    I have Murray 2 down after 7.
    He started ok got better and has lost the last couple of rounds quite big, including a point deduction. TV has him 4 down. He's in a bad way.

    He's switch hitting now to protect himself a bit better......bit late for that.

    Rios is an absolute disgrace for not making weight.

    He'll win this fight but the title is vacated. He doesn't look in tip top shape but he is clearly bigger than Murray. It's cost him $20k. I don't think he'll be back at this weight.

    Murray stopped on his feet in the 11th. A good stoppage.

    I suppose I'll credit Rios for pulling it out despite draining himself yesterday. A real battering in the end. Rioes hits .....HARD.

    Round 6 is the first you could make a case for Margarito...
    I still gave it to Cotto

    Good to see Cotto get revenge over Margarito.

    Great result, I predicted a Cotto win with a possible late stoppage and I was not disappointed, just think how good Cotto could have been if Margarito hadn’t cheated in the first fight. That cheat almost destroyed his career but he’s back now and hopefully can keep improving in his next fights.

    Come on mate its well known that he cheated I mean look at the hand raps after the fight, how would they be cracked if their wasn’t some hardening agent put on them. And if his power was the same as the last fight then Cotto realistically would have had real problems taking his shots especially as the rounds went on. I no this is a simplified example but in most cases this is true.

    It isn't well known, it is widely suspected. There is a difference.

    He cheated against Mosley so he wouldnt have done it one time, the evidence is all there to see, just because the boxing board did prove it doesnt me he hasnt done it before

    He cheated against Mosley.
    He probably cheated against Cotto.

    Rios was meant to be weight drained and yet he still could bang like that. <yikes> Murray's face was a mess in the end.

    Something not right about that guy. I'm not accusing him or anything but that ain't right.
