I always have thought that Cintron was a better fighter then Margarito. So my question is can Margarito beat Cintron without his weapons in a fair fight?
The thing is bro, that his style is one that lends itself to activity. If he's not fighting he's not in prime fighting form, his form.
He's a warrior, he needs to pressure and push the pace. I don't know if having over 1 year if not longer off will hurt him that bad.
Then again, some have even said the time off might be good for him as a fighter. Who knows but it will be tough IMO.
I agree, perhaps this one year layoff was a blessing in disguise for him, but I do agree if the tires still have some thread in them... ride them mofukkas till they pop, that pretty much sums up Tony's game. Nice to hear you are well homes.
Damn homie like that? I wouldn't go as far as saying he is done yet but those wars he's been to have really put a toll on him. Tony was prime around 04-06 IMO back when nobody on earth wanted to fight him. We still cannot write him off until he comes back, then we can make an assumption as to where he stands.

Marg is done IMO, he will never come back the same. In saying that, the victories he had over Cintron and even Cotto, those wraps (if they were loaded in those fights idk) must have had a magical effect on his chin.
People just dismiss the shots this guy absorbed and kept coming as if those wraps had anything to do with it.
I just think Marg is a much better fighter than Cintron.

you're quoting oscar right(sounded like him in his blog about Pacquiao's punches)? co-sign on the killer being the biggest crybaby bi.tch in the sport
Naw, I know Hoya said something similar against Pac too but this was a post interview of Cintron and said something along those lines, he basically just felt like he wanted to "bang" inside with Tony but his plan didn't work.
Funny how after the second fight Cintron was asked after the fight if Tony's punches really were that powerfull and he said no, that all he did was swarm him with volume punches and pressure. Two years later he claims he never felt such strong punches before in his career. This guy is the biggest crybaby bitch in the sport.

bwahahahahahaha.This is such a stupid question,it's like asking you could you beat up your daddy when he was in his prime,the answer is NO!!!!!
Margarito is Cintron's daddy.Cintron landed his greatest punches against Margarito and Margarito took them,looked up and smiled.
Cintron is a good fighter with alot of power...just not enough for a true Mexican warrior like Antonio Margarito.
What's funny is that Mexican fight fans can get away with words like "Mexican Warrior" or "Aztec Warrior" with no repurcussions. If African American fight fans use words like "African American style of boxing" or "Mandingo Warrior" then people get seriously offended and scream RACISM.
Go back into retirement you drunk fool. Cintron was never better than Margarito.
Secondly its "legitimately" not legitamely...put down the Pabst Blue Ribbon Fedor.
Thirdly, I don't know if you were sober for long enough to notice, but Margarito already beat Cintron 2x.
Both times within 6 rounds. Even if I was stupid enough to believe in the "plaster" bullshit, 6 rounds is not enough for the "plaster" to harden.
You are all morons.
agree with most of your points except the pbr one, its not that bad! lol
this is a funny thread
woulda shoulda coulda
we will never know
The one thing we do know for sure is that Cintron is a known cry baby and he has no I repeat NO heart
thats why he loses
If he had heart he would have gotten up and outboxed Tony
He is over rated and I think Margs would knock him out a third time
LMAO at that one poster comparing SSM use to margs
hahaah
dude those were undetectable at that time
there was not a test to prove that at that time
where as the wraps are suppose to be checked and someone from the other camp is suppose to witness the wrappings for every fight.
I always have thought that Cintron was a better fighter then Margarito. So my question is can Margarito beat Cintron without his weapons in a fair fight?
Probably, but Margarito has forfeited the right to prove it, imo.
People cheat all the time and don't get caught, and you can't for one second tell me all of a sudden this guy can't punch when he fights Mosley. This coming off a destruction of Cotto.
Don't make me laugh.
Could he have cheated in all those fights and not got caught? ****in a buddy, it definitely could have happened.
this is flawed
first off he didnt really land anything against Shane. Shane largely turned away from Tony for long stretches.
also Mosley has a great chin only being dropped once by the headbutt/uppercut combo of Vernon Forrest.
go ahead and laugh all you want but you have no proof only speculation
and again so you are saying all of the above I mentioned are inept at what they are supposed to do?
so then Capetillo must be some sly fox to have gotten away with it considering
NYSAC
NSAC
NJSAC
CSAC
all have approved the wraps with witnesses there
also
if this is indeed the case then are
Manny Steward
George Peterson
Jesse James Lejia (Golden Johnsons trainer)
idiots for overlooking this?
too many holes
you all can have your opinions but at least use something factual to fortify it

I also feel that Margarito cheated in their fights. I've never seen someone who looks like he doesn't hit hard at all make so much damage.
Notice, this is my opinion, and if you look at the facts, they point towards the fact that Margarito was always loading his gloves before fights.

What "facts"?
The fact that he was approved by every world class commission he's ever fought in front of?
And he didn't look like he hit hard huh?
Ask Golden Johnson how hard he hit. Ask all the guys he lit up in 6 rounds or less how hard he hit?
You can easily tell he hits hard by how much torque he gets on his shots. He throws the best uppercuts in the business. That dude is a power puncher.
You're talking about a proven cheater. Before you go around slinging crap about how hard he hits, you better consider the fact that HE GOT CAUGHT TRYING TO CHEAT with loaded gloves. You have no idea if he loaded them against Golden Johnson or anyone else for that matter. He could have been loading them his whole career. And if he does hit that hard, how come he didn't ever even phase Mosley without his weapons?
FYI, Golden Johnson is a joke. Even before he was shot Shane Mosley knocked him out. In fact, he's been knocked out FOUR times.
You're bragging about Margarito beating a guy who lost to third tier boxers and was old and fighting way above his real division.
The guy finally got caught and now you're butt hurt because he can't get a license.
if he has cheated for those fights then how long has he been doing this?
I told a bunch of you that the only welterweights who have lasted in the ring with Tony since 99 are
Williams- who prior to Martinez had never been down
Clottey- who prior to Cotto had never been hurt or down
Perez- never been stopped in his career
so some of you crybabies can sit there and whine about how this fighter would have won or that this fighter is ruined that but at least know about the subject matter
"his power became more after the _____ fight"
bwahahahaha GTFOH
