Miguel Cotto Looses Over Margarito

Miguel Cotto just defeated Gomez and Antonio Margarito just defeated Kermit Cintron. The Miguel Cotto vs Antonio Margarito is scheduled to happen today. Again, I was shocked at how Cotto played against Margarito. Margarito was the standard fighter who never runs out with his opponent and is known for his aggressiveness and this time it payed off for him as he defeats Cotto in the WBA welterweight title fight where the championship belt at stake is Cott’s belt. The Miguel Cotto vs Antonio Margarito fight result is a different one but is not necessarily unusual. It happened so many times before.

Underdog in a 3:1 Prevails - See Why

Nobody would expect what just happened as Cotto gets the beating and pounding in the body and took its toll in the late round # 11. With odd of as much as a 3:1, Antonio Margarito managed to wind the fight and despite the fact that Cotto was estimated to prevail as the fight results near. The underdog won over the fight not just because Margarito is out for anything, he just want’s to prove what he is made of and he succeeded in showing all the boxing fans and afficionados. I never thought Margarito would have such devastating punches landing over Cottos head and mostly in the body that weakened the undefeated champion.

Mexican Body Punches Took Puerto Rican Cotto Out

This fight proved that indeed body punches have its say in any boxing fight. This is the same case as with Manny Pacquiao in his early career in boxing when I used to watch every fight he’s been seeing him get beaten by Rustico Torrecampo by virtue of the effectiveness of body punches. Pacquiao just like Cotto today over a loss suffered the same plight in body punches. Lucky though over Pacman that he was able to make his stomach even more stronger as he aged and look where he is now, the best pound for pound boxer ever in the world with the retirement of Pretty Boy Floyd Mayweather.

Who’s Next for Antonio Margarito

Now who do you think will be next for the underdog, Antonio Margarito? Will it be Oscar Dela Hoya vs Margarito? The Cotto vs Magarito fight results really did generate a lot of speculations and estimates who will be the next to fight in the welterweight division. One thing for sure, Cotto will not be fighting again for months and I bet when he decides to come back in the ring that he will be as furious in developing the strength of his body other than more on his boxing skills which is where he’s got a a lot of good technique in.
