Margarito did it to cotto. Was fortunate that he didn't make a meal of it.

Absolutely. In fact had it happened in this day and age it probably would. It was a very high profile fight at the time. There were so many people being blamed too, but IMO the ref made the biggest mistakes and still I don't know what he could have been thinking.
