the facts about margarito vs. daniel santos

[Mr. Ryan]

Margarito was coming on late, but he was rocked bad twice in the fight by some nice southpaw sharpshooting from Santos. Santos showed the blueprint on how to beat Margarito, which is to back him up because he doesn't shoot short punches well. He needs you to back straight up so that he gets room to let go of those long punches.

I have no problem with Santos getting the decision. The rounds he won he won more clearly. It was tight as heck and could've gone either way. Regardless, the style just showed how crude Margarito is.

all the real boxing fans know that the puerto rican judges robbed margarito. it was a close fight but margarito was coming on like he does in the championship rounds and the bias referee stopped the fight because he knew santos was on the verge of getting knocked out by a mexican. puerto ricans never want to lose to mexicans so they have to cheat this man to prevent it. margarito should have won the fight.

and anyway margarito showed he is a true warrior by going up in weight and going for an avoided champion southpaw like santos. there are other fighters who are cowards that step up in weight and fight bums. margarito is a true warrior. he will fight any man.

Pure an unadulterated plain and basic common sense.

i agree with your post. But Santos weighed about 170 something on fight night and the fight was at JM, with MArgarito fighing at 147, there arent to many WW's that can back him up. PW showed the blue print as well. Use your jab and use your leggs and when the going gets tuff (late in the fight), just dig deep ....

To those who run around this forum claiming Tony was never hurt, I suggest you watch this. For those of you who think Cotto has no chance in hell against Tony Margarito, I suggest you watch this video.

If you have a slow internet connection, I suggest you hit play twice and then PAUSE the video and let it buffer/load since it is a 17 minute video clip, I think this would make it much easier to watch, so there is no stoppage and then you can watch it with out interruption.

Peace.

This is a great example of what a truly limited fighter Margarito is.

LMAO at Margaritos Trainer getting desperate instructing him to Hit Santos in the Throat hahahaah

I am a Big Margarito fan...but he is only strong at 147 because he can fight smaller guys or drained guys. I think he should just stay at 147 as long as he can make weight.
Daniel Santos was stronger and tougher then margarito that night and Santos isnt really a top class fighter...I will be honest Margarito style if he goes to 154 or 160 against a guy like pavlik will get him ko in the early rounds cause those guys are stronger then him and hit hard as mules.

lol There's a reason why Santo's has never, and will never be put in to a fight as big as a Margarito fight aslong as he's a Welterweight. Because he's rediculously huge lol. Same thing for Williams, other then the 3 tall strong Welter's in Marg, Cintron, and Quintana, no other welterweight handlers will actually be ****** enough to take that fight.

I mean the only thing that's keeping fighters as big as Santos and Williams down at welterweight, is the fact that they wouldn't make it as Jr. Middleweights. They're not strong enough, they're just pestering big guys that are too thick to knock down with enough reach to keep you back, they can't knock anyone down or out, but at the same time they're just too thick to be moved.


Now Miguel can't land a heavy shot on Tony with leverage like Santo's can, So if Miguel hopes to knock down, let alone buzz Tony, I think it has to be with a body shot that lands on that dime. Or it's gonna be late in the fight. I'd think.
