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

[Guest]

Not only that but Arum's top rank SPONSORS Kevin Iole of yahoo! sport, He has NO choice but to see it Margarito's (Arum way).

Iole has always been one of Margarito's harshest critics. What the hell are you talking about?

the only thing Clottey busted was his cherry for acting like such a *****

broken hand my ass

Thank you. Clottey was feeling Margarito's pressure and that's what made his hand hurt worse. Yet people still perpetuate the lie that it was broken.

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...

why does it matter what the press row thought? what did YOU think of the fight?
if those scores are making your judgment than stop watching boxing. I wouldn't care if 100 top boxing analysts had fighter A losing to fighter B. If I think fighter A won according to what I saw, than I will stick to what I believe no matter what.

That's true. Iole used to say that a Margarito-Gatti fight would be even.

I'd trust the opinions of unbiased writers who cover this sport for a living than a bunch of nuthuggers on a boxing forum...

That's the spirit. The Weebler will always believe that Hatton was winning easily on the cards against Mayweather before getting KTFO. To hell with the official score cards, analysts and press scores!

Unfortunately in the real world just because you believe something it doesn't necessarily make it so.

If any idiot actually thinks Margarito won 6 rounds they need to quit watching boxing. It was 8-4, EASY.

Scott, he wasn't even hitting Clottey clean let alone hitting him. He did nothing to Clottey. Margs face was damaged and lumped. Margs was rocked a few times. Margs pressure wasn't even effective. He landed some body shots and was the benefit of some outragious scoring. Do you think Clottey was faking the hand injury??? lol

If you saw this fight, which most of us doubt you did and are probably a band wagon fan, the fans all thought Margs lost. If you had a few fans who said Margs didn't lose, they would only say it was a draw. Nobody believes Margs won more rounds than Williams. No sane fans believes this.
