    Default Margaritos Body??

    I noticed margarito was hurt 3 times from body shots.

    1. in the first round from an uppercut.

    2. in round 8 right before shane knocked him down he landed a great body shot right around the one minute mark.

    3. was a right to the body while he was on the ropes before he was stopped. he only threw a few punches after the body shot.

    so im thinking those body shots played a good part in breakin that chin. Maybe cotto should think about staying to the body if they fight again.

    He was also hurt badly early in his career and was dropped, with one body shot if i remember rightly.

    One thing I noticed at the weigh in was that Mosely looked a lot stronger in the body than margarito.

    That's what tends to happen when you get a shorter fighter who has been fighting at a higher weight against a taller fighter who has been fighting at a lighter weight.

    Antonio Margarito also fought at Jr Middleweight.

    Mosley would not of stopped Margarito had he not gone to the body.

    Mosleys bodywork throughout the fight took away Margarito's ability to take a punch as the fight wore on.

    Kill the body and the head will die.... Couldn't be more true now.

    The body was key,from the outset Mosley targeted it,took Tonys legs/any movement and we all know Margarito had as very limited head movement.....Mosleys rights were helping him move it plenty though when he had no where to go,ugh.Tonys been dropped hard from livershot very early in career.Against Cotto he tucked his elbows nicely and taxed Cotto with uppercuts when he stepped in to dig there.....Mosley was much stronger and sturdy inside.

    At the end of Margarito vs Cotto I said that Cotto should've worked the body a lot more. Even though Margarito protected his body throughout the fight, Cotto should've forced the issue and thrown more downstairs.

    Shane on the other hand worked the body and finished upstairs...

    a handful of odd times, Shane's been up there a while and presuamably because he has a good team working with him he hasn't lost much of the strength coming down.
