    With all things considered, possible plaster, bad eye, weight, etc...

    I don't think we'll ever know.Too many second guesses.

    Yeah I think the whole handwrap contraversy is inconclusive, even though I think he used them.

    I'll play it safe and pick even, too many variables, like plaster, eye, decline, etc

    They're both well-earned wins.

    Cottos win has no real question marks attached to it, margarito and nysac (im sure arum had a lot to do with this though) said he was ok to fight, thats their decision and should in no way affect cottos victory and much less take credit away. Not to mention the revenge factor which was evidently shown in cottos post fight stare, make it all that much sweeter.

    I haven't seen the rematch yet, but Maragito grinded a man down till the point he broke him mentally and made him quit. That has to be taken into consideration here.

    Too many guesses but the only conclusion to me now after watching the second fight is..

    If both fighters were in their prime, Cotto would never beat Margarito

    Margaritos is better in that they were both at their peak but theirs still question marks over it and Cottos cleaned up in his win.

    i think margo's is the better, it was a better fight and neither had taken massive beatings at that point whereas both had taken two big beat downs by the time of the second fight

    Margarito's victory will always have an asterik next to it, ALWAYS. He is a shame for the true Mexican legends that have actually made their legacies in a legit way with blood and guts. Margarito is a true black eye to the sport.
