That same thing could be said about Mosley though. Margarito fell twice, Cotto not once. Margarito doesn't take punches the same. When he gets hit, he doesn't walk through those punches. He slows down and is deterred. He is further from what he was pre Cotto than Cotto is pre Margarito. Cotto still has his boxing skills to rely on like good footwork, a good jab, and even has a better right hand. Margarito hasn't gotten better or even stayed the same in any facet of the game.
since the margo fight cotto hasnt even close to looked the same...........he looked bad against clottey,lost to manny..then fought subpar foreman and mayorga

Dont forget about the dominant performance against Michael Jennings
Whether you love or hate Arum you gotta give him props for being a savvy promoter. He saw a opportunity to promote another mega fight and took it. He is giving everyone the fight they wanna see. Now it has to happen becaues the public is demanding it.
We will find out what Cotto really thinks about the first fight.
Why is margarito stil even allowed to fight ? He ruined careers,why are people neglecting the fact he was a cheater ,he did a louie resto job to cotto,he took everything out of cotto with plastered gloves.
and many other fighters
and this is coming from some one who is not a fan of cotto
but margarito is a disgrace and so is don king and bob arum
Don't be ridiculous. Cotto's face was busting up by round two and three. Please don't compare it to Resto. Collins was being hit by fists. The padding had been taken out. There is a massive difference between those two. Margarito had a tiny piece of extra hardened gauze that was about an inch squared that was in his wraps, not in his gloves, which really would have made no difference in the way that fight went.
I'm not saying it wasn't wrong, because it was and is disgusting, but there is no proof it happened against Cotto and to compare it with the Resto thing is an insult to what happened in that fight which was 100 times worse.
Cotto's face always busts up like that and when he was getting hit as much as he was against Marg, well, I don't think it had anything to do with the tiny piece of extra gauze that was found in only one glove.
The Resto incident was infinitely worse in every way than what Marg tried against Mosley. If there is a rematch, we will see if it was that tiny piece of gauze that made Cotto's face bust up....even though we know it wasn't.
Being in his actual wrap, it would have taken the whole fight for any effect to happen and Cotto's face was busting up very early on and he was showing signs of damage, as he always does, very early on. Please don't insult the victims of the Resto incident with comparisons to Cotto/Margarito.
That was not cool considering cotto's family was right there, the fact that everyone knows his family went through alot watching him get beatdown, and anything could have happened condsidering the emotion between the two. Someone needs to punch bob in the lip.
****ING ROFL @ your sig. I dont know why but I started dying when I saw it. I just pictured it in my head if his actual nickname was Michael and how ******ed that would be/sound.
