Point 1) Margarito was coming off a years suspension
Point 2) The last significant fight he fought he got KO'd
Point 3) This will most probably be Margarito's last fight
So Pac beats a guy who got KO'd by Mosley and the boxing world goes crazy? I can understand boxing fans going crazy because it was a GOOD victory for him. But for boxing journalists like Doug Fisher and Dan Rafael to praise this victory as much as they have is pretty ridiculous.
Fact was, NONE of these so called journalists even picked Margarito to win in the first place. And somehow Doug Fisher believes the Margarito that came in on Saturday night was 'better equipped' than the one which fought Mosley? Lol
This is what frustrates me about these retarded boxing writers. They contradict themselves in so many different ways and show clear bias towards the fighters they like.
And this is not discrediting Pacquiao's victory on saturday night. It was a good win considering Marg outweighed him by 17 pounds. And Manny took the uppercut and the body shot really well. But to call this Pacquiao's greatest victory or to hype this win as much as they have is pretty absurd.
If the amount of credit you get after a fight is won is based on how many people picked your opponent to win, then Floyd would rarely get credit, because he's usually the imminent victor in popular opinion. Kind of a stupid concept.
I could say I think a guy is going to win, knowing something of his skill level, but if the manner in which he does is impressive, he'll still get all his deserved praise, Y'know?
