Cintron's Shortcomings are Margarito's Gains

[Scott9945]

That is a scary combination. The hardest chin EVER, equipped with pretty good punching power and the all-time compubox record for most punches thrown in a fight. I can now see why people were talking about avoidance when it comes to Margarito. He doesn't offer a lot financially or recognition-wise to casual fans, and fighting him would be a stressful night to say the least.

It's not like people are saying Margarito is unbeatable. That is already been proven to be untrue. But the one thing you can count on is that nobody will ever have an easy fight against him. You're going to take some punishment if you step in the ring with him, even if you are the #1 P4P fighter in the world.

Cintron moves his head about as much as a heavy bag, thus he gets hit like one. And whoever said Steward is not a good trainer I could not agree more. He treats it like they are going to a Sunday picnic when he should be at least truthfull to his fighter.

Tony deserves respect for the win even if it was completely expected cuz Cintron fought his ass off this time and was landin some shots that woulda killed a lot of other guys.

Maybe if Cintron would've thrown more punches he would've had a better showing. He just sat back too much and waited for Margarito to throw at him, and then try to duck, dodge, or block. If it were him throwing 100 punches a round, maybe the outcome would've been different.

Margarito is a volume puncher, but he doesn't like to throw when his opponent is throwing (unlike Cotto who will punch with you). I think Cintron didn't take advantage of this.
