On Antonio Margarito...

[Mr. Ryan]

not for nothing Mr ******** but that was wack. I mean damn dude you almost use it like some badge over others here. Damn I can do that to you as well I mean you never know who exactly posts behind these usernames now do you?

It was a weak move dude judging by your writing you seem better than that.

For the record, I never said being a writer puts me above anyone. I merely used it to suggest that I have enough interest in this sport that my opinions should be respected just as much as the next guy.

Anyways, I probably shouldn't be so sensitive to a poster with Margarito in his avatar in a thread that dares to claim he is a mortal.

I did that for 3 months while trying to find work in a new state

BTW, it's a nice place to meet hot chicks. You should look into that.

tell me you dont solely believe in the "he beat the man who beat the man" theory? If so does that make Robbie Peden the man?

Not solely, but I was illustrating that there are arguments to be made that Margarito is not a top 3 guy right now. If you rank fighters by what they potentially could do or what talents they possess, you could throw Zab Judah up there as well.

hmm sounded very above the others because I get credentialed to me but whatever.....

and what does my sig have to do anything about anything? LOL

oh Tony is mortal trust me I know. However, he toiled in anoniminty for so long that I don't feel bad one iota that he is finally getting the promotional push I have felt he has deserved for some time.

most feared man? nah no one knew him to fear him

high risk low reward? sounds better but again had he promoted the same way Beltran fighters were/are then maybe he would have had a spotlight a while ago

yup good point. People will always have something to say about a fighter. Funny how sensation ignored the fact margarito UD clottey. what other top 5 ww has done that??? *waits for the ****** excuses to start flying in There is no such thing as a perfect fighter. No fighter is flawless, closest to that would be floyd. and no cotto is not number 2. Cotto has his share of weakness as well. Sensations claims margarito has no defense and gets hit too much but his positives out weigh his weekness by a long shot!!!!! So in reality his so called weakness' really have no effect on him. Cotto has alot of flaws and im dying to see how cotto is going to hand margarito's pressure after he spent alot of rounds in the mosley fight backing up holding and running. There is a gif of cotto getting wobbled by gomez lmfao! he's knees buckeling and legs getting shakey for a split second. Cant wait to see how he reacts to a margarito punch. Reality is every fighter has a weekness or a few. margarito's weekness doesnt even affect his fights his positives overcome all his negatives. Tell me a fight margarito loss because of his weekness??? and you mention his 5 losses but forget to mention 3 of came before the age of 19. and the other one was a fight stopped cause of a cut against a middle weight in which he was winning on one card and losing by 1pt on another. The williams fight was actually a blessing in desguise!! believe it or not. He has upped his pressure and is starting fights strong now. Margarito know kills pw in a rematch and i dont know how you can deny that. Im going to bookmark this page and bump after the fight. And If margarito wins you have to give him all the credit in the world because to you guys cotto is god but in reality cotto is just another good fighter with his own set of weakness'.

I've heard it all now. Do you seriously believe Gomez hurt Cotto? If you do, I have a small insland I'd like to sell you.

go ahead

I mean getting blasted by Cotto, out hustled by the sloth Baldomir, and outboxed by my p4p #1 does wonders for his resume but murder on his L column

oh and getting a SD against old as dirt Pineda?

I never mentioned your sig. My post clearly states avatar, which I'm referring to another poster who I was speaking to in the post that you took offense to. His name escapes me right now, but he was the one who said something along the lines of how I should get educated about boxing before posting.

Hey, I can totally understand about a guy who never got his shot and sympathizing with someone. That said, I can only talk about what happened, not what could happen under such circumstances. The people who make him to be this world-beating mass murderer when he hadn't beaten anyone of note, that kinda gets to me a bit.
