Need to say this because all of those threads about Cotto and Margarito.
I bet any boxer at 147 and below can throw a lot of punches a round and train hard to do so. What get boxers tired is mixing throwing punches(hard punches no just slapping) moving side to side and dodging punches at the same time really gets you tired. Most boxers do this that is why they train to throw precise punches and avoid to overthrow punches because they also have to move around the ring and doge punches for 10 to 12 rounds.
Boxers learn how to throw a punch hard ( the correct way) and a guy like Cotto, Margo etc know how to throw punches hard as hell. You all talking all this stuff about quiting and crap but let's get real here. Margarito did not move at all he just took it all like a freak that he is and kept throwing punches missing a lot of them while Cotto was landing at will with hard punches and combinations.
This thread is for everyone putting Cotto down. But the fact is if Margarito no matter what training he has if he wasn't for that freakish chin he has a lot of people including Mexicans wouldn't have an Idea who he is.
So yes Margarito was born lucky. Even Williams could have KO him with all those punches he landed but that crazy chin was holding on but lost that fight and almost lost that fight with Joshua Clottey. Because of that he is a fun guy to watch but If I where him knowing the pressure that chin can handle I would have train more in the skills dept and avoid loosing to guys who can't hurt me at all and KO their asses by improving the boxing abilities.
PS this is not a knock on Margarito I love watching the guy but you crazy fans need to get your facts straight.OH and bring on the bad rep
