I don't know if anybody watched the whole video but his trainer and freinds were talking about Margarito being 5 pounds overweight and they started joking about the weight and the fines if he doesn't make weight. I have a feeling that if he doesn't get the fights he's looking for he may move up as soon as next year. This sparring was a light sparring, some hard exchanges but overall soft sparring. Nothing really gained from here, im surprised he's not working more on defense and jabing more. Looks like he is consitrating on timing, but he should also work on his boxing skills and cutting the ring on a fighter, but then again he probably does this but he didnt' practice this here. If i didn't know who Margarito was i would say he is going to get his ass kicked. I was surprised he could hit the damn, speed bag the whole round, he probably doesn't want to show his condition. I know some fighters hide their true form, looks Margarito is one of them, i know Morales has done this too and slacked off in training in front of the cameras. Either was a nice work out but not one that i expected to see.Comment
