That's understandable, when it's like 3 or 4 AM, i'd probably never watch fights that came on at that time until they showed the replay.

I wanted to watch this fight all year!!! But watched Chisora and then some porn to keep me awake and the Murray fight which was very good. Then it was about 5.30am and I nodded off.

I tend to record it and watch it next day for that very reason. Trouble is i then have to go around that day avoiding sports news and any friends or relatives who may have seen it, usually walking into a room saying "i don't want to know about the boxing" even when people clearly are not interested enough to have watched it. Today was even worse because i thought maybe Cotto might have just carried on smashing Margarito's eye after the bell at the end of round 12, and then have to be dragged off ,and then it would be all over the news and ...well you get the idea. Sometimes i don't think very rationally. Well done Miguel some classy work, the ability to change and evolve styles for a particular fight is a sign of a great boxer, and last night you were fantastic. Calm , measured, great movement and brilliant game plan. Margaritto...pity nobody dropped a piano on your head.

I had never seen this before, but someone sent it to me while we were watching the undercard of the Cotto fight. Now that I've seen it, I hate Margarito more than ever before. Too bad Cotto didn't get the chance to blow out Margarito's eye socket. Maybe the cheater should thank the ref and the doctor for saving him from further punishment. I myself wish they would've let it continue.

Sorry.... the video is in Spanish. But there's an interview with Freddie Roach in there, and enough visual aids to get the point across. I especially found interesting how many left uppercuts Margarito throws at Cotto INSISTENTLY during those last few rounds. It's like he KNEW he was hammering Cotto with a plaster sledgehammer.

F*cking criminal. I actually hope he DOES get to fight again... and this time, maybe he'll get retired permanently.

That's is why in the other thread I wished Cheatony Diablo fights James Kirkland next at either junior middle or at middle so he'll get sent to the morgue next. It's kinda funny though Margarito's worst ass whoopins was against guys naturally smaller than him.

Antonio Malignaggi is nothing without his power-wraps. He looked special-olympics in there at some points. Cotto was just Bappin! him to the face all night like a mean ghost.
