Cotto on is first loss

[SigmaMu]

It still amazes me how no one is talking about the body work Margarito did, only one person mentioned it in this thread. Go to the gym, train for 1 year, get in the ring with a decent fighter and you will soon learn what a good body attack means. It saps you of everything, your strength, your speed, your reflexes, your punching power,your will to fight, they are all gone after a good and sustained body attack.

Margarito absolutely tore Cotto's body up in the early rounds. Forget the blood in the nose, it didn't have 1/10th the effect as the brutal assault to the body by Margarito. Some people will never get it. While the stupid announcers were oohing and ahhing at the head shots by Cotto, I was noting the absolute brilliant and effective assault to the body by Margarito in the first 5 rounds. It wasn't until the body work had decided the fight by the 6th or 7th round that Manny started to talk about it much at all.

Cotto took a beating, he did not have what it takes to hurt Margarito much and he couldn't protect his body at all. He was beaten before that final round. I called a couple rounds before that that he was going to have to quit. No shame in that, no shame at all. No one here, i doubt, has one clue what his body was going thru right then. He was on the verge of collapse and was thoroughly beaten and he knew it. He was no longer able to protect himself. Everyone can be made to quit if they take that beating to the body!!! Everyone!!!

I did not notice how effective Tony's body attack was until I began watching the video in slow motion while working on my video. It was a great body attack and Tony landed some massive shots, despite Tony's relentless body attack, you can't leave out some of those massive upper cuts Tony was landing on the inside and to make matters worse, Tony was throwing so many punches that he was catching Miguel in the neck, shoulders, arms, body and just about anywhere legal. As you said, it looked as though Miguel was done in many rounds but he did keep trying and he hung in there as long as his body permitted. The man who onws 8 gas stations in Puerto Rico, ran out of gas and had to close down his stores Tony is a gas guzzler

Yep Margo didn't felt the need to at least dodge 1 punch even if he was receiving a lot of them. he just throw throw throw until you get tired.
