    Default Will Cotto Be The Same

    I have seen the Marg/Cotto fight over 10 times and although Cotto was seemingly on his way to UD victory you can see Margarito literally steal his heart and beat the fighter out of him, that was as about as brutal of an ending as you will see, whether it was the polarizing images or the drama of the announcing or the magnitude of the ethnic boxing rivalry between Puerto Rico and Mexico.

    Cotto who already had a questionable chin, no doubt has a huge dent in it, and that dosent bode well against guys like Clottey, Williams, Berto, Cintron and even Margarito who IMO Cotto should avoid him like the plague or that will be the end of him for good...

    I know great fighters comeback from adversity but very few can comeback from a demolishen like that and regain even half of their former self..

    Good Luck to him going forward, I hate to see such a spectacular fighter and up on the scrap heap, like a Meldrick Taylor maybe even Jeff Lacy depending on how he looks this weekend.. Boxing is such an unforgiving sport

    He will never be the same mentally IMO, when someone beats you like that and takes your heart/pride like that. Its hurts any fighter real bad mentally, and that scar will always be there.

    And when he is in another tough fight which he will be, the Antonio Margarito fight will always be in the back of his mind.

    Trust me, I have an opinion on this.

    But I'll have to wait until I get home tonight to voice it.

    The bossman is lurking, so I have to watch it.

    I guess we'll soon see. I really really hope he can get over the KO loss but fighting Margarito so soon isn't exactly the best route to take to do so. I know people that need humbling or a challenge to bring out their absolute best and I hope Cotto is like that.

    If he doesn't recover, then we can all say no one can fully recover from something like that. But if does, it would just make me that much bigger of a fan.

    Will Cotto Be The Same? My answer is, I hope so..
