    Clear to Margarito. Margo by 3 rounds I had it.


    It was clear that Clottey become another fighter after incurring the injury.. spurring the whole notion we see today that people think of him loving to stay inactive in his defensive shell.

    That last statement is defo true, The stigma of Clottey going into his shell was born that night.
    (Many including myself, Have had that impression burned into their brain)

    I just want a good fight with no injuries & no H.Butt's for Cotto's sake...:!:
    (I reckon a butt from Clottey could end the show!)

    First of all, Margarito's hands move like molasses. That could largely be linked to the extra weight he carries in his gloves compared to other fighters. There is no doubt whatsoever that Margarito had loaded his gloves, and perhaps this is why his handspeed is like a train... moving slowly at first and picking up force.

    Agreed.

    Clottey has a big ****ing forehead, If I was Cotto I would watch out for that thing

    i don't think anyone can take Cotto's bodyshots. Clottey better keep those elbows down.

    The best Conditioned will win this fight.
    (Unless like I said before, A K.O. happens out of the blue)

    Cotto by UD as Clottey will spend alot of time covering up and allowing Cotto to score.

    Clottey CAN take Cotto's body shots, but for how long? eventually they will start taking their toll.
