    I honestly want to batter anyone who criticises Cotto for "quitting". Then we'll see how ****ing brave they are. Childish ****s.

    Good post, Rocky! :hi:

    Who criticised him for quitting? I sure as hell didnt
    You want to batter someone for criticisng a man you dont know? I think you're getting too emotionally attached.

    I think you are the one who is emotionally attached mate. Or maybe he just decided to use them for the Mosley fight? Yes of course it s all coming to me now they felt the urge to use them against a man who stated after his poor performance against ricardo mayorga "I just cant do it with the young fighters anymore I'll see where I go from here" I'm with you Beniot the Mosley fight was clearly the first time he used them. I also believe Capitello when he sayd that he simply got there late and picked up a pad on the side. I mean it s not like you're the main event and you could ask HBO to wait 5 minutes while you wrap the fighters hands :patsch

    The point is its not a fact he cheated against Cotto.Its simply an opinion.If there is definitive proof that Margarito cheated in the fight then why isnt it ruled a NC? Why is it still a win on Margaritos record and a loss on Cottos?
    Does Resto still have the W over Collins? How about Toney against Ruiz? When you are proven to have cheated you dont get a win out of it.

    Just a question though seeing as you believe he cheated.When do you think he started using the loaded wraps?

    I reserve judgement on the Cotto Margarito "Did he use plaster" incident.

    Yes, he tried to use them for the Mosley fight. He was never caught using them for the Cotto fight, and a man's innocent until proven guilty...

    I think there's enough evidence for an against him using them in the Cotto fight, so hopefully the second fight bring's some closure

    I'm not saying there is definitive proof cos there isnt, but I find it extremely hard to believe you start using them against Shane "high 5" Mosley. When was the last time Mosley looked that good? I think with the exception of VargasX2 and last second KO of Mayorga you have to go all the way back to Adrian Stone to find his last KO!(I may be wrong but I think that is the case) This is what I'm saying I see people saying "well he never hurt Margarito" That maybe the case but without the sort of force coming back from Margarito Cotto can get off in 3's and 4's just like Old man high 5 did instead of 1's and 2's

    Yeah I know what you're saying.People have every right to believe he used them in other fights but I think its wrong when people talk about the Cotto fight as if its 100% factual he cheated.
    Kermit Cintron for instance says hes doesnt know if Margarito cheated against him.Now my guess is he believes he was cheated against but he obviously cant prove it.
    Cotto needs to believe he was cheated against because otherwise he has to know that he gave everything and couldnt win against Margarito.I just wonder what will happen if Margaritos punches have the same affect on Cotto on Saturday that they did in 2008.What if he suddenly realises the punches are the same? Hes banking on the plaster being in those gloves in 2008.I think he could be in for shock in all honesty.

    BTW Mosley was on fire that night.I think Marg could have been on PEDs and had loaded wraps and he still wouldnt have got near Shane:lol:

    The theory is the wrap's were an act of desperation. It's well noted after the Cotto win Margarito partrtaaay'd a little too hard, wasn't in the best shape and had a terrible training camp. But we'll never know unless somebody come's clean if they did cheat...

    Cotto was landing 3's and 4's on Margarito for the first 6 round's. Cotto can't hurt Antonio we know that for a fact, the only question mark is Margarito's power. Judging by some of the bodyshot's he hit Pacquiao with, i'd say he's still got power

    Also Cotto seems incapable of clinching.Soon as he slows down he wont do it and will allow Margarito to throw 100 punches a round with Cotto most probably against the ropes.

    Exactly the first 6. Mosley didnt look like stopping Margarito really until he dropped him. I cant have the power theory against Pacquiao, for me Manny never lost a round neither did he look in trouble

    Yeah Mosley did a brilliant job of holding onto Margarito and wrestling with him after unloading, Cotto just doesn't seem to have that physical edge in his closet.

    I tend not to use the Mosley fight as an example with Margarito, tbh' he went into that fight knowing whatever happened he was gonna' get arse ****ed by the Boxing Commission anyhow, and his head was everywhere but the ring

    The bodyshot he hit Pacquiao with in the 6th almost folded Manny like a deckchair
