    Yes, we all know Cintron has more one-punch knockout power than Cotto but after re-watching that fight several times, he seemed off balance when throwing the right hand due to Margarito's pressure. Margarito's punches are looping and Cotto is such a good counterpuncher that I wouldn't be surprised if he catches Margarito in the middle of a punch with a left hook and knocks him down ala Pinto. :deal

    I feel Margarito's chin is being overrated.

    For a guy that never has had hand injuries and isn't known for having injured his hand ... I doubt that happens Sumurai ....

    and Margarito's chin is overrated ... he hasn't been hit by an elitist ... he was hurt by Santos who to date is his toughest and most accomplished opponent.

    They are reaching for straws now, funny how they say that Cintron didnt have any balance when he threw those right hands:patsch get real early on when Cintron was fresh he was landing hard right hands and Tony walked through them and scored his own only to break down Cintron and knock him out.
    I think Cotto fans are getting nervous and they should be, they were not expecting the countdown series to put Cotto on blast for being a lil Mari Con, How about calling him Miguel Joto?:gayfight

    Cotto hasn't been down ... he's been hurt but every fighter goes through a point in there career where they get hurt.

    Margarito was on the verge of getting knocked out against Santos ... If it weren't for the cut ... Margarito wouldve been KO'd ... he was hurt from some mean left hands ... and before the fight was stopped ... Santos was setting into a groove and was going to finish him off.

    Only thing that Margarito was doing and its what he always does is come forward in straight lines.

    He has no head or shoulder movement ... his chin hasn't been tested ... he doesn't know how to fight going backwards ... all he does is throw alot of punches.

    He's slow compared to most elite welterweights ...

    His defense is suspect ...

    Try once, and it was more of a push-down after taking hard punches.

    So that means Berto has power because he stopped Estrada too?

    Cintron only fought 1 guy that won a title and the two times he fought him he got stopped.

    Cintron has no skill and poor balance ... his power was grossly overrated ...

    While you can say that Torres has power because he knocked guys out before and his power is evident when you see him fight.

    You can say Judah and Mosley have power because we've seen them do damage with their power punches ...
