    Heres just another Big Mouth & nothing else.> As for the rematch Cotto couldn't beat an opponent that couldn't see out of one eye from round 2 which the ref & doctor knew. but doc didnt stop the fight till Cotto wilted & Marg was beating his chest at him. only then did he stop the fight. Not to save Tonys eye but to save Quitto Cotto quitting on his knees again

    This is one of the biggest loads of crap in boxing. I’m a bigger Cotto fan than a Wargarito fan, but let’s be honest, the rematch was going exactly the same way as the first one. Cotto starting strong and moving well, but in the second half of the fight Margaritos pressure started breaking Cotto down. By that ninth round, Cotto was barely engaging while Margo just kept coming.

    I’d sooner believe that Margo was using stamina-increasing peds rather than using loaded gloves.

    Is that you Floyd or your homosexual BFF Ellerbe? Styles make fights and two of your biggest ducks were Margarito and Williams, guys with gastanks and stylistically wrong for you, in this case respectively granite chinned pressure fighter, and a guy with an excellent boxer skillet and huge reach advantage.

    They would have been two of your toughest tests but you chose mid-tier fighters looking for the cash out.

    Boxing Pro 50 bouts
    2017-08-26 Conor McGregor debut
    W-TKO - a hype job UFC puncher in his first boxing fight
    2015-09-12 Andre Berto 30 3 0
    W-UD - mid-tier, unranked, well over the hill with gastank issues
    2015-05-02 Manny Pacquiao 57 5 2
    W-UD - we asked fir this fight 8 years earlier, you waited until he slowed down and you probably lost this fight on closer examination- casuals don't analyse
    2014-09-13 Marcos Maidana 35 4 0
    W-UD - did better than the first fight but A-side judging required over a very limited slugger
    2014-05-03 Marcos Maidana 35 3 0
    W-MD - you lost without ref / judges
    2013-09-14 Saul Alvarez 42 0 1
    W-MD - good performance and well selected match making against a green Canelo with significant catch weight stipulations
    2013-05-04 Robert Guerrero 31 1 1
    W-UD - the ghost, what a danger
    2012-05-05 Miguel Cotto 37 2 0
    W-UD - well past his prime and after getting his soul taken by Margarito. Avoided fighting Cotto at 140 where he was at his best and would have been very dangerous.
    2011-09-17 Victor Ortiz 29 2 2
    W-KO - last KO when Victor's hands were by his side and he was looking at the referee
    2010-05-01 Shane Mosley 46 5 0
    W-UD - SSM well past prime and had gastank issues but had you on ***** Street early in the fight. This should have happened 5 years earlier.
    2009-09-19 Juan Manuel Marquez 50 4 1
    W-UD - you brought him up from 135, then you exceeded the catchweight clause and paid a minuscule fine.
    2007-12-08 Ricky Hatton 43 0 0
    W-TKO - Fatton was best at 140. Looked like **** at 147 against Collazo so you fought him at 147.
    2007-05-05 Oscar De La Hoya 38 4 0
    W-SD - punch and hug for 12 irritating rounds to get an A-side decision against a completely past it ODLH. Compare this to what Pac did to Golden Girl.
    2006-11-04 Carlos Manuel
    Baldomir
    43 9 6
    W-UD - easiest fight for easiest belt.
    2006-04-08 Zab Judah 34 3 0
    W-UD - he had you hurt but you came vack well against a mentally weak fighter. Funny how you didn't fight Kostya Tszyu who koed Zab and Sharmba.
    2005-11-19 Sharmba Mitchell 56 4 0
    W-TKO - see above

    :llorona::llorona::llorona:
    Nothing but hate excuses and flat out lies used to discredit the best fighter of his era. You think you've done something you're not clever you could do this for any fighter in history that you don't like. What's even worse is you picked some of them to beat pbf lol! You're a hater pbf ruined an entire era of boxing for you and I love it!

    You can't draw up a scenario as to how a slow footed slow handed wide open bum with no jab beats the most complete fighter of the era. If pbf had no chin no stamina and defense you could say hey maybe margo could get to him but he has all of those and more.

    So smart-ass breakdown the fight tell me how margo is going to hit a prime pbf more than pbf hits him?? How is a margo going to win more rounds against pbf wins against him. Pbf isn't there to be hit he's not going to stand in front of that mummy and trade he will be first get in and out catching that bum with straight right hands hooks and counters move and force that mummy to reset. Margo isnt an educated pressure fighter who works behind a jab slips shots with head movement with subtle defense while cutting the ring closing the distance to get inside and work the body, hes not that guy. You're high if you think that plodder can cut the ring off on pbf the guy literally follows guys around the ring applying uneducated pressure with no jab no defense eating shots. Looking to land one punch to your two looking to wear you down with workrate size chin and stamina. Margo's workrate would drop to a career low as pbf moved on his ass all night long landing at will piling up points. So I'll ask you this, how does margo win? He can't out point pbf and he can't stop him either. This fight has pbf by clinic to anyone who knows boxing. Better fighters than margo couldn't land on pbf enough to win rounds but a no jab having wide open plodder does??? Stop the cap!

    Floyd, in the ring after the Hatton fight. “I’m not trying to fight no welterweights.” The next 2 in line were Margarito and Williams. Pretty convenient retirement I’d say considering they posed physical and stylistic matchup problems.

    Why did Margarito just stand there for 12 rounds against Pacquiao. Something was fishy about that fight.

    ROFL yet you & your idiot friends worship Mayweather who single handidly, with help both legal & illegal,from the state commission, Vegas boxing officials & USADA to destroy the sport of boxing as a combat sport today.
    Every fight Floyd had was in Vegas & every unbiased boxing fan said the same thing His opponent has to knock him out 3 times to get a split dec LOSS against him. Without doubt his real record would be 44-4 at best plus one N/C for his debacle with Pac eg IV gate. Their blatant corruption ruined the sport Ive loved & been involved in practically all my life Its considered parr with the WWE just ENTERTAINMENT !!!!
    If anything YOU really besmirch the name of the great champion Azumah Nelson by claiming to be a relative of his Now if you, PimpC & drenlou claimed to be Floyd's relatives that would be more believable
    Now just go away & play with your fellow Floyd fanatics & leave the real fight fans to enjoy this great boxing board

    He didn't, I was there ringside & Pac said after the fight he'd never been hit so hard as Tony hit him he said he was lucky to survive & win it. Then they took him to hospital because of his badly damaged ribs after he collapsed in pain
