Thats why I dont get the hype around Margarito. I like the dude and think he is a good fighter but I also think he is highly overrated on here and by the media. It seems that some have finally woke up about him and thats why they dont put him in the P4P contest at all but there's still a ton of hype and I dont get it.
People have been ripping Malignaggi over his last 2 fights but Cinton looked the exact same as Paulie but he could always save himself at the end with a KO because of his power. The problem is that the guys he was stopping were garbage fighters and you shouldve known that a guy like Margarito would own him. Ive been ripping Cintron on here for years.
I remember the Teddy Reid fight on here and I got ripped by alot of people. After that fight everyone was sweating Cintron and acting like he was so great. Then I made a few threads saying that Reid is the most shot fighter in the game right now and he came a inch away from stopping Cintron on multiple occasions. I said that if he had a life & death struggle with Reid then he is garbage. However, people still thought he would beat Margarito for some reason and when he got destroyed they act like they were surprised?
Then he fights guys like Estrada & Feliciano. 2 average guys and Feliciano is even less then that but they both gave him straight hell until he finished him off because of his power. Still, those are 2 light punching guys who actually came straight at him and overwhelmed him, yet some thought a big punching physically big guy like Margarito who is a class over the other 2 and can take a punch, would have trouble in the rematch? Its a joke. How can you rip Paulie but act like Cintron is so great. My point is not really about Paulie or Cintron but its about Margarito. He gets so much hype for destroying guys like Cintron & Johnson but they are nobodies who would never come close to beating a top guy. Cintron would straight get owned by Floyd, Cotto, Clottey, Williams, or even Shane if he has anything left.
Meanwhile Margarito is the same guy in that same time period who lost twice to a average guy like Santos, lost to Williams who was then straight owned by Quintana, and was given a beating by Clottey until he hurt his hand. This is the guy that everyone sweats? Why, because he KO Golden Johnson and the vastly overrated Cintron? I just dont get it. This is the guy that Floyd has to fight if he wants to be considered as a ATG? Ha Ha Ha. That is too funny. This is the guy who has to get rated over Floyd if he beats Cotto? Ha Ha Ha. I personaly think Cotto should destroy him if he has any kind of skill like people say. It should be like the Clottey fight except he should be able to do it for 12 rounds. The only thing that scares me about Cotto is he has never fought a big man yet so Im not sold on him either. Mosley is close but he's still not a huge guy.
However, if Margarito wins then I think thats more of a diss on Cotto then it is showing how great Margarito is because he flat out is not. People are only picking him over Floyd due to his size. They know that skill wise Floyd is 3 levels ahead of him. The fact is that people lover brawlers and always will and thats why they will always be so overrated. They much rather see that then a pure boxer but the boxer will always have a longer and much better career while the brawler will always have losses because there skill level is not there.
