    Those are stans though, not fans.

    I have no problem saying Margarito could potentially lose rematches against both Clottey and Williams. I just said the other day that Margarito won't be nothing much at 154.

    Some people just think a few nutty stans represent an entire segment of fans.

      This is for the babies who get mad at a valid statement. For some reason if someone questions Margarito they have to be a PBF fan. Wtf? Mayweather is cool but it has **** to do with Marg fans going overboard at times.

          He is like all other fighters, overrated by some underrated by others. He is good, but he only has 1 speed and one way of doing things, eventually that will cost him against a better more versitile fighter that does not let him get off or just runs away and outboxes him since he is terrible at cutting off the ring.

          He is fun to watch though and has earned his place, I would also be pretty suprised if Margarito lost either of his next 2 fights (Mosley and Cotto rematch, if he does win those fights then yes he will probably be very overrated though I reckon).

            How do you get over rated by continually beating quality opposition?


            Its not like hes fighting lower tier fighters and getting praise.

            Hes fighting the best of the division time after time.

              Well he already beat Cotto for one.

              Mosley, I just view as a good matchup for Margarito. Sure he needs to go in there and take care of business (and depending on what happeans it could be impressive).

              To me he should beat both guys, and if you should beat both guys what is truly impressive about that, other then taking care of your business (or the way in which it is done) and moving on to bigger and better things.

                I'll give him all the credit if he walks through Shane like some on here think.

                  I think ultimately the answer was an emphatic yes!!!

                  Crazy to see Marg curling up on the ropese in retreat.
