    I had respect for both Cotto and Marg. I was going for cotto but it really was Margo's night. But in time I think, honestly, that Cotto will learn from this and become a better fighter. In the mean time , i'm curious to see if Margo takes a rematch with williams.

    Mex,

    From what I can recall you have always been pretty objective and respectful, even though you are big Margarito fan.

    You guys deserve to enjoy that huge win for Mexico and Margarito deserves all the praise and adoration he is receiving.

    We all know he has worked his ass off to get to this point.

    Coto was more of a pure type of boxer he was going after the toughest fights unlike Floyd

    Cotto put it all on the line that takes balls and Cotto will be back these types of fights cold realy make a boxer better I think he would realy give Floyd hell

    Margarito jsut needed that 1 shot and Cotto was man enough to give it to him

    Bronx,

    I agree with you 100% on the post. But I dont think it will change anything as long as we have certain elements on this board. Hopefully it will work itself out and all the racism will stop. As far as the fight went I look at it as a boxing fan, you know. Cotto lost fair and square, Margarito was the better man that night and end of story. Bring on the next fight you know. The rivarly between PR and Mexico is probably the biggest out there right now you know. :good


    PS...Mexchamp next time around Margarito will not be able to KO Cotto again trust me....:good

    Cotto straight up told Margo that he had to wait in line after the Mosley fight. The only reason this fight happened was because Cotto's promoter backed him into a corner. Cotto, despite saying he fights who his promoter puts in front of him, went against Top Rank and tried to fight Oscar. After that fight fell through, he had no choice but to fight Margo. I still give him props. However, let's not act like he really wanted this fight or that he wouldn't have avoided it if it were feaseable.

    I would love to see that too, it is the best fight that division.

    But Margarito is in the position to select who he will fight and It does not seem to be Williams. Not yet anyways, but Margo is proud and he will make this fight hopefully.

    I remember during negotiations it seemed like Cotto was trying to avoid him, I even put up a few threads on the subject. But he still steped into the ring with him, and took his ass whopping like a man, so we have to give him credit for that.

    I said that I still give him props. Despite the circumstances, he still took on a tough challenge and gave a good effort.

    You guys are already partially united in your hatred toward Paul Williams, so I don't see any problem between the Mexicans and Ricans.

    Except for the complete f*cking idiots trying to say Cotto didn't quit...if you feel like your fighter didn't quit, you are going by feelings when none are needed. It's a fact, he gave up, he felt he had his reasons...accept it.

    Nobody is perfect in this sport, so quit trying to pretend Cotto is a cut above where he is actually at.

    ...He's still a good fighter, but all of the Cotto Queens need to STFU.
