Comparing Cotto/Marg against Pac

[DeelDough]

First of all. Theres a reason why they demanded Cotto to come in lighter.

Roach knew who the more skilled fighter was. And thats Cotto. And its not even close.

Just because Margaritos chin helped him finish the fight , it doesnt mean he was in the fight. His chin was , but his chances were out the window once he stepped in the ring. It takes skill to beat Pac. And Margarito does not have it.

Cotto was trying too. But he was hurt more than Marg because he dont have the same chin.

Pac - margarito was never a competitive fight in any point, and it was never close.

Cotto actually avoided punches. With some defensive skill.

The only reason Pac said it was hard its because he couldn't hurt Marg with all those shots he hit him with. And Margarito kept coming forwad , while Cotto had to try to box to get out of trouble.

Cotto was in trouble in multiple times. And didnt take half the beating Margarito took.But because Margarito has a fkn Iron chin.

All the people that say Marg did better because he didnt have to box to get out of trouble are ******. He was in trouble of being kd once. But he was getting dominated to the point of embarrassment.

I think cotto actually implemented skill. To try to win. But his chin is half as good as Margs. Otherwise he would have won even more rounds , and who knows , possibly even won it.

no version...prime or otherwise...of either Cotto or Margo beat Manny @ 147 lbs.

with this statement ur almost implying that I meant that.

All I said was that with the chin Margarito has , who knows what a fighter like Cotto (who actually has skills) would have done.

That is all.

Well , what can I say. Its not obvious to everyone.

Glad ur one of those bright ones that can actually analyze styles and a fight.

But there are people saying that margaritos chin did better than Cotto.

Cotto also fought Manny without a legit trainer.

yeah I kinda breezed through the original post.

but does it really matter who's chin was better? Laurence Cole was supposed to do exactly what Kenny Bayless did for Cotto....consider the long-term health of one of the fighters..and stop the fight.

There's no reason the Marg/Pac fight should've made the 11th or 12th.
