    Maybe it's just me, but I didn't see Cintron landing too many hard shots on Margarito. He landed some shots, but for the most part nothing really stood out as being a "bomb."

      I think you need to watch the fight once again, Cintron landed some pretty clean shot's that would have normaly gotten the win for him against most fighters.

      That's why I think it would be such a good fight style wise with Cotto and Margarito. Both are ****ers and both can hit pretty hard. I would give the edge in power to Cotto and the edge in chin to Margarito. I think it would be a great fight to watch, reguardless who wins.

        But damm, i watched Magarito vs Cintron and i came to one conclusion. Even after bagging out Margarito nut huggers for the last few months and being rather vicious on there. Im here to admit this.

        Margarito is the real deal. His power is impressive. And his speed is okay to good. I think he will actually stop Cotto and he could cause Floyd a dew problems. But i still expect Floyd to win of course.
        I don't think you even had to watch any of his fights to realize this. When a man is turning down a career high payday of $8 million not to fight Margarito, that is when you know he's the real deal.

          When? I have the fight and have watched it plenty of times, but never once in that fight did I see anything in that fight that made me go "Damn..that was a big punch."

            If you want to talk about an out of this world haymaker then NO but if you watch Cintron landed some solid punches that IMO would have hurt and HAVE hurt most other fighters. Cintron actually looked good in the first 2 rounds and landed the more punches, it was Margarito's heart and determination that won that fight.

              I agree that Cintron won the first 2 rounds. Yet, those rounds were somewhat nondescript, especially the first. Still I didn't see any punches in that fight that would have "hurt most fighters," even that 3 punch combo he landed, which he didn't get much extention on. Cintron is a devastating puncher, no doubt. But that doesn't mean everything he throws is going to be a punishing shot. And I think what won Margarito that fight was half his heart, half Cintron's lack of.
