He was blocking a lot of Acosta's punches in the rounds he was getting outworked. His defense isn't great, but not terrible either.

If Margarito beats Cotto, which most likely will happen, he should be trainer of the year.

Same with Top Rank and Showtime, they're all on a roll right now. HBO is the loser of them all.

his chin is all the defense he needs. Any guy with that kind of chin and power who constantly pressures you is always going to be dangerous. Adding defense to Rios will probably just mess up his style.

I felt he deserved trainer of the year last year over Roach.

Yeah, he should.

He needs to get Rios to move his head more though.

rios was hurt bad early... better defense wouldn't hurt.

against the right opponent, that shoddy defense might be enough, but like marg... it will take it's toll.
