    It wasn't Cotto's chin...he wasn't knocked down....he took a knee!!!
    Cotto hit Margarito with everything and then some....throughout the
    fight Cotto practically ripped his head of his shoulders.
    ( the good thing about Margarito is he can take a hell of a punch-
    the bad thing is he will pay a price for it later in life...punchdrunk )

    What got Cotto is exhaustion...he had no more to throw.

    A rematch will definitely go in Cotto's favor.

    Remember Cotto gave him a boxing lesson the first 6 rounds and the
    rest of the rounds were close, with the exception of the 11th.

    Cotto will win in the rematch of which are in his plans within the next 2 fights.

    Mayweather is the only person I can say with absolute certainty is more than likely to beat him.

    Margo is like that big farmboy, with just basic boxing skills,
    out on the schoolyard.

    The question is not who can beat him, but who wants to
    get beat up trying.

    SSM is likely to old at this point but PBF and Williams easily give him a boxing lesson, DLH at 154 has a good shot, and Clottey has a good chance if he stays consistant.

    Out of this list -

    Williams(obviously), Mosely(competitive, maybe wide decision, Mosely is made of steel and Marg isn't tallying rounds on him) and perhaps Clottey in a rematch.

    Cotto has a chance in a rematch with a better gameplan.

    The sad part is people are going to go the opposite extreme with Marg once he gets schooled, there's never a balance.

    Clottey, Williams, and PBF all can beat Margarito.

    Williams can win an all out war which would be the most entertaining of the 3 match ups. Williams would out Margarito, Margarito as he did in their first fight.

    Clottey can win by weathering the Tijuana Tornado's offensive storm with his shell like defense. Also with his pin point punching in a pretty entertaining match up as he did for the 1st 4 rds of their 1st fight.

    PBF can win in a 12 round BOREFEST that would resemble the Baldomir fight with Floyd using every inch of the ring to out box Tony.

    People forget Margo is the champ and PBF would be the challenger.

    Gotta come and take the title from the Champ is the way I score it.

    PBF sprinting like he is in the Bejing Olympics ain't going to cut it.

    I voted Paul Williams, but also PBF, and any of the top competitors in the next two heavier weight classes.

    Has anyone heard Margs call out Williams? That what true champs do. they want to exact revenge on who beat them. Look at Lennox. Rahman beat him by KO and he went right after him and took him out a rd earlier than Rahman took him. Does anyone think Margs could beat Williams in a rematch???
