;D
Both fought valiantly, very good fight.
Cotto actually boxed fantastically well, but the tactics of Margarito had him swimming in quicksand and he was drained of every opunce of energy.
Margarito really looked good, what a tough guy.
Great fight.
Was a good fight however the better man won, so congrats to Tony.
I have no doubt though that Cotto will come back better than ever:)
Sarcasm hey. I think he's finished. Margarita is just a straight ahead brawler and Cotto didnt look to hot in the fight.[/quote]
Cotto looked amazing.
He boxed superbly in the erally going![/QUOTE]
He may have bopxed great in the erally going, but its a twelve round fight and you can look loke a champ at the begining, but if you can't last the distance you're gonna look like a chump.

Cotto never looked like a chump.
He invested such physical effort and had been taxed by Margarito's subtle bodywork, so he was unable to continue.
It happened to Sugar Ray Robinson against Joey Maxim, was SRR a chump?

Fuck off he quit.
He fell over the second time he went down without getting hit.
And even if Margarito did hit him when he was down it was hardly as bad as Benn Barkely or Jones Griffin[/QUOTE]
The Jones Griffin one still annoys me to this day. there is no way he was Ko'd by that shot. Got what he deserved in the rematch!
Great fight great fighters Tony needs to do a number on Paul Williams now then perhaps a rematch with Miguel true warrior Cotto he took his lumps like a man.This were the best fight in a while i loved it.
Haha! Lol!
Thanks man! The forum was great. Gonna learn from you guys.;D
I'm surprise Margarito has ever loss a fight.
IS very easy to fight when you have a chin like that. he just train to throw punches at will with no technicality at all, until he can no more, because no one will ever hurt him.
Seanie ur full of shit dude, both put it on the line and Cotto showed awesome boxing ability early in the fight, and showed plenty of will, guts, and heart for the rest of the fight, the fight was a draw going into the 11th, stop downplaying the losers effort in order to cheapen Margarito's win
Nah, it was a good fight and Tony had him. It was a love tap anyway. I am glad it was not Joe Cortez up there. It was a clean fight, I hope no one decides to argue this rule and then come back 2 weeks later and disqualify Tony. Both fighters were pretty clean and Tony won. End of.
This is why boxing is more brutal than MMA imo...

I guess you are right, In MMA you take your likings and you are out of there in no time. Not as many repeated hard punches like in boxing.
Also in MMA you don't always have to win by knock out, you can make a man tap and that is not as bad as being knocked out.

I hate to say it but I like this gif
Cotto could have taken a dive and quit after that extra punch he took from Tony when he took the knee and walk out the ring undefeated. Many fighters have done that like Santana against Norris (twice, can you believe it?!) and so on.
The ref didn't jump in. It's not his fault that cotto was hesitant in putting his knees down. It looked like he faked to put a knee down then was about to get up. Margarito didn't know whether he was going to put the knee down so he threw until cotto did put that knee down. It's not margarito's fault cotto hesitated and jerked his knee up and down.
Cotto lost...what could've, should've, wish i would've doesn't matter. Any excuses take away from a great fight.
They are testing Margarito for use of steroids...
