"I felt fine. I only needed two more rounds to win. I told them how many numbers I had up. I knew from now on they were out to protect him because I was building momentum. I wasn't hurt. He never hurt me. This content is protected ," Margarito said.
I find it hard to believe that Margarito would be able to tell how many fingers was holding up with one eye covered. If he did anser the question correctly it would have had to been dumb luck
:deal if the man can count, he can fight. I've seen worse eyes go on to see the final bell. Cotto got saved. Straight up.
The ref in the Pacquiao fight felt the same way. He let it go and the end rsult was permanent damage to the eye that presented itself after just one clean shot to the eye
The Pacquiao fight was in Dallas. I repeat again- if this were in Vegas or Texas, Margarito see's the 12th, just long enough for Cotto to fold like the wallet that he is. If this was 20 years ago, with 15 rounds, take it to the bank 100 out of 100 fights Cotto is on his knees.
The very fact that theres a history of sever damage to Margarito eye, someone had to protect the fighter from himself. Theres is no doubt Margarito would have keep fighting but the final result would be the same one we're looking at right now. Cotto, was just to fast and way to slick for Margo.
Little tricks like your corner tapping your back with the answer 1-2-3. He could NOT see **** out of that eye... And the beatdown was coming. Round 9 Cotto turned up the heat and was hitting Tony with harder shots than round 7-8. The Doctor saved the cheat. This content is protected
I think it was pretty obvious in the last rounds he couldn't see a thing. Cotto just moved constantly to his left and Margo couldn't hit a thing. I can't understand anyone arguing that Margo was close to a KO. We couldn't even see him.
How the fck did this clown see through his eyelid when the doctor asked him how many fingers? Maybe he thought the Doctor was asking how much of Cotto's fist was up is ass so far in the 9th. This content is protected
I don't think it was a bad stoppage, but I do think Margarito would have had a good chance to win it if it continued. Margarito is Cotto's Daddy. Cotto looks like a little boy trying to beat up his big brother when he fights Tony.
