No, but to say Margarito is a bum who can't box is fucking ridiculous. learn some basic common sense will ya?
you stupid bloodrag-who the fukk said margarito is a bum?
edit - i see where that other poster said that margarito's a bum, not my words or sentiments - however you're a dumb fukk for coupling an entire people because of one guys comments. grow up and lets have adult discussion. you capable of that or not?
Quintana ran out of gas after like 4 rounds against Williams and Paul wasn't even throwing 100 punches a round. Carlos clearly doesn't like to be pressured yet doesn't have the stamina to get on his bike for more than half the fight so I think Margarito would do a number on him with his non-stop pressure and aggression especially as he slows down after a few rounds. In truth, Quintana did not look good against Williams it's just that Williams looked even worse and in the process shocked a lot of people who expected him to demolish Quintana and make him quit again like he did against Cotto. Cotto better not sleep on Gomez or else who knows what could happen.
You see, how can I respect someone like you with all that bullshit you just typed out of your ass? So Margarito has "no D, can't punch, and has no hand speed"? who are you trying to fool idiot? watch some boxing and learn before you come out here and start typing these nonsense.
fukker, you saying margarito has fast hands? you REALLY saying that?
I can't beleive all you stupid people, now all of the sudden Quintana is the new P4P King, fucking Boriquas I swear... The guy had a great fight against Zombie Williams but he wouldn't have chance against Tony, he will end in the canvas just like he did against his cousin Cotto. Go fuck yourself and use some plain and basic common sense.
Hey, you idiot nobody has claimed he's a P4P king. Even before the fight against Williams I had said he could beat anyone of the guys at WW not named Maywetaher, Cotto, or Mosley.
The one not using his common sense is you, can't you see the guy is a very good boxer with some pop in his punches and that Margarito sucks at anything that makes up a boxer good, he has no D, he can't punch, and has no hand speed.

you post like a 13 year old who's just started to bleed.
calm yourself down girl.
Lets look at the facts.....
Antonio Margarito has 5 notable losses, Paul Williams, Daniel Santos, Rodney Jones, Larry Dixon, Victor Lozoya. With the exception of Larry Dixon, what do all these fighters have in common???
They are all "SOUTHPAWS"!
Antonio Margarito, as bad ass as he is, has trouble with lefty's. Which says he will have his hands full with Carlos Quintana, a well established SPOUTHPAW. I gotta go with Quintana on this one. And it goes to the score cards, no way Indio KO's Margarito.
Quintana UD.
very good post.
a margarito / quintana match up would be good if margarito beats cintron.
what if margarito took out 2 pr's and then setup a match with cotto?
floyd who?
Seriously, I thought people had already realized how much of a bum Margarito is, the guy flat out sucks, he can't box, he can't punch(his power is waaaaay overraed around here), and he has some of the slowest hand speed in boxing.
I can't believe people still talk about these guy as if he meant anything in the WW division. Quintana would brutally beat him up on his way to a UD.

Quintana UD.
I can't help but to think that it'd look somewhat like Margarito's second bout with Santos. The obvious comparisons aside, I can see Quintana controlling early with hard power shots and good movement...Margarito turning the fight around later when the pressure gets to Carlos.
I know Carlos dug deep in the later stages of the Williams bout, but it'd be interesting to see if he could do the same against a significantly harder puncher in Margarito.
If I had a gun against my head I'd say Margarito by late stoppage.
That's why I see Margarito beating him. Becasue even against Williams there in the middle rounds Quintana was tiring, but since Williams punches are not too hard he was able to catch a second wind and finish strong. I think Marg's shot's would hurt more and Quintana would be worn down in the late rounds and be prone to a KO.
Quintana wins a decision. Margarito is slower than Williams (who had trouble hitting Quintana) and doesn't cut off the ring as well as Cotto (who Quintana was able to move effectively against for a while). Cotto destroyed him because he is a MUCH more accurate puncher than Margarito, especially to the body. Not to mention, he has much more power. Margarito couldn't inflict the damage Cotto did even if he hit Quintana. Also, he'd get dizzy as fuck trying to chase Quintana around the ring. Carlos outboxes him just like he did Williams, perhaps even easier.

Addison,
We actually agree here. I don't know about my boy Cotto though, I think Gomez will put a real good fight, I don't think Miguel stops him like everybody here says.
I know you have a particulate distaste for Cotto's style but what do you think of his opponent, do u think he's just another bum on his record?
I think Gomez has an excellent chance to win. I would bet on it.
He's durable, hungry as hell, and relentless. He comes to get it, and Cotto would be in for the most concerted effort of the life of Alfonso Gomez.
I see Quintana taking the early lead and winning the early rounds with his footwork and higher landing percentage. The thing is what round will Margarito start to kick it up. We saw Margarito clearly lose the early rounds against Clottey, Williams and Cintron.
He came back by KOing Cintron.
He came back against Clottey when Clottey hurt his hands and wasn't able to punch back. However he wasn't able to come back on Williams. He was already down too much.
I think Margarito will come on in the middle rounds when Quintana tires a bit but when Quintana finds his second wind he will do enough to split the late rounds and win a UD.
Even though Williams beat Marg and Quintana beat Williams. I would say Margarito would beat Quintana. I think Quintana could limit the amount of punches that Marg throws with his movement like he did last night. The difference I think though would be Margarito would go to the body more and his punches are a lot harder than Williams. So I think those punches would wear Quintana down and Margarito would finish him in the late rounds 10-12.
Margarito is very slow, and throws wide looping punches, not a good combination when facing a slick south paw boxer. He would keep Margarito off balance all night just like he did Williams. Even Cotto was frustrated for a bit, switching between orthodox and southpaw before he was able to cut off the ring, i just dont think Margarito is that versatile to do the same.
