Super Six
Hopkins vs Jones
Pacquiao vs Clottey
Mosley vs Mayweather
Remember Oscar, Margarito, MAB & Morales...
Boy have the times changed.
Looks like Izzy - Rafa IV may be happening but no major hype. JMM is gonna school Amir Khan't but the hype for that one seems to be missing. Angulo and Ortiz are still trying to repair their status as future super stars.
2012 is upon us...
The only thing Margarito has going for him is his ability to take a punch. I would compare him to Librado Andrade. They both have a solid chin but their boxing ability is mediocre at best. I'm not sure how long Margarito was using those hand wraps but he definetly wasn't experimenting with the idea against Mosley.
Because Paul is bad ass. Hes a throwback he does that in the 12th of every fight. he goes balls out.
I just think its crazy to think that was his fist time vs. Mosley when the wraps had old blood on them.
I can't take that I am sorry. That whole Paul Williams is a bad ass don't work. I don't care how much of a throwback you are. You're still human... if a dude who is a professional fighter has cement in his hands beating you over the head for 12 rounds you will not be standing let alone winning... Is cement, concrete, is a lethal weapon... That shit attempted murder... Honestly you give Malignaggi cement in his gloves you will see him stopping fighters... I can''t take that bad ass comment... I don't think that flies...
Nah, but it was the fight that made him decide to wear one in his next fight.
You probably right... And, again Burner and everybody else is probably right that he had it for Williams...
But, to your point let me play devils advocate...
So after Paul Williams he used the plaster. Which leaves 3 fights Golden Johnson KO1, Cintron KO 6, and Cotto KO 11...
Johnson is there so is fishy...
But, before Williams he fought Cintron and you telling that Margarito did not have plaster for the first Cintron fight since it started after Williams. So that means without plaster he KO Cintron one round earlier? He also Ko'd Andrew Lewis in 2 rounds while it took Mayorga who is heavy handed 5 or 6 rounds. He hit Lujan so hard that he tore his ear off... He KO'd Sergio Martinez... and, look at Antonio Diaz face... Margarito showed that kind of power before Williams...
Nut, if you look that was all Marg style... Daniel Santos a fighter Marg lost to was winning early and then Marg came on strong late... But, he lost that fight... Clottey the same thing... If you look at Marg old fights. You would see that Marg always started slow... And, also plaster hardens from sweat... Yet late in the fight especially the last rounds Paul outright beat Marg... Why in that last round, if Marg had it, did not have any effect on Paul?

I cant pin point when it begin. But when I look att he effects of it. How it hardens as your hands sweat. He started to get to Paul later in the fight.
I mean I dont know if he did. But I do know that wasnt his first time vs. mosley.

You sound like FLoyd Sr. LOL! "I don't have any evidence but I know he done took it."
You honestly think that was the 1st time Margacheato came into the ring with concrete in his gloves?
I think it could of been... It was well documented that Margarito really got big after the Cotto fight. He got heavy. He was suppose to fight in November of 2008 against Clottey in a rematch... But, Clottey could not get clear to fight cuz of an injury he suffered against Judah. Then he gets a fight with Mosley and now has to lose a lot of weight. Also I heard that it was his worse training camp ever. I read that he was getting his ass whooped by sparring partners. And, one more thing Marg is a big guy and before the official weigh-in they had a scale in his room and it was off by look 2lbs. So when he stepped on the scale they had in his room it read 149... So literally in 45minutes to an hour. Marg went and lost 2 lbs after drying out. 2lbs that he did not have to lose. So when he stepped up on the official weight-class he weight 145. Marg was hella trained... Like if you reached a limit and his was 147 and then you lose another 2lbs in an hour it kills your body... I can see where Marg team after all of that can look for some kind of edge...
Now that I answer your question. Can you answer mine? When do you believe Marg started loading his gloves?
What makes you think that? I mean what evidence did you see on that fight that made you think that?
I don't know if he did or didn't... So I am not saying you're wrong... But, I will play devil advocate...
Paul Williams got a early lead. In my score card won the first 6 rounds... Then Margarito came on strong. won the next 5 rounds. And, was landing some heavy blows on Williams. Yet Williams came strong and won the last round. So if Marg had concrete gloves I just don't see how didn't hurt Williams more or drop him... How did Williams still have the strength to win that last round?
And, if you believe he used against Williams. When do you believe he started using? Did he have it for the Clottey fight? I mean when did this begin?

If you ask me. I'll say yeah.

Looking forward to the Alfredo Angulo/Joel Julio match up on Apr 24.
Vasquez/Marquez IV on May 22.
JMM/Khan should be pretty interesting.
Arreola/Adamek looks promising.
Abner Mares/Yonnhy Perez on May 22.
Raul Garcia makes 5th defense of his IBF minweight title Mar 26.
Victor Ortiz looks like he's bouncing back.
Expect big things from Saul Alvarez in the future.
I agree. Its hard to beat a fighter with concrete in his gloves. Only man bad enough to do that was Paul Williams.
Marg had concrete gloves against Paul Williams?
prime margarito a few years ago beats floyd , oscar and pac.

Get off my d!ck homo. I know you were 1 of the main people pretending Margarito was a better fighter than Floyd & now all of you look like idiots. Stop being a prejudiced hater & you won't end up looking so stupid the rest of your life.
LOL...
What do you mean by that comment on that bold?
