    Yep, I am going to have a big ass bet on Cotto. The slow ass neanderthal man is not beating Cotto.

    I mustve had a terrible angle from ringside for that bout because it appeared to me that cotto outboxed and outspeeded him in at least 9 or 10 rounds.

    I agree with this...somewhat. though cotto will definitely be able to hold his own on the inside with his more compact punches.

    Double has become the biggest retard here, qwerty like.

    Sure Double, Ndou beat Cotto up, and that's why Cotto won 9 rounds :lol:

    If you want to see someone being beaten up, watch Williams beat Marge up.

    See Marge actually lost that fight, where as Cotto beat Ndou.

    Do you understand the difference Double?

    In boxing, the aim is actually to win rounds and beat your opponent.

    If Marge can't be tamed, why was he tamed against Williams Double?

    Well, to be honest, I thought the Ndou fight was closer than 9-3 and if anybody was beaten up in the Williams-Margarito fight, it was Williams.

    Nonsense. Marge was dominated and TAMED for the majority of that fight, he only started fighting in the last few rounds.

    And Cotto won 8 rounds at worst.

    And the fact is, as of yet, nobody has beaten Cotto up.

    Cotto = Undefeated

    Marge = 5 losses and soon to be 6 if he fights Cotto.

    Williams landed more punches and won the fight, narrowly.

    But Margarito's punches clearly had more impact, and Williams was more hurt in the late rounds than Margarito ever was in the fight.

    The FACT REMAINS, Margarita Certainly WASN'T an "Untamed Beast" N the Williams Fight...

    It's ADMIRABLE that he Could Mount a Comeback to Make the Fight Close, but he MOST DEFINITELY Was TAMED by Paul Williams...

    And Joshua Clottey...

    And Daniel Santos....

    An "Untamed Beast" WOULDN'T have Been CLEARLY OUTWORKED N the 12th & DECIDING Round, the Way Margarita was vs. Williams...

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    No, a 'tamed beast' stops throwing punches, backpedals, or curls up into a shell,.. in that 12th and final round, Williams virtually ran.

    Yep. If you want to see an untamed beast, watch little Izzy in the 12th round of the 3rd marquez fight.

    THAT is an untamed beast, like Tripple said, he was like an escaped con. With skill though.

    Marge looked very tame to me. In fact ever since round 1 I was sort of wondering when he would ever become untamed and start fighting.

    And mitchell - I didn't think the fight was close at all. I thought williams won 8 or 9 rounds, I forget which.

    And bear in mind, I was rooting hard for Marge, because I was a williams doubter and laid some money on phoney burrito.

    It's a good thing I've never used the phrase "untamed beast" then.:lol:

    My point is even against Williams, Clottey and Santos - only one of whom I thought beat Margrito, and that by 2 points - Margarito wasn't an easy fight.

    The formula for beating Margarito is known and can certainly be replicated by other fighters, but you're going to have to take some punishment in order to get it done.

    Some fighters can take it and win, others can't.

    Some fighters don't want to take it to begin with.

    Sure you said the same thing about De la and Hatton.

    So if Floyd beats Cotto and Margarito which 2 guys would beat Floyd then?

    Hatton came up from 147 to fight a small 147lber who is a 140lber himself. Also you don know that Floyd started at 130 don't you Hanzy?

    Haha I just read this thread and realized at first I picked Cotto until I looked at the fight closer. Glad I didn't stick with that pick and bet him like I was going to. Instead I went just the opposite. :mj:
