Here's a video of Miguel Cotto two weeks later after his defeat to Margarito. Sorry guys it's in spanish... but after this interview Cotto has shown me how classy and humble he is... Not many boxers are like this... He has zero excuses and answered questions real honestly... He basically said he gas out and it was his decision to take the knee, not his side. He saw how is family was reacting and also health wise it was the best option for him in the long run, esp. since he's only 27 yrs old. It was just a bad night and hopefully the future would bring better days. He also denied all press release saying he didnt train properly, trouble with his training camp, and going out partying in Las Vegas and having a few drinks. He admits going out with his kids and fam., but nothing that affected his performance, it was just Margaritos night, no excuses. He would be back with the same training camp and health wise everything is good. Hopefully I translated as best as I can... Cotto though as young as he is has shown hes very humble and mature, some fighters should learn from this...:good http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbqtxrDqKic
yeah i know he'llb e back ..just another boxer with a loss no big deal .. this guy is far from hype his face healed quick
Seriously though i got so much respect for both guys and their class before and after the fight just adds to the respect, i wish Cotto and Margarito all the luck for their futures, class like this is rare in boxing..
I agree , it's great to see two guys like this, who don't have to talk ****. And give credit and respect to each other, boxing needs more guys like these two.
