    I don't think Margarito used illegal hand wraps against Cotto. What is so obvious to you is not obvious to me. I think Margarito beat Cotto fair and square. He took everything Cotto could throw at him and stayed after Cotto until he wore him down and stopped him with legal punches and fists inside legal handwraps. After the Cotto fight Margarito took off his gloves and was hugging people and shaking hands and doing interviews.If he really had on illegal handwraps common sense tells me he would leave his gloves on and get the hell out of there before he got caught with"illegal handwraps".Pacquiao was a better fighter than Cotto and always beats him in my opinion at 145 or 147.If Cotto lost his killer instinct from one ass kicking then he did not have a good killer instinct to begin with.His killer instinct seemed to be alive and well when he fought lesser fighters like Mayorga. I think Cotto was and is a very good fighter but not as good as you think he is or was prior to fighting Margarito.

        I am a big fan and respect Cotto. Lets remember that Miguel still fought Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather. If Marg was never born he's still not beating them.

          Those fights might have never happened if Cotto beats Margarito in that first fight. It would've changed the trajectory of his career.

            In what way, what do you think would be different?

              Well for one, as I've stated in this thread a few times, I think he would've gotten that shot at De La Hoya in December that Pacquiao got and I have no doubt he would've beaten him, as De La Hoya should've been retired. It would've been a huge win and instead of being on the comeback trail, he would've been number one and an even bigger draw than he is today. Pacquiao might not have moved up to WW as quickly if the De La Hoya shot didn't present itself. A lot of things would be different.

                  Why not?

                  Maybe his right was already good,

                  Then needed something extra on the left.

                  praise go to god for oldsley humiliating as he had that embarrassed smirk on his face.

                  To think that plaster should always be on the strong hand is dumb
