Comments Thread For: Margarito: My Punches Are What Really Stopped Cotto

The fact of the matter is; no one has to fight him. Pacquiao chose to give him that second chance in the limelight. Cotto doesn't have to fight him either.

He's back in the gym and in the ring, working harder than 99% of fighters out there, like it or not.

Despite the loss, Margarito looked great against Pacquiao. Garcias got him throwing a great jab..

LOL, hillarious. You're probably the only ****** in the world that thinks that.

The thing people forget is Cotto busts up really easily. Margarito has kind of became that way too, but I still factor in the aspect of each guys' ability to withstand punishment. And neither one of them have defense, but Margarito's chin is still way better. And Cotto still leans in for uppercuts even though Steward claims he doesn't. I watched the fight with Foreman, it's just that Foreman never threw any.

Just factor in a common opponent too. I know Clottey hurt his hand and all that, but it's still the idea that Margarito beat him more convicingly. And Clottey had a bad leg after Cotto threw him down and Cotto still ran for his life in that fight.

People claim I like Margarito and that's not really the case. But I got him beating Cotto all day, everyday and twice on Sunday.

Your dumb ass seems to forget cotto fought with one of the nastiest cuts on his eye from the third round on vs clottey he was fighting with one eye 3/4 of the fight.

Back that **** up in the ring Tony, although i doubt some will admit that he probably came in fair and square against Cotto no matter how badly he beats him down the 2nd time, which he will IMHO.

Which goes back to my point that Cotto's face gets busted up. Margarito got head butted too didn't he? Fought with an ankle injury. Cotto stans are the kings of excuses. Cotto got beat up against Clottey and there's no way of getting around that.

Marg must win or be damned further.

why did pacquiao, a much smaller fighter, landed almost 500 punches on that great jabber's face? great jabs tend to make people stay at a distance... margo must have plaster in his hands and magnets in his chin

Margarito: My Punches Are What Really Stopped Cotto

Good one

[LeadUppercut]

easy fight for margs, cotto wont stand a chance cotto needs to retire. mayo backed up cotto and cotto started to fold but then came back to his sense when mayo backed off him.so no cotto is not beating margs ever

Mayo had power, Margo does not.

You cannot compare those two as opponents, or as an indicator.

[saguirre057]

I think Margs is in Cotto's head; Cotto knows he is a tough SOB; his punch resistance seems to be intact as evidenced by the amount of punishment he took from Pacquiao; Cotto doesn't want to see the Margs that showed up against Pac-man cuz if he does its night-night time for Cotto!!!
