    It's not a big deal, both fighters are way past their prime, Margarito was even slower than usual and he was fighting with one eye. I give Cotto props for having a better gameplan this time but his opponent wasn't the same and he still looked tired and worn down when the fight got stopped.

      Don't see how everyone is discrediting cotto VA Floyd but was praising pac vs cotto rematch @47
      PAC first choice was cotto wouldn't allow him to drain him again

              I agree with Mayorga and Margarito. And it took him a while to stop Mayorga, and it wasn't even a great stoppage, it was just Mayorga punking out with some phony arm injury. Another fighter who wasn't even a top 10 at JMW. Back to back fights like that, and the guy is ready for Floyd. LOL.
              who are the top 10 jr mw?truth be told even if cotto beat one of the top 10 jr mw it wouldn't mean much because no one at 154 is anything special just a bunch fighters that people assume will be good fighters at some point

                    It wasn't a big accomplishment but it was huge for his psyche.

                    He regained some of his confidence by avenging a loss....it doesn't matter how legit the win was, what it restored in Cotto is very real.
