Most of Press Row Had Margarito Beating Williams in the First Fight...

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

Beautifully stated. 100% agree and I think Tony Margs is a really good fighter. Watch in the rematch its gonna be another close fight but I see Tony coming out on top and all these PW /Floyd nutt huggers are gonna say the same thing, well press row had williams winning, oh he hurt his hand, or my favorite waht fight were they watching PW clearly won and he is the stronger puncher
hahahaah
cant wait to see it next year

You don't think Margarito is a really good fighter?? You don't beat Cotto, Cintron (twice), Clottey and have a very close loss to PW and not be a really good fighter.

Please don't give me the "If he didn't have a great chin" argument because that's plain ******. If Mayweather wasn't really fast, if Oscar wasn't a really good boxer, if Mike Tyson wasn't really strong......ect ect ect.

Marg is a phenomenal fighter because boxing isn't just about points or technique, at least not the pro game. It's also about heart and desire and I don't think there's another fighter out there that has more of either of those than Antonio Margarito.

it was a close fight saying there was a clear winner is dumb, saying one guy got robbed is also just as dumb.

williams clearly won the fight. margarito gave away all the first and middle rounds. there is no debate williams won the fight.

Williams won fair and square. It was close but clear.

yep

lets end this thread with this above

does margarito have the heart or desire to avenge his loss against Williams???

you kidding me or you just playing dumb for the sake of ignoring that Clottey ran around like the ***** he is whining to everyone he could about his hurt lil hands?

yet not one word of his supposed injuries afterward

he's a *****

You didn't see the fight. You calling Clottey a ***** shows how much of a fanatic you are with your worthless opinion lol.

Dougie fisher and Steve Kim chearleads Latino fighters and hate on Black fighters.


I remember Steve Kim made an article called "Thank god for Mexican fighters"
He was taking shots at black fighters in a covert fashion.And i remember him making borderline racist (You could argue full blown racist) comments about Zab Judah.


Dougie Fisher did`nt even go to see Williams training camp for the Margarito fight in Puerto Rico.But he went to cover Margarito training camp for the Williams fight.

Every time a black fighter beats a big name or well known Latino fighter he always makes excuses for the Latino fighter.

Last week in his monday mail bag he said Margarito overtrained for the Williams fight.

Dougie went all the way to Japan to cover a Edwin Valero fight which is a (ten hour flight) but could`nt go to Puerto Rico to cover Williams training camp.

One time Andre ward got dropped in a fight and this guy wrote to him about it,Dougie replied by saying"Andre Ward might be the next big bust"When Cotto did his little dance after being hit by the super puncher Corly he talked about how Cotto showed a lot of heart.

And Dougie fisher is half black and half white.


Dougie and Steve Kim Critisized Roy Jones and Floyd for their level off oppositions but never criticized Hatton or Calzage who took a very long time to step up their level of opposition.

I wrote to Steve Kim about the borderline racist remarks he made about Zab in one of his articles.He replied to me by calling me a "Al Sharpton mini-me"

Steve Kim is a piece of trash. Nobody respects his posts except west coast fans. Good post.

This was a good post. Your last sentence is subjective, but a good post none the less. Margs is one heck of a fighter.

good thread well i actually agree that williams won the fight but some posters here use that fight to conclude that williams would somehow whoop margaritio again when he never whooped margarito to begin with. he won a great close fight that could have gotten either way despite the fact that margarito started very slow. im not gonna say margarito is guaranteed to win the rematch even if he were to start faster though like some moron williams fans are saying williams will win the rematch just because williams won the first fight actin like he dominated williams which just plain wasnt the case! this is a fight that can go either way and if you think otherswise you do not know much about either boxer!

[NORGARD4HUMNLIF]

An interesting article I dug up on Yahoo! Sports with press row scores for the fight. Doesn't sound to me like Williams dominated anyone that night...

all the real boxing fans know who really won that fight. it was a close fight but margarito put a beating on williams and should got the victory. no worse than a draw. theres no way i could see williams winning the fight with all his weak punches getting blocked.

I am Margarito fan but if you know how to score fights its hard to give Margarito more than 3 rounds.
