    Margarito should do the right thing and rematch Mosley

    After getting KO'ed by Mosley, every excuse in the world popped up. He had weight issues, he had eye surgery, he wasn't mentally focused. OK, you want to prove yourself to be the better fighter? Rematch Mosley and beat him the second time around.

    Instead, he's talking about going straight to a rematch with a guy he has already beaten, Miguel Cotto. Why? He has unfinished business with Mosley, not Cotto.

    There is a pattern here. Margarito has been defeated by Paul Williams and Daniel Santos in recent years. Margarito has never openly sought rematches with the two.

    But, he has sought rematches with Kermit Cintron and Miguel Cotto, two fighters he holds KO victories over.

    I'm not saying this, but there are people who will say that he doesn't want to fight guys that he can't beat.

    He should do the right thing and seek out a rematch with Mosley. That's what a real warrior would do.

    I totally agree with you.. Margarito isn't going to want to fight Mosley again when he got beaten so badly. I question every win Margarito has ever had now because of trying to use plaster with his wraps. I wouldn't be surprised if he used them in the Cotto fight. Look how badly he was cut up.

      Isn't he already contractually obligated to fight Cotto in the rematch? I do think he needs to give Paul Williams the rematch soon after Cotto though.

        Not sure SSM will grant him that rematch , especially right away. It was kind of one sided on the score cards. I think it would sell good on PPV tho and make for a good fight . I thought the one Sat was a good fight and ended well as well even though my heart sank in to my stomach. I would love to see a rematch w/them, lets hope so.

            It may or may not be. I haven't heard anything and with both being under the same promotional umbrella, who knows what to believe.

              What unfinished business is there? Margarito beat him already, what more does he have to prove against Cotto?

                I heard that it wasn't eye surgery Margarito had. It was actually hand surgery and the plaster was actually part of the cast that he took off and got accidentally stuck to his hand.

                LOL

                  well nothig has been proven that he used plaster.. they are investigating it now. we will see.

                  HBO was also quick to say Oscar got 5 million to attend an MMA fight last sat and Goldeb Boy and Oscar deny it. Just because HBO says soemthing on air doesnt make it true so to speak.

                  We will see what the verdict is when the CASC makes an official statement about the guage the removed to be tested.

                    Not just HBO.........The NY Post has an article about it where many people have stated similar stories about a hard plaster like substance.
