Oh my! Mad ups to Margarito.

[awdleyfuturehalloffamer]

Mayweather is dangerous because of his speed and defence. If Margarito can break cotto's defence then he will break mayweather's as well.

so with that logic, you're saying that Cotto's defense is better than Mayweathers..



enough with this heresy.

I'm saying cotto's defence is damn good. Tony handled cotto's defence and speed advantage and he will handle floyd's defence and speed advantage.

[JonesJrMayweather]

cotto was poorly conditioned for his own strategy....if he had truly trained for the pace and circling the ring as he did in the first round this would have been an easy night....at first i was thinking mayweather-corrales...but then cotto either lost focus or got tired...either way i feel bad that cotto lost esp after I gave him mad deserved props after he beat shane...but nevertheless floyd would not get tired against margarito and would be able to dodge and circle all night long...i still would rather see floyd-cotto or floyd-shane than to see pbf batter the stalking margarito for 12 rounds..

[LEGION]

I almost feel sorry for Danny. Poor guy probably had all sorts of great photoshop pics and clever videos just waiting to be loosed onto Margarito fans after a Cotto win Tough break Danny Maybe after a rematch.

Props to Cotto; a game guy who just couldn't get it done tonight. Anyone else would have fallen to the beating Cotto was dishing out.

[hit2win]

i think cotto wasnt good at that kind of boxing that he did...he usually dont circle around the whole ring that made him lose his stamina within the fight...IF cotto-margarito2 will happen...cotto must make EXTREME workout on his stamina that could make him sustain what hed done on first 2 rounds of the fight...if he can do that for 12 long rounds, then he could have chance...

Cotto's defense is damn good? Like when he wouldn't tie Tony up when Tony had him on the ropes and he wasn't throwing back? ... I agree that Cotto's defense is good when he isn't tired, but he doesn't have anything near the defensive capability of Mayweather. Mosley hit him with numerous right hands that would have never landed on MAyweahter partly becuase of his footwork, partly because of his speed, and partly becuase of his defensive ability in general. Mayweather is faster than Cotto(especially in footspeed which is the key point), better counter puncher, better defense(than maybe anybody ever in boxing), and he has better stamina.

Agreed. Mayweather is better than Cotto in those attributes you mentioned plus he has not shown clear weaknesses/flaws as Cotto does in all his fights.

Tying someone up technically isn't defense, it's supposed to be a foul. Cotto fights, almost never clinches, only when he's really hurt. Anyway blocking all those punches to your arms wears you out, PBF would have severe trouble with the Margarito from tonight. Running and holding is the only way he can win, cause there's no way he can hurt Margarito, and the only way he can control the distance is to hold till the ref breaks them then he can back up again until he's cornered. If the ref warned him for constant holding, it would be a long night for PBF.

[belakbox]

I don't see PBF beating the Margarito who showed up tonight. Either does he. That's why he didn't find Margarito to begin with and will and should stay retired.

Props to Margarito for the excellent conditioning and cast iron head.

Terrible logic, because Floyd's speed and defense advantage is ten times what Cotto's is.

[Phil]

think its funny how people think Cotto's stamina let him down, Margarito fought the right fight and ripped into Cotto's body right from the bell, he was getting countered well but really hammered the wind out of Cotto, then busting his nose was a bonus. man he walked through bombs from Cotto great fight all round. weather Margarito beats Floyd or not remains to be seen, but the fact remains Floyd ducked him and took easier options

[WelshDevilRob]

Great result by Margarito he grinded Cotto down.
