Why does Margarito seem to get a free pass for losing to Williams?

[Run]

Well, all I can say since you guys say that I have been "owned" is that this bum has to go through 3 warriors, Cintron, Quintana and ultimately Cotto, by the time he does this you and "Margarita" will be in my back pocket beside my wallet. Against Cintron he has a chance because he doesn't box but currently has the perfect guy in his corner teaching him that right now in Emmanuel Stewart. With Quintana he definetly needs to box and with Cotto, I won't even waist my time going there. Just remember that he also lost against Daniel Santos, a boxer, so he has troubles with technicians.....

oh he has a "chance" against Cintron? "3 other warriors".

LMFAO pinche pendejo mamon.

Plain and basic common sense. Margarito is a true warrior, so he took the Williams fight because he felt he was a better fighter than Cotto at the time.

no dude, come on - if he thought that then that would render margarito a ****en idiot if he ever thought that pwill was a better fighter than cotto.

the only reason he fought pwill was to keep his belt, which was noble, just didn't payoff. lets not skew the facts.

I agree, in no way was PW thought to be better then Cotto but he was considered a threat to the top WW's.... and his Mando.

Dude, are you serious? Paul Williams is a direct counter to Margarito's style. He's a southpaw who throws volume, but he was big enough to stay away from Margarito while still peppering him with shots. Many people felt, and still do right now, that Cotto is tailor made for Margarito. I'm not saying Williams is overall better than Cotto, but as far as the style match up he was a much tougher opponent for Margarito than Cotto.

Paul William's ribs are perfect for Cotto's style, he wouldn't last 5 rounds against him.

Seriously... this isn't a hate thread, but I'm just curious.

People always talk about having to take a few tune-ups and then beating a good contender to get back in a title shot position for most fighters, but for some reason, people think that Margarito gets to skip that whole thing.

It seem especially strange to me in his case for two reason.

1. He lost to Paul Williams, who was viewed as a special fighter, but now that Quintana showed that he has some huge flaws, that doesn't look like such a respectable loss IMO.

2. Welterweight is supposed to be the most stacked divison in boxing, however, they are just handing out title shots to fighters who are coming off losses... if the divison is so stacked, shouldn't there be a ton of guys who aren't coming off losses, who are more than good enough to get a title shot instead of Margarito?

Why does Margarito get a free pass? It certainly isn't because of a financial advantage that he has, so what is it?

I think a fight with Cintrion makes alot of sense from both camps. Smart move, and he deserves to fight a guy who he beat down and made cry regardless if he lost his last fight or not, e****ially when that guy is now a world champion.
However, I think the only people who believe he deserves a shot at a guy like Cotto or Mayweather are his diehard, delusional fans.

Problem is, those are the only people who care enough to make Margirito thread after Margarito thread...

Carlos Quintiana outboxed Paul Williams, Cotto would destroy him and Floyd would have a field day with him.

bro, now you're saying that margarito voluntarily took a harder, less paying fight instead of taking the easier, higher paying fight in cotto?

bow out papi, come on

Tony wanted to defend his belt and fight his mandatory. I mean seriously why would Margarito be afraid of Cotto? Cotto's style fits like a good ol' Cleto Reyes glove on Tony.
