Cotto wins via 9th round TKO
The fight ends before the 10th begins as Referee Steve Smoger stops it on the advice of the ringside doctor. Cotto was on a way to an easy win.... Cotto was the fresher and the more active fighter ...This ending probably did not prove Margarito cheated the first time around. It proved more about the state of his health after the Manny P. fight. His right eye was injured in the fight against Manny P and he lost his vision in his right eye during this fight..
Margarito would not be the first fighter to lose his vision permanently. Sugar Ray Seals* reputedly boxed while mostly blind during his final few fights.
*Sugar Ray Seales ;Tacoma, WAMargarito would not be the first fighter to lose his vision permanently. Sugar Ray Seals* reputedly boxed while mostly blind during his final few fights.
