Margarito's Chin Is Good But Is It Great?

[DLT]

Many people sweat his chin and probably rightfully so but he hasnt a 100% proved it to me yet. He just fought 2 of the biggest punchers in the game in Cotto & Cintron and walked through there shots like it was nothing "but" there are different kinds of punches. 9 times out of 10 a punch is not as hard when your going backwards or even just planted at times. Cotto & Cintron are huge punchers but they are both guys who have came forward in a 100% of there fights. There mostly fighting guys who are running or circling and then you can deliver the full blow. Its like your digging into them. When your going backwards like Margarito has made them then its not the same power. He's kind of punking them and taking some of the power out of there shots.

My point is that the only way you will ever be able to know if he has a dynamite chin is if there's a guy who is ever able to make him go back or who can atleast fight most of the fight without retreating at all. The guys at WW who could somewhat do this in the past were maybe a Mosley & Oscar but definatly guys like Forrest, Mayorga, Tito, and Quartay. If Margarito were ever able to fight them in there prime at WW then you could really judge his chin because he would definatly get there full power since I dont think he could make those guys go backwards all fight. Guys like them with there speed & power would meet him head on and some of them would try to even full out attack him

This is the only thing possible of stopping Margarito

His chin is granite. Pure granite. I don't like the guy at all but his chin is hard.

What I keep asking myself is why the hell when Cotto had so many chances togo the body that he instead went to the head where he should have known Marg would have taken it.

It is incredible. Cotto basically outboxed Marg and landed way more clean hard shots, but the strength of his chin made it irrelevant. It allowed him to do what few thought he could.

u got that right

well from the fight with cotto, he was getting hit with big shots but he just walked right through them and counter punched cotto into submission, yea he took hard punches none rocked him so yea he's got a solid chin.

I re watched the fight last night and i noticed Tony kept his elbows tucked in most of the night and just left his head open.

Amazing chin. It is what allows him to fight like he does.

[el malo]

Um, I disagree..

Look at the **** cintron was landing..
He landed the same shots on Walter Matthysse and that doode was out cold..
People like yourself discredit people.. Basically your not directly discrediting Tony, but your running around it..

Seriously, what does this guy have to do to show you hes got a solid beard?
Take a clean shot from a prime Tyson?
Your ******ed..
Now go make another MMay post like you always do
