    PRicans most of the time box a lot more, but anyways, great fight, Cotto got balls and Margo got tremendous will. lets just forget about Margo's loaded gloves for a second pls. Epic battle, and that hightlight video was the best ive ever seen!

    That was a great fight. This is what its all about, 2 boxers leaving everything they have in the ring.

    Did Margo cheat? Who knows. We call all say one thing or another, when the dust is settled, all we have to go on is what was on display in the ring, and that was an epic battle.

    It amazes me when people say Cotto has no heart. He took an unreal amount of punishment in that fight - so he took a knee, the guy had absolutely nothing left to give. Cotto won my respect in that fight. I would much rather see someone give their all until they have nothing left, than watch someone hug, hold and kiss their way through 12 rounds. How many other fighters have come through such adversity - not many!

    As for whether it was the same Margarito that faced Mosley, cleary it wasn't. Margo had nothing going into that fight, he had no plaster in his gloves, there were rumours of him struggling to make weight etc. I have my own theory on this - Cotto ruined him. It is often said that a fighter can age overnight following a beating like the one we saw Cotto take off Margo, but how much did Cotto take from Margo in that fight. Cotto isn't the only one that took a hell of a beating in that fight - Cotto landed some serious shots on Margo, an although Margo walked through them, I don't think he'll ever forget the night that he fought Cotto - I'd go as far to say as Margo is now a spent force, courtesy of Cotto.

    Do you people even watch boxing? Every fight that I've seen in which 2 warriors engage is comparable to how cotto looked. Just look at Vazquez against Marquez, two way smaller guys and they came out even worst than Cotto.

    it's alright to clinch once in a while. especially if you're dealing with a guy like margo... most other fighters would be pushing against margo clinching every 5 seconds under that kind of pressure rather than trading with him like cotto did. gotta hand it to him. he didn't fight very smart, but he ****in fought!

    Only way it ever gets settled, is if they fight again.

    All the should haves, maybes then will go away as it will be watched closely.

    I had a feeling it would be a Gorilla Productions vid. Those guys make some pretty sick highlight vids. This one is probably my favorite (not really a highlight vid, but about boxing today in general):
