    I think Pavlik only got exposed as a bad at anything higher than 160... I don't think he loses to anyone at 160, AA has a punchers chance.

    None were really exposed. I thought Cotto had more heart. But he let himself fall into Margaritos trap. Pavlik just cant handle movement but I always knew that. Paulie, I always knew he was limited on offense and relies solely on movement rather than actual defense. All he does his jab and get low. You cant beat Hatton with a damned jab alone.

    Pavlik. He should stay at 160.

    Cotto wasn't exposed, he lost to a better boxer on the night. Boxers do lose you know, doesn't mean they are exposed.

    Whereas in Pavlik's case (and Khan's) they were over hyped, that's all. Something I think allot of knowledgable boxing fans already knew.

    Cotto and Pavlik are probbly going to be in the Hall of Fame. However they are both loses waiting to happen. Malignaggi is a good but not great boxer, in other words over ratted. None of them were realy exposed.

    Cotto was exposed. We seen that he wasn't this "COMPLETE BOXER" everyone was talking about.

    Pavlik... you guys seen what happened. He cant beat any fighter that has lateral movement.

    I dont consider Paulie being exposed because everyone knew he had little power.

    Not really. He actually boxed Margaritos ears off. He lost to a strong, motivated larger foe who eats punches like none other. Cotto showed mental weakness after he seen Margarito keep coming at him after he unloaded his arsenal. He should of went on the inside and used his short stature and faster hands to bust up Marg instead of fighting on the back foot. Just bad strategy for a fighter that does not have great speed or stamina.

    Cotto was not "exposed." He was beaten in a great fight in which he fought very well. It was never a sure thing he was going to win. Margarito was a top fighter.
