A thought on last nights fight

AP982415y ago

Im a very forgiving person.but in the aftermath of the fight in a way i feel bad for margarito.no boxer should take any punishment like that.i respect him for only lasting all 12 rounds.but im a fond believer on what goes around comes around.only margarito can sit down and reflect on this. Lets just hope this guys career isnt completly ruined.aside that this might go as historys worse beating considering margarito had all advantages. And what the hell was vargas yelling in the back? he got crucified by trinidad and mosley planted a watermelon on his face

Are u serious a live opponent? so margarito was dead to you before the fight? we are talking abt the guy who had everything to his advantage.weight,reach,height and his energy coffee.he fought a welter weight in size.what boxing fan are you not to realize this? Skills pay the bills. Margarito has no boxing skills. You cant rely on physical build alone to win a fight. He has no head movement. A punching bag moves more than he does. Pac looked fast and sharp against Margarito but who wouldnt? especially when he came in at an inflated 165lbs. The guy was already slow but he came in even more sluggish on fight night. My point is the outcome was no shocker. Theres a reason manny was like a 5 or 6-1 underdog. One thing I agree with you on though is Tony's heart. You're right, the man got a ton of it.

I'd like to see Pacman fight a live opponent now,any live opponent will do,same for Floyd,each other will do it!!Both guys have done a masterful job of cherrypicking,I wish for the day that boxing fans would realize this!!

I give Marge props for the beating he took... He and Garcia also gave Manny his props in the end : "Manny is the best boxer in the world" Manny made him a PUTO for all his **** talking calling Manny puto on 24/7... Now only if another Roach fighter could get RIOS in the ring...

Margarito didnt deserve the fight or the privalige of fightin at all. Then we here he was taking some Hydroxycut **** that is illegal in pro boxing. He gets no sympathy from me. Just a quite acknowledgment of his heart and toughness. I hope he's through
