I definitely don't think he should be allowed to fight again. But...like you said, he'd definitely need a few good big wins under his belt before he starts gaining any sort of confidence back. I mean before he was at least able to say this guy's got plaster of paris, now this was a normal guy moving up in weight. Or maybe he's not so normal, maybe Cotto good use the edge that he lost to one of the greatest fighters of all time? But as much as I like him, I can't keep making excuses for his losses. The Margarito fight is one thing, but the Pacquiao fight just proves that he needs to change something in his camp. That being said, he needs time off and needs to build himself up mentally.Anthony Karperishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09453132088388155685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3894240548016054696.post-62487309513375639622009-11-17T15:42:19.608-08:002009-11-17T15:42:19.608-08:00As much as I would love to see Margarito get a bea...As much as I would love to see Margarito get a beating in the ring for what he did, and who really knows how many times, I just think if boxing is to maintain any kind of credibility, there is no way this crook should ever get into a ring again. The only way to discourage this kind of thing is to punish extremely severely whenever it is found. <br /><br />As for how Cotto would do in such a fight, I suspect he would need at least a couple good wins to distance himself from both these beatings. Even a slight hesitation, if he thinks about it happening again, could be disastrous.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03306571368985677511noreply@blogger.com
