There are many points to consider:
1) Garcia is really tough and has a good chin having never been stopped.
2) Garcia came in on fight night weighing 170lbs far heavier than Tony
3) Garcia was on a 14 fight winning streak so his confidence was flawless
4) Margarito is not a one punch KO artist even when he was at 147.
5) Margarito was coming off a 16 month layoff and was previously KOed badly so his confidence is not at the top plus add the ring rust issues
6) Margarito's corner wanted him to get in rounds because of the long 16 month layoff. Had he TKOed Garcia in 1-2 rounds that would not help him if he has to face Pacquiao next.
7) Garcia despite being slow of hand and feet can really punch hard and can take a lot of punishment so why take stupid risks just to stop him when his first fight back is a confidence builder and to shake off the ring rust?

I think he cheated in the Cotto fight, but having said that Garcia has a good chin.
If he fights Pac (looking more and more likely) they'll fight at 147 then we'll see if his power is there or not.
