Margarito has articial lens inserted into his eye.. Any eye specialist here?

[p4pking]

Back to the original post, is Margarito's eye more susceptible to breaking down than the average eye is since the operation? If Cotto constantly tags it could that affect Margarito's vision during the course of the fight?

Yes and yes, without being any kind of an expert in the slightest. Any significant scar tissue even will make the area much more vulnerable and likely to cut easily, having had a break on the orbital bone and that much swelling to the eye makes it very dangerous for Margarito imo. You can tell by looking at him that the eye and cheekbone are slightly off, it's definetly a target for Cotto and could be quite brutal to watch.

I wish he would not have received his licence. Resto got a life suspension, he did deserve at least 10 years, not only one.

As I have said in another post Cotto will aim to land on the eye as frequently as possible. Remember Larry Holmes went in against Holyfield with contact lenses and they got knocked out during the fight.

Thats true. I sparred wearing contact lenses once and a jab knocked them right out, painfully.

That eye will hopefully be a magnet for Cotto's left hook.

Absolutely...Margarito has said he's 100%.

People keep bringing up that resto and Margaritos are the same case but they are not. Margarito never got caught doing it in the ring he got caught before the fight there is a difference you know.

The difference is one of pure chance. If you shoot at somebody and miss, you ain't gonna get probation just because nobody got hurt.

[Mr140]

Yea but there is a difference between attempted and doing it and not saying he did not get off easy. But when you looking at it they are different cases plan in simple right or wrong.

"Artificial Lens" ?

I'm no specialist but I do know this has to do with his vision and not the retnia detachment he suffered against Pacquiao. Margarito has always had bad vision. Both my parents have had this done due to cataracts. I suspect he also had cataracts. My dad's retnia was is also detached but due to his old age of 97. They tried to help it heal with steriods.

[NUCLEAR BULL]

both these guys have lost atleast 35% of what they were before there first fight, they both cut and swell alot easier and havent the stamina to set the pace in there first epic battle...this is a fight only latino macho men would take at this stage in there boxing lives, this could be the last fight for both of them. Margarito is still bigger and stronger but his chin isnt as strong due to faded reflexs and same with cotto, cotto still has the better speed and skills...maybe this time Miguel can take advantage of tonys come forward style.

i'd like cotto to win
