    Bricks was gonna get a KO doe! was getting his punk ass outboxed and outclassed the entire fight.

    Now they planned the eye injury and the stoppage. And you make fun of posters for being delusional.

      Margarito was getting outboxed for most of the first fight too.

      Watching the rematch again, I was surprised how much success a totally shopworn and one eyed Margarito actually had. Cotto only landed like 10-15 more power shots according to the stats. The way people go on about that fight as if it was a beat down in favour of Cotto. He was eating shots and his face was marked up pretty bad.

        When doesn't his face get marked up?

        I agree it was a crappy way to end the fight, but it wasn't some sort of conspiracy from the NYSAC to ensure a Cotto victory. They barely let the fight take place in the first place because of Marg's eye and it was getting hammered during the fight.

          They should have either not let the fight take place or just let it go. Margarito was still correctly answering all the "How many fingers?" questions in the corner and was never hurt. Just seemed fishy. They called the fight when Cotto is usually most vulnerable and was in full retreat.

            margarito couldnt see before the fight and couldnt see after, and still ended up in the exact same point as the first fight: on his way to breaking down cotto.

            cotto had that same look on his face.

            the triple uppercuts were landing, he was getting pushed back

            ny officials at ringside saw it and conveniently ended it. no doubt in my mind

              I don't see the logic with the extreme options.

              From a professional point of view, they probably shouldn't have let the fight take place at all but they were coaxed (possibly bribed) by Arum to let the fight take place given the condition of Marg's eye. Why would a state athletic commission completely disregard the well-being of the eye given it's previous condition?

                Makes one little joke, then the rest of the video is mostly given both fighters their props. Yet the Cottards can't seem satisfied and talk shit after shit.

                  So you're willing to believe Arum gave out bribes but not that the fight was stopped to help Cotto?

                    It's entirely possible, but that's just not my opinion.

                    They were very hesitant in letting the fight take place because of Marg's eye so they they were trigger happy to stop the fight and avoid any further damage it sustained. Imagine if something bad did happen, it would be HUGE black eye to the NYSAC and lawsuits could have probably followed. Stopping the fight to protect Cotto just seems like a conspiracy theory.

                    And let's not pretend we're being objective either, I'm obviously a Cotto fan and you are a known Cotto detractor and Marg fan. We're going to have polarizing viewpoints on what happened that night.

                      at the eyebrow pluckers. Their hero got owned and couldn't even rematch Marg right away like a man, he run away to another weight class and wait for Marg to get beat down by Mosley and Pac (two of the biggest steroid users of our time). Plus Pac had to drain Marg and he put something on his gloves to ruin his eye. Puto is a joke.. .
