I was just trying to imagine how negative you'd be if Cotto actually lost a round.

---

I have him winning every round, but the last two were close.

It's just frustrating watching him fight scared and use the same gameplan that got him knocked out last time.

I'm always more critical of fighters I like.

---

He may be figuring that it was the wraps and not the gameplan. Cotto duplicated the good first part of the last fight; have to see if Margarito can duplicate the good second part.

No excuses though, Cotto was still being a bitch.

Cotto fights this style more and more as his career goes on because he doesn't take punches well.

at 140-Cotto got dropped multiple times. Flash knockdowns but still he went down.

at 147 and now 154 he isn't a big guy and he doesn't have a world class chin. He has to box more and more.

I think Cotto after this fight should go back down to 147 (which I believe he could make comfortably). At least there he doesn't look so darn small.

6-2 Cotto.

Legs are holding up.

If Margarito wasn't such a cheating cunt, I would be a huge fan of his. Love his style and attitude.

That was a total boxing lesson

I don't see how Margarito can see out of that eye, a shame to end it like this though.

I would be biting the fuckers ear off if I was in Cotto's position.

Hey can someone plz PM me a good stream they are using.

I've been going off the ones from the hidden board, but they are screwing up big time during the main event here.

Yup.

Imagine how bad the eye would look if Cotto didn't hit like a girl.

It's great to watch Cotto hammer that eye.

Margarito is still in this fight.

This is getting brutal

This is getting stopped, now or later.

Terrible stoppage!!!!!!!

I don't know about this...

This is a joke WTF

Hmm, I actually feel sorry for Margarito.

I am inclined to agree, though that eyes is a mess.

Awful, terrible, lousy, horrible call.

I don't.

I like Cotto, but what a way to win.

I guess its a win, with the assist going to Pacquaio...:p

HBO pretty much saying that they feel this is proof that Margarito loaded his gloves vs. Cotto.

But he was still fighting competitively with it. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Great win for Cotto a total shut out

One more rematch, Cotto can't take any satisfaction in taking a win like that. Margarito won the last round, but fair play on Cotto not fading as quickly.

If I was Cotto I would walk across that ring and punch that eye a couple more times.

I'm glad Cotto won, but geeze.

This victory belongs to Pacquiao for fucking up that eye in November. This victory for Cotto is almost as meaningless as Trinidad's "victory" over De La Hoya.

Margarito wasn't doing anything effective. If it wasn't for way the first fight played out, people would have been calling for a stoppage a couple of rounds ago.

Cotto just fought a perfectly tactical fight. Never panicked, keep clocking on the left when he realized that Margarito couldn't see off his left eye and popped perfectly timed combos. Wow, one of his best performances in a very long time.

Miles WTF why the hell are you rooting for a cheater ? a guy who was willing to load his gloves. Permantely damage a fighter for his own gain, then has the nerve to come into the fight that smug ?

F*** Margarito he cheated in the in the 1st Cotto fight, and got his ass kicked and exposed again.

Fucking HBO, why didn't you show that stare down after the fight!?!

It belongs to Naazim Richardson.

Honestly Margo's older and took a beating from Pac but we all saw the shots he was landing in the first few rounds and thought Cotto might get ground down. And it didn't seem to affect him the same way.

I'm not saying. But, its not outlandish. The guy cheated before.

Apparentlyy norton was hiding in my hard drives closest and beat the shit outta McCaffe when he was installed.

I had more viruses than a Thai brothel. Fight over eh???

The evidence is circumstantial, but it's compelling.

Cotto seemed to know.
