          A mixture of reasons. Margarito wasn't able to cheat, he was shot and Cotto employed better tactics.

            because Pacquiao pretty much ended his career.

            Cotto just had to show up

            Pacquiao and the doctors won that fight no one else.


            The trolls will claim its because "hurr no bricks with plaster,brass knuckles and snake venom, were on his gloves that night "

                He stayed off the ropes for the most part and that eye of margs swelled like a mofo after second round.

                    they didn't fight the last 2 rounds when margarito was coming on
                    margarito's eye was fu-ked, ortiz would have quit 5 times by then
                    they wore bigger gloves
                    oh wait i meant no plaster!
