Oddly enough...I don't see him as the best welter. I treally believe that he's just one of the strongest...strongest doesn't always equate to the best.
I also don't feel that a Williams rematch is in Margarito's best interest.
We shall see though.
Truly...I believe that Cotto was just to short for the height/reach/power of Margarito. You have to give the man his due for taking what he has & making it work.
Williams is cut from the same cloth as Margarito as far as advantages go.
There are just some things that one should realize in this game...a reach advantage is as big of an advantage as a power play. If you work off of systematically wearing down your opponant but can't reach him...what good is your power?
None.
All of your advantages are negated & you end up taking shot after shot after shot...just as valiantly as Cotto did...just as brutally as Margarito dished out.
Again...I gotta leave you with the note...both men (like them or not) came to win & in the end...both men made the bout what it was...boxing's best.
I was impressed with both men & won't forget this one for a bit.

Whoa!!! I can't believe he really pulled it off! I'm a Margarito fan, and I have to admit, I was doubting him for the first half of that fight. He just looked too slow and inaccurate and Cotto was taking him to school. Tony has got to be the toughest SOB in any division though. He is frigging unstoppable. He should change his nickname from the Tornado to the brick wall. Anyways, much respect to Cotto, he put on a great show and has nothing to be ashamed of. I actually felt bad for him, seeing him beat up like that.
PS- Floyd don't want no part of either one of these guys!

hmm.. See i didn't really think that Margarito used his height to his advantage.. they both had the same reach so that wasn't really an "advantage" to margarito.. it wasn't like he was keeping Cotto at the end of his jab.. Margarito did all his work on the inside and against the ropes..
The fight came down to the simple fact that Margarito is made of absolute steel, has heavy hands, and ridiculous stamina.. He simply traded with Cotto who was trying to outbox him (and did a good job at it) but eventually wore him down..

Cotto coming in at 5’ 7” with a 67” reach & dipping & diving while Margarito towered over him at 5’ 11” pushing in shots from a 73” maximum is an advantage.
4” makes a difference when you fight tall & your opponent constantly ducks & dives constantly & eats punches from 6” away…I hate it fellars…but Cotto’s face argues against the fact that 4” to 6” is a slam dunk…specially when the math don’t add up.

I missed the fight. But I can't wait for the replay. Good on Margarito for winning. I said it would be a battle of wills and it was. And Margarito just has an unbreakable will and Cotto has an unbelievable heart(just from reading wackos report)
So I cant wait for the replay.
Now we all get to see Mayweather vs Margarito.
