    Cotto's performance against Mosley. I got into boxing in 2007 and had noticed his rise to the top but it was that fight that made me think "holy crap, this guy if really freakin good!". I youtubed all of his previous fights and just totally loved his style. I remember when the Marg fight came along I thought it was gonna be easy work for Cotto, he just looked so invincible, but I was in for a rude awaking when I learned that he lost.

        Ill became a fan of gerald after watching a few of his fights loved his devastating body shots and that straight right. Not to mention his iron chin its a shame we never got to see his true potential though i doubt he would of beat toney or jones jr

          Margarito was my favorite boxer to watch.. Always gave it his all, very entertaining style! His chin was legendary.. Oh and not to forget the beating he put on the fighter I hate the most (Cotto).

                  Nah Mexicans will remember Cotto as the one who took a knee against Margs and ran like a coward against Pacquiao and Margs in the second fight.. Maybe you meant Drama Queen, cuz I agree with you then.. LMAO

                    BHOP was my first favorite. i started really watching boxing with my dad when i was in middle school. Seeing BHOP completely school Pavlik was the icing on the cake for me and it made me follow boxing more. the first Floyd fight i had seen was against Judah, i like what i saw, but he wasn't one of my favorites. as his populartity grew, i started to become more and more of a fan and realized just how talented he is. eventually he became my favorite. while Floyd is still my favorite, Andre Ward is taking his place. The guy is just an amazing fighter, fights everyone, a good dude and seems invincible. on top that hes a Cali native.

                      Yes I'm sure all Mexicans will remember him that way Margs will be remembered as a disgrace to the sport and forced into retirement against the man who said he hit like a girl. Sweet justice.
