Margarito Was A Disaster Without Plaster

Disciplined, accurate, busy but economical, good power…absolutely prime Cotto. A dissection. Margarito landed but simply did not hurt him without building materials in his fists. A good way to win. And, for the record, when a fighter has one eye completely closed, rules dictate that the fight must be stopped, regardless of the fans' desire to see the fight go on. Not always followed. But the rule. Comes from one of the top refs in the biz, who drank lots of my beer that evening. –TSS reader Mortcola offers expert analysis of the Cotto-Margarito rematch

YOU GUYS ROCK

Another stellar year from our Forum crew, the best in this known universe. Results for Reader of the Year are still being tabulated. In a moment of weakness, I hired CJ Ross to help with the computation and, well, it didn’t go well. Happy New Year to the best and brightest amateur scribes! –Editor Mike

(MGM) Grand Illusions

“Boxing is full of optical illusions. And I give Money May MAD props for doing a mix of Houdini and Marlin The Magician. Wow! Money May fought a club-fighting-like humbug in “The Cali Ghost.” And a hyped-up B fighter in Canelo. The promotions were grand to get eyeballs and easy impressionable minds behind those PPV screens. Because the live gates didn’t sell out.” –Radam isn’t sold on this being the year of Money May

War Torn But Still Dangerous

“It must be said that even a wounded, war torn Martinez is still a more dangerous threat than Canelo for Cotto. The powers that be must be expecting a phenomenal turnout.” —Brown Sugar says that Martinez is a tougher out for Cotto than Canelo
