Margarito Shot????

I think all the big, flush punches hes taken in fights against Cintron, Clottey, Williams, COTTO, and now with the huge punches with Mosley, have caught up with him. You can't take punches like that and still move on and upward. It starts to wear on you. Look at Muhammid Ali, Freddie Roach, Arturo Gatti (who used to go to war with people, but finally ended his career when he was KTFO by Gomez) or anyone who has just had a long career where they have been hit a lot. It hurts you over time. Margarito is 30 now, which isn't very old at all, but he has taken LOTS of devastating punches that would have knocked out almost any other fighter. I don't think he can take punches like that anymore, and I would say that his career will be downhill from here. But thats not to say he won't still be a competitive fighter for a few years (unless he did actually use plaster of paris and can't knock people out without that shit). If that's the case, yea he's done. I expect Cotto to win a rematch via knockout.

As seen in this video, Margarito is dead.

No I didn't really mean to address you. I was just saying in general and to the thread starter. If it seemed like it was to you then I apologize. No hard feelings. But I usually quote someone if I want to direct it strictly at them or else I'll just say it in general. It's just I don't understand how some think he's shot after one fight...if that's the case then anyone who loses by KO is shot. I don't believe that true though... Nah its cool mate i was just making sure that the folks of boxingscene knew it wasnt me lol I dont think his shot at all. Mosley fought to the gameplan and it paid off.. i do however believe if the allegations about the plaster is true thats gonna be the end for him...

After the Mosley fight is it down hill for Marg? Hes chin is cracked He looked in slow motion and weak againts him. I would not be surprice Cotto knocks him out in the rematch. Also he should stay away from 145 he looked a little drained no excuses I don't really get what this whole guys chin is cracked talk is. Who wouldn't have gotten stopped with Mosley dropping wind up hurting bombs square behind his ear and on his chin. He's a bit exposed but that's about it.

Bruv no disrespect theres 2 other posters besides myself who have posted and your saying some of you lot are the same people who argued mosley and hopkins were etc etc.. I can assure you and you can trail my posts if you want mate that i have never said anything along those lines. I didnt even say Marg was shot did i? I simply said the Mullet and the Loaded gloves allegations are his downfall No I didn't really mean to address you. I was just saying in general and to the thread starter.

Wow the majority of you people who claim a boxer is shot no absolutely nothing about boxing. Seriously, NSB is fun but it's getting a bit frustrating with some of you. A fighter loses his last match and he's shot? Am I the only Mosley fan who is not bashing Margarito. Give the guy a chance. Even though I believe he willingly used an illegal plastered padded gloves, it's not confirmed or proven. Some of you guys are the same people who argued Mosley and Hopkins were shot only to be proven wrong after they beat Pavlik and Margarito respectively. Not everyone who loses their last fight is shot...

it seems his going the Mayorga road after Mosley WOW...how have you been here since 04 with only around 160 posts?

No,Jose Luis Castillo is an example of shot.Margarito is still in his prime,he has lost before.Not this bad but the opponent was great and had arguably one of his best performances.

it seems his going the Mayorga road after Mosley

Yep, he's shot. So is Kelly Pavlik haha, seriously people need to stop using the word shot so frequently it's annoying. You can say his career might be all downhill from here, but he's certainly not shot. Co-sign.... Reason the threadstarter is getting red karma.

Natas maybe i shoud of used past prime. Do you think Cotto soft him up?

The loaded gloves and the dude's mullet are his downfall
