Why did Cotto get tatted up after losing to Margarito?

[punchr]

Why did Miguel Cotto go from having no tattoos to getting sleeved up and his neck tatted? This happened after the Puerto Rican champion lost to Antonio Margarito.

He wanted to be more masculine, more of a man. More tats = more of a man.

Possibly to cover his cutting scars

Why don't you ask him? I guess because he wanted to.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

word is he truned into a cutter after that fight. So most cutters get tats to cover it up./

People do strange things. Depression can affect anyone no matter how successful. He took a nasty beating and then the rumours of him being in the closet might have taken a toll. Getting tattooed and wearing pink crocs might have helped him in some way.

I can speak from experience, once you get inked you want more. Tats dont make you tuff bro.. i really think cotto just liked the first and said Fk it, keep going.
