    Today on El Nuevo Dia ....Cotto said that Margie and his trainers will be responsible from the commissions findings and that the commission took
    correct action.
    Does anyone else think that Cotto feels that Margies punches were not
    thrown harder in the mid rounds and up, but still seemed to hurt more as
    if the gloves were bricks?

    I think he is still being very civil about this developement, but he didn't sound too happy about it at all.

    i was watching with my dad, not an expert by any means - and he was incredulous at the fact that Margo was pulling his punches after all the hype around him depicted him as a hard hitting mo fo. it was strange how thay had no power - unlike margo to say the least.

    Cotto is very classy! I apologize to all the Cotto fans whom I told there fighter stopped...Margarito is a cheat and was probably using something in his gloves...Cotto will come back and show Tony the only reason he won there 1st fight is because he was at a HUGE advantage...I like Cotto by UD!

    Lampley said that there was no loud " thudding " sound as when he
    fought Cotto.

    Margarito without loaded gloves is a poor-man's Baldomir.

    go to youtube watch cotto vs. magarito after the bell and look at his hand wraps, he doesn't take them off like in mosley, plus his knuckes are huge
