You mean "Plaster Man" Margarito?? Dude was a damn joke! Won most of his fights with that crap in his gloves. Since he got discovered he hasn't done shite since. And Cotto beat the shite out of him in the second fight without his Plaster bullshite. Cotto took a lot of punishment in that first fight from that cheating POS. Anyone would be shell shocked after a beating like that and having doubts about fighting again. Cotto was bleeding from abnormal places like from his eyes and all. That maniac inflicted severe damage on Cotto who had to recover from that. But he has revived his career under Freddie Roach and is a much different fighter now. He definitely ain't scared of a Quillen after going through that bullshite with Margarito.

Margarito was shot by then. And Pacquiao had nearly blinded him a year earlier. All Cotto did was beat a fighter who should have never been granted a boxing license.

Loaded gloves or not, the bottom line is Margarito beat the warrior out of him. Cotto hasn't been the same fighter since. Even against Pacquiao he just tried to survive and didn't even try to win after the 4th round.

That's hard to say because all he's done is beaten mediocre and washed up Delvin Rodriguez and old, legless Sergio Martinez. You have to remember that Cotto turned down fights against both Andy Lee and Canelo Alvarez. And supposedly the top fighter on Arum's list of opponents is Tim Bradley...who has no power and hasn't won a fight in 16 months. Like I said, Cotto is a damn joke now. The last time he fought anyone worth anything was Mayweather and Trout in 2012 and he lost both of those fights.
