I Think Margarito Took a Dive!

Lets say you have a boxing match. Fighter A is favored over fighter B at 4 to 1 odds. You bet 2 million on fighter B at 4 to 1 odds. That means you make 8 million if fighter B wins. That is not including taking the over under bets and the bets on by decision or KO.

ohhh... my bad... ya im not much of a betting man...

you really gotta be an idiot to figure you can hide such last minute big bets... or does this happen often??

anyhow, I still think we should stick to one dramatic Margo story at a time

Now I don’t want members to get it twisted. But anyone who has grown up in some of the bad parts of Mexico. Will understand that drugs pushing, forced prostitution, and ransom are big issues that need to be dealt with.

However, the fight itself seems legitimate. I just didn’t think Mosley could pull it off. He would take two put shots, and shorten the distance to keep Marg from attaining leverage or clinch him to wear him out. It takes a lot of balls to do that, because Marg attempts to pressure his opponents into a corner or the ropes. Look carefully at the video, everytime Mosley felt the ropes or the corner on his back. He jumped out of the way.

No Mosley one this fight farley, and solved the Margarito puzzle. Margarito needs to adapt, or more boxers will feel confident enough to pull of the same stunt.

I think the action was on a KO

Just like how Duran dived against Hearns

He als took a dive against Leonard in the "no Mas" fight

there was no dive...that pathetic cheating bastard got what he deserved...Margarito was exposed! He is not strong at all, his weak ass punches didnt even move Shane. Get it trough your heads Margarito is trash!

Well you thought wrong.

How is he trash. He beat 3 top 10 Welterweights. People really only remember a fighter's last performance. If Margarito is impressive bout then he goes back to Terminator status and he should be fighting SMWs. Lets all get level heads please... besides.. The Arellano's did it.

I didn't see any aggression from either Pavlik or Marg. If they were swinging and missing thats one thing. But I didn't even see Marg or Pavlik even really attempt to throw. And don't tell me Shane is hard to hit at this stage of his career.

Marg was swinging my friend I rewatched the fight last night two times. he was missing wildly. Marg throws wild punches from all angles but he is very slow. Shane was working with a trainer that focused on D for the fight. his whole game plan was to stick and move exchange when needed not go to the ropes and clinch when he was going to receive in return. he totally took Tony out of his rythem and Tony's punch output was a clearly affected by this. he fought a perfect game plan. he did what Cotto should of did go to the body and instead of just moving away he was either pumping his jab to Tony's chest stomach or face while he was moving backwards then sometimes he would lunge forward with his right hand and dip to his left. he was very unpredictable. Stop with this no agression BS. When you are in there with a World Class Fighter and they have you timed and are catching you with the shots like Shane was throwing lets see how aggressvie you are....As for Pavlik much the same he is very green and B Hop exposed him for what he was. A straight forward easy to hit puncher. He showed him movement and tied him up picked and chose his tiems to exchange and dictated the fight. he kept off the ropes and then eventually when he hurt Kelly he pushed the action. Stop with all this talk of fights being fixed. These 2 guys got beat fair and square....Lefty
