Comments Thread For: Antonio Margarito Says: "Let's Forget About The Past"

You need to go back and watch more boxing before you decide to call me out. First off, touching someone and hitting them with force enough to damage them are two different things.

People often ask the question, how can Pac hit people with one shot and KO them? He must be on steroids...right?

It's because its the shots you don't see that KO you. The shot he hit Hatton with is a prime example, Hatton had no idea it was coming. Those are the types of shots that KO'd Cotto and that will hurt Margarito.

Marg will touch Pac but he's not going to hit Pac with anything that Pac can't see coming just like Cotto hit Pac with. That's the same reason people were shocked that Pac took those shots from Cotto.

Anyone who has ever boxed or even sparred can tell you the same thing, when you see the shots coming, it's much easier to take them. It's the one's you don't see that will KO you.

This fight is a joke, Cotto is 2X the boxer Marg is, that is a FACT. Cotto was hitting Pac after the 2nd round but he wasn't hurting him and as the fight wore on, he was getting DOMINATED....IT WASN'T EVEN CLOSE.

Some of you are delusional in making that Cotto fight closer than what it was, Pac DESTROYED Cotto.

I just don't see anyway Margarito can win this fight. His strategy will be the same, come in, absorb punches and hope to wear Pac down. The only problem with that is, Pac isn't Cotto, he will not wear down. We have seen Pac time and time again go hard for 12 rounds like it's nothing. This guy is in INCREDIBLE shape, he will move and move and move and not stop moving. Marg will chase and get hit with pot shots and it will go on and on like that until the fight ends or until the ref decides Marg has been hit too many times in the head.


Look, I'm not saying Marg doesn't have a prayer, there's always a chance if he lands a lucky shot but other than the outside chance of that happening, I don't see Pac losing.

You speak much truth, but I believe that Cotto went in with the wrong strategy. He tried to outspeed Manny and paid dearly, not having the proper gameplan or trainer caused him to go into survival mode. It was at this point that stopped hitting Manny with meaningful shots. The truth is that in order to lead as often as Manny does he must expose himself. His speed allows him to get away with it very often, but with the proper gameplan he is beatable especially by someone who has Margs physical attributes. I'm not saying Tony is going to blow Pac away, but it would not surprise me if he pulled it out. The guy always came to fight, and who is more motivated then him right now. All this is good, because in my opinion it equals great fight. I appreciate the talent that pure boxers have, but when I buy Pay-per-view, I want to see the fighter take their chances and not just play it safe. This is why I give much respect to both of these fighters.

You just compared streaming a fight to pounding someone with plaster-wraps. You're really intelligent buddy...

The fact is that both of them call into question integrity. The fact is that no one has proven they were plaster wraps. The fact is that no one got pounded, except for Tony that night. I'm just pointing out that if you are so high and mighty that you are going to boycott the fight then do it, but don't wipe your Arse with your honor code by saying that your streaming it.

We'd all love to leave you in the past, you rotten scumbag. Keeping with that logic they should let Charlie Manson out to babysit for you while you train.

Margarito is the man

I can wait for this one. Two guys that goes forward not like gayweather who runs like a chicken. Two gladiators. Those are the ones that keep boxing alive. Go margarito, then we take care of Cotto. Again. .... nitramzaid@hotmail.com

Antonio "The Real Hands of Stone" Margarito...has spoken....

can't wait for this fight, not for the boxing but for everyone posting to shut the **** up!!!!!...worse than my mother-in-law whinning all the time, grow up f*ggots...

Finally boxing fans will watch a good fight, at least. Both Pac and Margo are warriors. They don´t hug and run like boring Gayweather or Mosley. Asians vs Latinos is a guarantee of a good fight.

If Cotto would of cheated I would give him the same benefit of the doubt. Doesn't have to do with the flag like many of you fools.

Thanks for the laughs though ******.

First that's bull****... you would villify hime equally as harsh if not more... Notwithstanding, I do appreciate your unrelenting passion to your position in protecting this cheater.
