    Local Boxer Found Beaten Outside Tijuana Nightclub (March 22, 1998 from the Tijuana Times)

    Local up-and-coming boxer Antonio Margarito was celebrating his 20th birthday at La Quema de Rana- a Tijuana nightclub- this past weekend when he was involved in an altercation outside the club at around 1:30 in the morning. Sources say the young boxer got involved in a situation where he mistakenly attempted to take another man's wife home and was beaten savagely outside the club in retaliation when he attempted to leave. Margarito suffered extensive facial damage that required a fourteen hour surgery at Tijuana Regional to repair. Titanium ridges had to be used in lieu of the shattered brow ridges that were too damaged to repair. The metal plates will allow him to maintain the structure of his face and, hopefully, continue in the sport. The Mexican boxing commission has yet to rule on whether or not the Titanium alloys will prevent Margarito from being cleared to fight.



    Seems that this is no joking matter, guys. Laugh all you want...this thread is plain tasteless.
    Cotto would have KO'd a pre-op Margarito. NO question.

      I heard the Cotto camp has some serious complaints about the damage to Cotto's hands from fighting the vigorous pace he had to maintain against the titanium plates. I mean, is it fair that he has to smack metal eyebrows for 11 rounds? There's a chance this frankenstein cyborg boxer we know was Margarito gets barred from fighting and Cotto gets his belt back when the WBA strips it from Antonio.

        Margs was sent back in time by Skynet to annihilate natural Welterweights.. P-dubb was not in the plans.

            Wbo, wba,wbc,ibf brass should convene!

            Personally I feel that they're should be an investigation and if necessary the FBI should be involved.
            If nothing is found the top prosthetic engineers from around the world should be called in to create temporary similar eyebrows for any of Margarito's opponents so that we even out the battle field...THIS IS PREPOSTEROUS! Black eye with large eyebrow to boxing!

                    Don't blame Margarito for being a mutant.

                    Been a fan of X-Men and that's precisely the reason I'm a fan of Margarito. Except that one of his weapons grow on his eyebrows. If it grew on his hands, he won't be boxing.
