Did the eye save cotto?

It is Pugilist Sound and I am not new to boxing. There is nothing kid about me. I think I pretty much agreed with the two guys you say is fair and reasonable except they never said how long but do think he did it more than once. I am in agreement. Only difference is I would look back more into his career.
I am not naive.

NO is my answer. Cottos boxing skills and Margos ability to get punched in the face to easily was what won him the fight. The reason he could not see out of one eye is because of Cotto punches. If it was a headbut it would be a different story.
This unusually makes me think of MMA. When Brock lost to Frank Mir due to a leg lock he said it was a cheap victory. But could Brock have won the fight with a broken leg. It is a possibilty but highly unlikely. Cotto won because he was the better man on the night.
