Cotto-Margarito: If the fight lasts less than 3 full rounds...

James Toneys fight ended in a TKO win for JT and that really was NC

 

He got hit..but he was not rocked. He did kept fighting on and did not even take a step back.

 

In the 1st and 7th rounds Cotto was moved to the ropes in both cases after he got caught with huge counter uppercuts and Judah was throwing flurries in stoppage attempt mode fashion. In the 2nd round Cotto did a lesser version of the Corley dance where his legs completely buckled and his body turned sideways as he danced. He was rocked repeatedly in that fight.

 

Should that scenario repeat, we'd have controversy and be all set for a rematch. Now...

The likely scenario for an early Margo ko would have Cotto not being able to move inside the jab and rapidly becoming overwhelmed by Margarito's workrate.

The converse would have Cotto being able to move inside the jab and catch Margarito with a liver shot.

 

Buzzed is getting slightly dinged to the point where you can barely tell the fighter was hurt. I think people are starting to adjust the "rocked" scale for Cotto because he's been damaged so many times. In the Torres and Corley fights Cotto was almost out, not just rocked. He was almost KTFO.

 

If this fight ends early, my guess it would be Margo's.

Seen couple of fights were Cotto wobbled within the first two rounds. THEN CAME THE LOW BLOWS. Margo is a pretty tall guy, so easy to hit down there. If he gets Cotto hurt and stay away from the low blow, I can see him taking it in the early rounds. Why not, so my vote go to Margot.

But it goes beyond that, I DO NOT KNOW.

 

LMFAO biggest punch landed by Judah in Round 1: Left Upper Cut about a minute and 20 seconds in.

Proceeding the uppercut: Cotto half clinched with Judah because they both took steps in and collided, Cotto threw a left hook to the body then to the head. Judah pushes off with shoulder and starts swinging wildly while Cotto bobs and weaves as well as counters. Cotto backs up to the ropes Judah follows him and Cotto attacks with hooks to the body as well as to the head. Cotto gets off the ropes and they square off.. Cotto throws more punches then first "low blow" occurs about 10 seconds after his "Rocked" moment in round 1.

P.S - Want to argue saying Cotto threw the low blow intentionally refer to lederman's statement with 20 seconds left in the round.

Biggest punch landed by Judah in Round 2: Straight left hand with 20 seconds left in round

Proceeding straight left hand: Let me start by saying only reason Cotto even stumbled that little bit was because he was currently stepping in and the punch pushed him back.... He wasn't even hurt so I'm not going to analyze it any further.

Margo.:smoke

 

if it ends early its most likely Margarito winning. Cotto breaks people down and KO's them late, at 147lbs he doesn't have that 1 punch KO in him. He did at 140 but not anymore. He won't KO Marg early unless its a vicious body shot.

 

What are you telling me for? Did you have to watch it?

Cotto got rocked. Hope you enjoyed that, fanboy.

 

Duhswag,

Cotto was surprised by Judah's handspeed but he wasn't rocked. Rocked is when one's momentarily unable to respond. Cotto landed some 4 solid bodyshots during that brief sequence which preceded the low blow. Not exactly the workrate of someone "rocked"...

 

LMFAO he got rocked? Whats your perception of being rocked? Cotto vs Corley = Rocked... Jones vs Griffin = Rocked... Judah vs Kosta = Rocked...

Cotto definitely wasn't rocked.. Compare those moments where he was in trouble against where he was hurt versus Torres. Your buggin' if you think they're even near the same thing.

I enjoyed proving you wrong

 

Exactly what I'm saying! Cotto wasn't rocked... This guy san w.e is crazy lol.

 

He's not crazy, he's just... differently clued...

 

Pffft , Ziggy strikes again. It will be good to see you gone. Couldn't stay out of my discussion, could you? Oh, he was momentarily unable to respond alright. Watch it yourself. Your new amendment to what it means to be rocked is cute, Ziggy. Did you think of that yourself? I think we can be sure of that... LOL.
