Their face-off leading up to these episodes was the best face-off I think HBO has ever done, and this first part was very well done, it was excellent in fact. I still think that Margarito has no business ever boxing again for what he attempted to do to Shane Mosley and this episode does nothing to dissuade me from thinking this way.
Antonio Margarito is a cheater regardless of whether it was done in his fight with Cotto or not. I get really bad vibes from that guy like he has no scruples or something.
They are pretty bad tbh.
Even at fights, post interviews, the guy usually says half the things the fighter says.
There was also something Tony said about the whole "dying in the ring", on the face off, that I hated the translation for.
He said something like, "Lo dije muchas veces, que me bajen del ring en camilla".
Which was really, "I said it many times, to take me out of the ring on a stretcher".
Those guys get paid to much to jack stuff up. Gimme the dang job.
You do know that both Margarito and Cotto have plenty of tattoos right?
As do I
But I was referring to the boys in Pacquaio's 'clique' that all got the same meteor tattoo that Pac does, just because he says so
*Inb4postersmakefunofusforcrying*
Cotto showed raw emotion and his voice broke when talking about his father. Damn sad...
It's confusing to see both camps give contradictory sides as to whether or not there were observers from opposite camps observing the handwrapping. Tony's manager says there were people, Cotto's friend says there was nobody...
:S
I remember Eaner a few weeks back saying that he knows Tony's manager personally and that he's told him that there WERE people in the dressing room.
Cotto is definitely pissed. He is going to lay it all on the line...this is going to be a BAD ASS fight.
I'm pumped! I'm ready to go! Let's do it now!!!! :boxing:
Oooooooooooooooooh, Fantastic is pumped! THIS...is a sign that the episode was epic.
*Stamps with Mr. Fantastic's seal of approval*
About the hand wrapping, Marg's team has no credibility with having no one in the room. Not because of even him "being caught" with Mosley, its the fact that when Nazim went into the dressing room, Margarito already have one glove on. So them saying they "waited" for Cotto's guy but the next fight you don't?

He doesn't really need excuses for things he can't explain. I would imagine the "booger" remark to be a flippant one; that's not something he'd expect anyone to take seriously, although some appear to be doing. :lol1:
The lack of weight in the evidence against him has become more and more apparent over time. When I say weight, I'm referring to something that conclusively points to the man attempting to come into a fight with weapons that are potentially more injurious than one would expect a man to carry into a boxing match.
And the man a few posts above me makes a valid point; ofc HBO are going to slant their presentation of all this material for a desired dramatic effect.
I really enjoyed when he said margarito was not a man and that a dog was more of a men lol. Also wanted to say this was a great 24/7 and since this was a 2 part series it should have been a 1 hr long episode each that would have been epic. Margarito had no real explanation about the wraps and cotto was as real as he has always been cant wait till saturday to see more
You speak spanish, how close are the interpreters?

How is this not on topic?
the name of the topic is 24/7 Margo-Cotto starting tonight and he's talking about it
get off your high horse mod
for real dont get the ban bc he doesnt agree?
I asked the guy 3 times to stay on topic... His last shot at me you cant see because I deleted it... 3 warnings in a row... Just stay on topic its got nothing to do with anything else other than the topic, and he just couldnt stop.
Keep the posts about the subject... Taking shots at me for no reason will get you nowhere.
then dude shouldnt be talking about people looking ridiculous when your a fan of roy.
I can talk about whatever i wanna talk about as long as im talking about the topic at hand... So now im gonna tell you.. stay on topic or get out of the thread.
Of course because you wouldn't be able to take it.
But anyways, I've said this is one of the best 24-7s I've seen. Yes, Margarito did have some weak excuses but you could clearly see how HBO is seeing this as the bad/good guy sell.
Id take it and slap it back in your face.
Stay on topic, last time Im sayin it.
Marg looks ridiculous scrambling for weak ass excuses.
That was some realness. No dumb sh*t with folks talking with stacks of cashing lacking anything resembling class, or seeing buffoons tattoo stupid stuff on their forearms because they have nothing better to do with their life.

Boy just know you're lucky you're a mod or else I'd love to put you in your place.
You wouldnt do anything. Stay on topic or get out of the thread, kiddo.
