That's right. I'm getting to the point of where I want to see Margarito back in action. Fuck it. To let everybody know, I was a Margarito fan at the time when he was putting in his work although infrequently due to things he had no control over like HBO wanting to ****block him for no reason other than his non-glossy record. I became an even bigger fan when he crushed HBO's Rican hype machine that Lampley referred to as a Puerto Rican Julio Caesar Chavez. I guess he didn't look the part in his fights against Mosley and Margarito and here recently Clottey. Where was his body punching?
The thing that made me quit being a fan of Margarito wasn't the fact he got caught with an illegal subtance in his gloves, but the fact that he adopted a me on top of the world attitude and he over valued himself and even went MIA and drug his feet in the Mosley negotiations and he was also unwilling to avenge his loss to Paul Williams and was calling out Manny Pacquiao at the same time. I think that he went into the fight with Mosley out of shape and looked for a last-ditch advantage and it's the first time that Capitello tried to pull something shady. I think Mosley would beat Margarito ten times out ten. I'm not denying that.
But that doesn't change the fact that I view Margarito's style as exciting and all out action, and the fact that the Cotto stans are constantly dwelling on plaster and not accepting the fact that Cotto got beaten at his own game (Body punching, close quarters combat. Cotto did that to his other opponents) is causing me to like the guy again all of a sudden. Why would Margarito constantly nail Cotto with body punches if he had loaded gloves? Can someone answer this for me. Resto landed nothing but head shots on Collins. And Vasquez's face in his third fight with Rafa Marquez looked a hell of a lot worse than Cotto's. Cotto stans are welcome to debate with me and others.
