trying to win unlike cotto who after the knock down he basically threw in the towel and was just trying to make till the end.

Tony had Pacquiao visibly doubled-up and scrambling to get off those ropes and away from him. Pac was hurt and he knew it.


Cotto hit him hard, he felt it, but Pacquiao never had a moment like that in their fight.

[MACAQUEINBLACK]

Margarito, besides a few seconds in a few rounds was never ahead.. sure Margarito had a few moments here and there but he didn't even win a round, Cotto did.

You're WRONG.


Failure to at least give it up for the fighting heart of Tony earns you a DQ.


So bitter,

[-MARKAVELLI-]

Lol with this thread!

Remember if only Pacman didn't show mercy to Margaputo, he would have hattonized him in the 11th round.

Ts wouldn't even made this ****** thread.
