Did Cotto want his uncle to throw in the Towel?

I think it was quite clear he wanted out

 

he gave all he had&he had no more&he wanted his corner to know,its impossible to call him a quitter after a fight like that.

 

You can easily see Miguel winking at Evangelista at that point and during Bayless' count. Miguel's face was a mess and he was ducking and looking down, trapped at one corner ( when Manny said that the fight was over), then he retreated to the opposite corner and took a knee without taking a single punch. Miguel didn't want any more of that.

 

1 week after the fight on a puerto rican talk show he did say it was his decision for the fight to be stopped not his corner he said that he was still young and has plenty of years left in boxing he will be back he also said margarito was the better man that night,he prepared better he made no excuses and gave antonio his respect

 

Great another mexican to discredict Cottos heart good. They are the only one in the world to do that. thats why borikuas and mexicans can't get into a good converastion of boxing between each other. They are always hate.

 

Yes. When it was stopped, Cotto had lost the will to fight. When his uncle was coming on the steps, Cotto's expression remained blank regardless of how you interpret his head movement.

 

I reckon he did want the fight to stop. Whic was a very smart move, why should he be beaten to a pulp if he was never going to win anyway?
I think loads of fighters have done the same thing but by just staying down when they could easily get up. And most of them are probably right to stay down, if they have been knocked down more than once, are way behind on the cards and late in the fight. Whats the point?

 

i think thats the point:blood

 

The guy had nothing left,he looked at his girlfriend to see if she could throw up the way Hatton's girl did,nothing happened,he then looked at his uncle twice.

Cotto will never forget that night,he doesnt even want a rematch

 

he was already a pulp anywhere on jelly legs

 

yes I have once a guy has met a challenge and been beaten I move on I only go on and on about duckers and guys who run from Challenges, or are overhyped having fought no one. The day Calzaghe or Kessler lose you will never here the end of it. But to go on and on cause your a Boricua hater when you know Cotto had the balls to face Margo has obvious boxing skills, fought a competitive fight and lost is a load of ****!!!!

 

is it a coincidence that every thread like this is started by someone with "Mex" or "mexican" in their handle. Come on. We know margo owned cotto. Give it a ****ing rest. It what it is.

 

He looked at his corner and shook his head :-( Now the question is was he saying :-( at fighting on, or was he saying :-( dont stop it. We will never know for sure, but going from the fact that Cotto went down that last time without being hit I would have to say it was the first :-( meaning he didnt want to fight on

 

Lets be honest here, had Cotto won would you be giving it a rest:huh
