Does Cotto lack that concentration to be great?

[Fenster]

I can't see Cotto winning a rematch against Margarito. Cotto fought great. But he couldn't hurt him. That was the problem. I don't see how that would be any different in the rematch. Not only that but if they fought again Margarito will have the same advantage over Cotto that he had over Cintron. I can hurt you. But you can't hurt me. It's in Cotto's best interest to stay away from Margarito.

But if he improves his stamina he could box like he was in the first 6 rounds for the whole fight.

I don't think it was a stamina issue. I think it's the pressure Margarito was putting him that became to much. People need to watch the fight understand that Cotto didn't decided to fight off the back foot. He didn't go the ropes by choice. Margarito forced him. I gave Cotto the first 5 rounds. But it was obvious from the second round that he couldn't hurt Margarito. But Margarito could. Cotto gassed out because of the pressure Margarito put on him. That won't change in the rematch. Cotto can't win cuz Cotto can't hurt him

Hmm.. as surprising as it is, and as much as I shouldn't - I agree.

That is exactly what I saw in the fight.
