It wasn't the wraps, it was the EYE

    That's something that was completely overlooked in this fight. Pac insisted on 8oz gloves vs Margo and he had Pac pissing blood and so hurt after the fight he had to lay in the fetal position for a couple of days. A plasterless Margo is still capable of doing some damage.

    This is what I'm saying.

    10 oz gloves instead of 8 oz. Cottos face was marked up after this second fight....and it's cause Margarito had eye problems walking into the ring! People don't think having one eye will effect Margarito in the ring?


    Margarito landed some thudding body punches, and a few time in the middle round I was thinking "here it comes, repeat of the first"

    But Margarito was fighting with one eye so he couldn't finish it like the first fight. Cotto looked good, yeah, but he also looked good in the first fight before Margarito asserted his will over him.

    Margarito always fights coming forward so it looks like he asserting himself over everyone. Last round Margarito was getting hit was some monster punches and Cotto was pushing him back to the ropes and tying him up. Last 3 rounds woulve been more of the same maybe woulve broken that eye again.
