Miguel Cotto: "I Will Return, It Was Margarito's Night"

I would think if Arum is smart, he'd set up a rematch in no more than 2 or 3 fights from now. We know that both of these guys aren't afraid to get in there with anybody, including each other again.
I think the difference next time will be Cotto's adjustments. He'll go to the body a lot more, because no matter how much of a chin and heart a guy has, enough body punishment will make someone tired. Miguel spent too much time running and slipping, and while he looked flawless for 6-7 rounds, it tired him out trying to break a guy's chin that's made of stone.
I kept waiting for Cotto's kidney bombs, but they never came. I knew he would eventually get tired before Margarito did when it wasn't happening. He looked like he could have continued, but the corner probably made the right decision.
Both of these guys would give Floyd absolute hell. He should have to fight them both, and Paul Williams before ever having any claim (historically) to the Welterweight Championship. That terd never fought the best in the division.

I watchin the fight right now as Im writin cause I recorded it I seen the fight probably like 4 times already the fight is a ****in classic cotto hit margo with everything power shot and he jus kept comin cotto showed so much skills in the ring and marg showed alot of determination in the fight they both showed so much heart marg gets all the credit in the world for what he did and cant take nothin from him he does deserve to be champ hope my man cotto can really bounce back he could beat anyone even marg it was just marg night and all the punches thrown and movement comin from cotto on top of that have marg hittin him and nose bleedin..mouth bleedin hard time breathin takes alot of energy so he loss doesnt mean that cotto cant beat him he jus lost on this night..the both of these guys can beat anyone in welter..cotto will be champ again and hopefully get a rematch as a champ against another champ in margo...when I was watchin the fight I felt like this..

Coto is a class act. This is how boxers should act when they lose.
Sometimes a loss isn't the worst thing in the world for a boxer. Sometimes boxers will get caught up trying to remain undefeated more than trying to prove themselves. In any case, Cotto will be back.

cotto is a warrior.
he fought like a lion last night, but was wasted due to tony's pressure.
that's why i respect miguel, for fighting the BEST out there.
floyd, just stay retired man, the boxing world will be fine without you.
