Too many Margarito nuthuggers still acting like Margarito has actually accomplished something in his career. The fact is Margarito is a chump and if you had to choose between Baldomir or Margarito, it's clear that Baldomir is the better, more accomplished fighter:
-Baldomir's best win was against Zab Judah. Judah is by far a better opponent than anyone Margarito has ever faced in his entire life. It's not even close. Margarito's best win was over an untested prospect, while Baldomir's was over the undisputed welterweight champion of the world.
-Until recently, Baldomir had been considered the true champion at welterweight. Margarito has never graduated past paper champion status and he didn't even beat a titleholder to win his strap.
-They had one common opponent, Joshua Clottey. Against Baldomir, it was a back and forth fight all the way through. Against Margarito, Clottey utterly dominated the opening rounds until suffering a hand injury that took away Clottey's power and his best punch. Many people believe Clottey would have won the fight easily if not for that injury. Baldomir fought a healthy Clottey for 11 rounds and in no way was he dominated like Margarito was at any point in that fight.
Margarito is just hype...
