Would Cotto Have Still Given Up If...

[Tam Seddon]

Cotto did outstanding at the beggining of the fight and his boxing skills were outstanding. I just think he was tierd and annoyed with the fact that Margarito just kept coming. Cotto is powerful and Margaritos chin and determination was just a bit too much for him to take. He needs to show that he can bounce back from this loss. But Margarito looked physically a lot bigger than Cotto and that is very hard for a fighter to fight against.

The fight itself was outstanding, the best fight I have seen this year IMO. Margarito needs to move onto Williams IMO and tie things up with him. I think Cotto needs to get back into training, I hope this fight doesnt effect him because pretty much any other fighter at 147 would not be able to handle the cotto that fought for the first half of that fight.

I hope they meet again one day!

Good post. I agree, Cotto was dominating much of the fight, just completely gassed out. Whether it was bodywork, conditioning, broken nose, etc.. doesn't matter. He wasn't able to finish the fight, or his fight plan. Doesn't mean he couldn't, just that he didn't. I want to see a rematch also, it was a great fight and we need more fights like they put on.
