@leon323 Mayorga was washed up too. Mayorga has been washed up for years, and its not like he is a good boxer anyways, he is a basic brawler.

to me this was not a good win for cotto because he was fighting a broken Margarito that was never going to be at 100% not like the first time they fought. Ricardo Mayorga was a better win for him
