    Because they're two completely different situations. However, you keep trying to make them out to be similar by misrepresenting what actually happened in both fights.

    Simply a difference in opinion Reg. Don't sweat it.

    I have been scanning threads in various boxing forums and I haven't encountered one thread that labels Cotto a quitter. So far all were unanimous in saying that he lost to a superior foe(superior chin). So I don't think this subject deserves merit. Maybe I am wrong...

    You are wrong. Saying that he quit and labeling him a quitter are two different things.

    At last, we agree on something Ron. Neither men should be said to have quit.

    No, they definitely aren't. To quit means you have quit, so you are in essence a quitter. If quitting doesn't make you a quitter, what the **** does?! If you are going to reply, don't bother Reg, find my thread called "An Open Letter To Each and Every Person Who Called Cotto A Quitter" and read it, it was discussed for about 16 pages by both sides of the argument, I'm not going to start it all off again on here.

    You are wrong. Find my thread "An Open Letter To Each and Every Person Who Called Cotto A Quitter", you will find many calling Cotto a quitter and going to bat to argue it. If you care about boxers and boxing, this subject does deserve merit.

    Yeah, Bayless had it all planned and whispered in Margarito's ears "When you have him down, make sure to throw and land 1 solid shot, I'll pretend I didn't see it". Margarito was basically letting his hands go, when you have a man hurt you just keep throwing and throwing without paying attention to no bell or whatever. Cotto went down and Bayless was a bit too far to seperate on time and Margarito threw and landed that punch, nothing new or strange if you know boxing.
