I aint got a problem with Paul but if he stops division hopping maybe he'd force someone to fight him. He cudda just went to 154 and outboxed Sergio Martinez. Going from 160 to 147(if he does) doesn't sound good...

1. He wasn't running.
2. He did give angles, he isn't a master at giving angles but they were there.
3. I don't see how clinching has anything to do with boxing beautifully.
4. He used his jab well, and was landing some huge shots on Margarito behind the jab that Margarito just took flush, his head was swiveling around like a pinata.
2. He gave angles...poor ones at that until he got hit back.
3. I wouldnt say boxing beautifuly..moreso boxing smart...He didnt clinch once..I counted.
4. I dont think those shots were huge..he was throwing them while going backwards....I dont think he planted and went at Marg ONCE with any bad intentions behind it..like Shane did...All Cotto did was throw quick pretty combos and put his hands down and admired his work...all Marg did was smile and give Cotto a look as to say Im going to catch this little ****er any minute now..then BOOM....right to the body he did..and it was all she wrote.

A man's head doesn't get whipped around like a pinata unless he's getting hit by something with force, Margarito's head was whipping from side to side.
The body shots and the intense pressure ultimately did Cotto in (su****ions about plaster aside), but it shouldn't take away from Cotto's work in the early part of the fight, could he have fought better? Yes. Does it make it a bad performance? No.

All that back pedaling made him tired..he was gassing big time.

Originally posted by Fighting Champ View PostMargarito needed Plaster to win, but i do recognized Clottey could turn out to be a nightmare for cotto. And clottey should be as determine as ever to win. This is perhaps Clottey last big chance at a world title. I always believe Cotto might not be the same after his fight with Margarito. his last fight wasn't a real challenge for him, but this fight can be fatal for him, especially if he gets hurt.

I think it will be similar in a manner that it will be a good fight. I just don't think that Clottey and Margarito are similar in style. Margarito is more of a go forward fighter that will get hit to be able to throw his share of punches. Clottey is quicker and more defensive minded compared to Margarito.
