Miguel Cotto vs. Antonio Margarito II

---

More than three years after their first fight in which Antonio Margarito may have wrapped his hands in plaster to score a late stoppage over him, WBA Welterweight Champion Miguel Cotto looks for payback. The bad blood boils when Referee Steve Smoger struggles to get the fighters to touch gloves before the fight; however, without the plaster, Margarito is unable to faze Cotto, who fights all bout the way he fought the first six rounds in 2008, easily out boxing and punching his foe. His occipital bone broken against Manny Pacquiao a year earlier, Margarito again suffers from his right eye swelling closed as early as the seventh round. After the ninth round, the ringside doctor advises Smoger to stop the fight, and Cotto stands and stares long at Margarito, having exacted his revenge.
