    No one is saying Margo is without skills, Spic. He does throw a wide variety of shots. Head, body... he's a whirlwind of punches when he gets going. But damn bro.... you gotta admit, he's either got concrete or stainless steel in that jaw. Cotto must've bounced hundreds of clean shots off that head and nothing happened. That's not taking anything away from Tony, just stating an obvious fact.

    Im with you on that fact TitoFan.But It just seems some are begrudging & negating Tonys ability to bring his offense to counter Cottos ,making it sound that the only reason He was victorious was because he takes a good shot.His body work was top notch as well as the defense...........yes defense of Tony in protecting his own body,but not so much the head I agree.I was very convinced,fan or not,that Cotto would do major damage to Margaritos body and going to the head would have small effect.

    I think Tony took a major gamble, and it paid off. Margo knew that Cotto would use his vaunted left hook to the body, so he protected it, giving up his face. He was basically saying: "I can take your head shots, but I ain't giving up the body." One of Cotto's post-fight comments in the local press was something to the effect that he had tried to go to the body, but wasn't able to do so effectively.
