    Wow, I hope that video was taken on the first day of camp because Margarito was slow, sluggish, footwork was trash, and got pounded with a few combos.

    If he looked like that.......he is going down.

      I did not like Cotto vs. Mayorga because Cotto's defense seemed a bit sloppy at times. He was tagged with wild shots and had a few problems with Mayorga here and there. Overall, he dominated but did not look as sharp as I expected.

      Against Yuri Foreman, I thought he worked in a spectacular way. Some biased fans say that he fought a one legged fighter but the truth is he was dominating him before the injury happened. He was easily outboxing Yuri and looking as skilled as ever.

      I know styles make fights so, probably, Cotto's gameplan will look different than in both of those fights. Each fight is a new situation and he has to adjust accordingly.

          Mayorca has a "wild and crazy" figthing style. Extremely random and overall dificult to "read".

          Lastly, he has/had a very good jaw and Cotto put him down with one punch and made him quit. Hit him so hard he was thinking that he broke his hand. lol

            I know, I just expected Cotto to stop him in the middle rounds considering how worn out Mayorga is, but a win is a win. That left hook in the 12th was great though.

              With the small clips they showed I wouldnt come to that conclusion so fast, They likely showed what they wanted You (Cotto) to see...

                He was way sharper back in 07. Compare his fights against Cintron/Williams/Martinez/Cotto to his recent ones. He is on the worst decline (compared to Cotto).

                  Whoever wants to get a bet going, let me know. I'll even do one that Cotto doesn't touch the canvas once.
                  Ill take you up on that bet....


                  Cotto will touch the canvass

                      again Cotto in fight one was hitting him with 2-3 shots and he walked through them and still stopped him.
                      Do not buy into those clips there is a reason they are allowed to put those clips out to the public.....
