As usall I see a lot of hate regarding Margarito and im the one most of you call hatfull. Take a look in the mirror and look at your hatefull post.
After reading the thread of the round by round its clear 90 percent of you have not followed Margaritos career. Have not seen his past fights.
You guess were expecting Margarito to have Tyson power, sorry to disapoint but he don’t have that type of power, he has good power to ko any fighter but to a certian point. Clottey had his guard so high the whole fight that it was not easy landing a clean head punch at will, but Margarito landed many body shots on him and keep Clottey on defence and head shots also got through.
And lets be honest, Clottey wanted to quit, it was his corner that didn’t want the fight to be stopped by not responding to Clotteys request.
Clottey did good, but to say he won when he was on defence all night is ridicules. Clottey may have hurt his wrist, but so did Margarito and it was clearly seen on film that Margarito skinned his nuckle, but the haters who seen the fight wont mention this. I belive it was in the 4 or 5 round that Margarito put a beating on Clottey and in this round it is clearly visable that Margarito took the fight out of Clottey. Did Clottey win the first four rounds, no he didn’t.
And what did some of you newbies expect? Margarito is a slow starter, he started slow again Lujan and then dominated later. Many of you sound as if you have never even seen Margarito fight and were expecting Margarito to be technicly sound, to have super human ko power, to have the best foot work in boxing. Relax, Margarito works for his win, gets hit while winning a fight, has trouble with his opponets from time to time, after all it is a fight and he is fighting a live body. I think before this fight many of you talked out your ass about Margarito; describing him in this way or that way. Then when your expectations weren’t meet, you drown the guy. But this is cause you were really clueless how Margarito fights and your opinions were just that opinions. Oppinions on fight clips you’ve seen and not complete Margarito fights.
Will Margarito beat Floyd yes he will, at least I still belive this. 8 millions reasons tell me that Floyd saw somthing in Margarito that scares him, beside all the Margarito brings to the table. Im not talking bullshiting just telling the truth.
And I guess when Margarito gets the Williams fight, he’ll get respect for that win - yeah right, haters will continue to hate on Margarito. Margarito will just have to keep winning and at the end will be the “Last Man Standing.”
Margarito is just plain tough. I wouldn't say he's the last man standing yet. There's still unfinished business with Paul Williams. I think he was finally getting to Paul in the final rounds, but he, Margarito, started too late. With Margarito, if he don't blow you out in one round, he falls behind on point, while landing hurtful shot, then turns on the "engines" right around the second half and seperates the boys from the Margarito.
Please don't tell me you expected any less out of him... Just quit even responding to his useless threads.
I know that girl in your sig. She trains at Buddy McGirt's gym.
IF Margarito beats Paul Williams I'll give him some respect. I haven't seen this fight with Clottey so I won't speak on it.
HE DONT NEED YOUR RESPECT CAUSE HES GONNA TAKE ON JULY 26TH WHEN HE BEATS THE CRAP OUT OF COTTO AND WILLIAMS IS A PEICE OF CRAP QUINTANA BEAT HIM AFTER TONY SOFENED HIM UP...WILLIAMS WILL NEVER BE THE SAME THATS WHAT TONY DOES TO GUYS.THESE ARE JUST PLAIN FACTS.
I like Marg I dont know why so many have aproblem with him he did what he needed to do to be a contender just like most other fighters..
Williams, who has fought very soft opposition, beat Marg so Id say Marg needs to make a statement in his next few fights..or hes done.
Clottey whooped that ass like I predicted. That whole round Clottey was on defence, Margarito barely landed anythingn clean. De La Hoya would destroy Margarito . And anyone interested in that fight, expect it to be similar to Oscar and Mayorga.
Ferocity, how can you honestly think that Margarito is an elite fighter? His jab is slow and isn't sharp, he throws ZERO straight punches, has no defense at all and terrible footwork. I know you Mexicans drink a lot, but even if you were drunk you should have been able to see that he looked like shit last night. And before you criticize me for "never watching a Margarito fight" like you always seem to try doing to everyone who disagrees with you, I have watched him fight. I've been saying those exact same things for months. And I will still say exactly what I said before. ANYONE THAT KNOWS HOW TO BOX WILL EASILY BEAT HIM. Williams is not that good either (I've been saying that too), but Williams is going to embarrass him. And if Margarito gets his big fight against a guy like Cotto, Mosley or even Judah he will probably be taken out on a stretcher and never heard from again.
thumbs up................
PBF will school Margarito...he's too slow for PBF...
i think margarito only wants to fight PBF to get a better pay day...
MARGARITO=OVERRATED
Thats exactly right. That is why he's fighting scrubs until he can get a big payday. He would get mangled against top competition.

