2005-2009 "Margaritos a bum"

[theplayerpimp]

I know that, but I'm saying, for years, many fans of other fighters simply relegated him to "bum" status because he was, "slow, plodding, had no defense, no offensive technique, etc., etc.",


so if they many of them said all of that about Margarito throughout the years,

why is he suddenly this great victory on Shanes ledger?


Its like the Lakers beating the Clippers and Laker fans saying it was their greatest victory of the season.

Bc he destroyed two ricans and took their 0 add in martinez and you have a great resume. He was seen unbeatable and on the top of his game after making cotto quit. And every one was saying shane was going to get hurt and that he was to old before the fight and he just destroyed him. It was impresive.

How was Marg a bum in said years? These were probably his best years.

I don't know, I'm just repeating what other posters have said through the years.

If someone views Cotto as great then Margarito should get in the HoF and that would be as that would be a signature win for a popular fighter who had a otherwise good run.

I don't really view Cotto as great though, but I guess that depends how one defines great.

That is before bringing up any negatives, and no reason to discuss that here (as that has been done to death) but opinions vary on that also I guess.

I know that, I'm just looking for the people on this site who, through the years, have called Margarito a bum,

but somehow act like a victory by Shane over him,

is somehow great.


I just don't see how a KO victory over a supposed bum is somehow a great accomplishment. KOs over bums are supposed to happen.

Yeah i hear you bro..

Beating bums is impressive?

I mean, I guess, people around here were plenty excited when Paul Williams beat him, and said, "exposed", "hype job".

Many people believe he had to use inserts to beat Cotto and Cintron, etc.

so after having the inserts removed,

what makes it so impressive?

"Margarito isn't **** without his plaster, he couldn't even KO Garcia."

Bro, I'll school you, I've been a Margo hater since day one lol Margo gets too much praise for doing nothing lol, their, thats why some people are impressed by Mosley, not me tho. I called Margo a bum, 4 years ago, and said he wasn't *****. But 100s of fan boys called me a "hater" lol

[Plaster...Sad.]

Antonion Margarito De Plastero, is basically a bum with a ******s chin and powerful handwraps.

So if Margarito is a bum by your standard,

the Mosley win isn't all that great, right?


I'm just looking for consistency.
