    Yea....I agree. I really like Marg and want to give him the benefit of the doubt but like you said. Cotto's face looked horrible after the fight. But in my honest opinion I felt the fight would go exactly the way it did. Cotto dominating early and fading late where Marg would begin to cut the ring off and land more and more by the mid rounds. I just wasn't expecting to see Cotto's face look like hamburger. I wouldn't blame Cotto for not wanting to fight Marg again after the ruling. I mean that is his life! And you gotta go with what is ruled by the outfit who is suppose to be looking out for the well being of the participants in the sport.

    I always thought that margarito would've still beaten cotto in that first fight but after the plaster crap, it makes you think if margarito had an advantage on any fight.

    Mab was dirty at times too. He got away with it a lot as well. I just feel low blows, rabbits punches, butts, bows ect... come with the fight game. Anything excessive is just that, but the fight game is dirty and you gotta expect it to be that way at times....whether intentional or not.

    It's the PR in him...lol Trust me, as a puertorican myself i can say it. He reminds me of jorge posada of yanks. He is cool but if there is a brawl, he is first one out of dugout.:lol:

    Where does this ignorant notion, that any negative comment (especially when true) are somehow about hate, come from...

    I have thought for over two years now that Miguel Cotto is a dirty fighter. If he is getting buzzed, he will hit his opponent in the balls like he is taking batting practice. Yes, Cotto is a dirty fighter.

    Everyone fights dirty. Mayweather likes to use the elbow a lot, Hopkins fights dirty, Clottey uses his head a lot, Barrera is a notorious dirty fighter. This is boxing/fighting not having a cup of ice cream with your opponent.

    Cotto has a rabid fan following, and to keep the conversation on gentleman level I just wanted to make it clear that I was not bashing Cotto, just pointing out something I noticed.