I've seen plenty of Margarito fights and that's how I know Mayweather would beat him like he beat Baldomir. You can bitch about Mayweather "running" or whatever, but the fact is he doesn't look like shit against guys people expect him to dominate, unlike Margarito.
Margarito was speaking English with no translator after the Lewis fight and I think after the Kyvelos fight too. He is a fake ass Mexican...
I remember the lewis fight, unless you talked to him yourself, he wasn't speaking english.
And you calling him a fake Mexican is funny as hell, cause you dont' know what the hell you are talking about. He was born in America, raised in Mexico, what makes him a fake Mexican....him living in Mexico? Your a totally newbie when it comes to Margrito. Im glad floyd is retiring, after all he's unbeatable so why shoule he have to prove it right?
you can't be serious, after watching that performance, it'd be a step down, not up.
So your admitting he was avoided?
All i got to say is after the Williams fight let the top fighters step up if they think they beat Margarito, step up to Margarito.
Go watch the interview after the Andrew Lewis fight or are you just a newbie to boxing and never saw that one?
And it's kind of sad that Margarito has looked worse considering Clottey is the best opponent Margarito has ever faced not named Daniel Santos...
Looked worse, like a running Mayweather? You never seen Margarito fight before so your expectations weren't meet.
And what about the lewis fight?
Pare, di natin kelangan ang mga posts na tulad nito.... :luvbed:
hey, mr. boxing-know-it-all, you had a case of amnesia or something? PBF did not accept MArg's challenge because he chose to fight the lineal champ (Baldomir)... how hard is that to understand?!? no one's afraid of Marg... he's gotta have all the sloppiness in the world... i'm sorry, but i think Marg's just an overhyped bum... :nonono:
Floyd waited forever to decide who he was going to fight lucky for him baldomier won. Floyd is still a bitch for not fighting Margarito. Fighters weren't willing to fight margarito before he offered floyd the money to fight him.
Nothing against u, but ur also a nuthugger. Ferocity is a Pac hater but ur also a Margarito hater.
Pare, di natin kelangan ang mga posts na tulad nito.... :luvbed:
True, floyd is getting more money to fight delahoya, but before delahoya is when a fight with margarito was offered. Floyd decided to turn down the money, becaues floyd was afraid to lose against Margarito.

you still believe that?
How much is Floyd getting paid against Dela Hoya? Money wise, PBF vs ODLH is more an attracative fight than PBF vs AG.

ewan. mas kupal ka d ba dineny mo na pinoy ka. nkakahiya.
This has nothing to do with Floyd Mayweather. It has everything to do with how Margarito looked last night against a top 15 welterweight to everyone who knows boxing. Margarito looked like a journeyman last night...
Yeah, Clottey had great defense last night. He had the same defense in the first four rounds and those are the rounds he was taking Margarito to school. He was countering effectively and he stunned Margarito at least 2 times. Margarito didn't buzz Clottey even once.
As far as Clottey still throwing the left hand, he did that on instinct. He is used to throwing the left hand whenever he sees the opportunity. If you had ever fought, you would know this. The difference was it had no power behind it. Clottey was still able to land some good shots in the later rounds on Margarito, but they had no effect because there was no power behind them. And when Clottey ran in the 10th round, why couldn't Margarito cut off the ring? He should take some notes from Cotto who cut off the ring beautifully against Quintana...
And one thing that is pissing me off is why is Margarito trying to act like a fake ass Mexican that only knows Spanish? He was born and raised in L.A. and he speaks perfect English, yet uses an interpreter like he doesn't understand. Margarito is a joke...
LOL, your a piece of dog shit. Seriously kid, you are too ignorant to know what the fuck you are talking about. Margarito was born in America, but he was raised in Mexico, and he don't know english. The border line, makes him and I, American, but we both have Mexican parents are blood is still pure Mexican. When have you heard him speak perfect english, i'd like to see the interview. And most Mexican fighters try to learn a little bit of english, i just don't know if Margarito knows any. You're too ignorant to talk about Margarito. Just stick to the hating Margarito.
Clottey said he "broke" his hand and you think he would still through it if it was borken, yeah right. His hands was just bruised from how he raised his guard up to block the punchs and Margarito would just tee off on him so he got bruised hands thanks to Margarito and that high guard he had. Clottey was on defence all night long instead of fighting he was on defence from the 1st round on.
Clottey ran in one round, talk shit it Clottey ran for 12 and Margarito didn't cut off the ring once in the 12 round. Nowhere to hide in that ring, you can only run for so long before you have to stop to throw a punch.
8 millions dollars is what Mayweather turned down. And keep in mind NEWBIES, Margarito has looked worse, last night he looked good against a tough opponet.
If Margarito was a jokester what does that tell you about floyd who turned down an 8 million dollar payday against Margarito and Winky who turned down a 4 million dollar pay day?
Go and look at the Winky and Quartey fight, if your a hater, that fight gives you a lot of room to hate on either fighter. Especially Winky who picked on an old fighter and where both showed their defence was lacking, they used each other as a punching bag, go and talk about how awal both looked.
