Did Floyd "retire" in 2007 because he was shook by the 147 division heating up?

      Not correct. Cotto became paper thin skin after Margarito plastered him and crushed his inner tissue/epidermis creating lots of scar tissue reason Cotto gets marked so easily now.

      If you see all his fights BEFORE the Margarito you'll see. Even with Mosley, where they exchanged brutally, he only had a bit of bleed from the lip.

      The bleeding vs "headbutt" Clotty was due to just that, massive headbutt.

      Get the facts straight and stop spreading false rumors.
      True story.

      Cottos skin wasnt like it is now until after margarito 1.... Its a common misconception now amongst new fans that it was always like that.
