2005-2009 "Margaritos a bum"

[Plaster...Sad.]

I totally agree and I'm a Cotto fan... Tonys style will Always give him fits... It's like Tony bullies the bully... I think Tony would beat Miguel 7 out of 10 times in the best of 10...

Again... You are basing that on a fight in which there is a STRONG probability that ILLEGAL wraps (plaster) played a BIG part in the outcome.

Consider Cotto's nose being busted VERY early in the fight and how that played into his stamina/strength as the fight went on. Watch the fight and it was Cotto's to win it until the last 20 seconds of the 10th round.

Keep that "win" in perspective when we say sht like "Marg's style will always give Cotto fits" etc etc, More like "Marg's plaster wraps will always give Cotto fits."

Watch his last few fights and tell me he is a wrecking machine. Not.

Didn't see the Garcia fight... Against Shane he was mentally out of it for #1, Probably done at 147 #2 and fought a guy who was motivated and had the tools/physicality to execute the perfect gameplan to beat Tony most important and #3...

Against Manny it was the dynamic speed that dominated Tony... But I watched it 4 times and each time felt that Tony was still dangerous all the way up to the 10th... One body shot could have shocked the world...

Margarito was a world class boxer from 05-09

Margarito 2010 is washed up after not fighting for over a year.

nah, nah, nah. Mragarito is still a dangerous fighter

[El Protagonista]

It's why people shouldn't downgrade opponents too much. The same will be said if Pacquiao beats Mayweather.

It will be funny to see all the people who called Mayweather an overrated chicken, bumweather, etc all of a sudden praise Mayweather for being such a great opponent and use him for their arguments of Pacquiao being the GOAT.

Same goes for Mayweather if he beats Pacquiao.

mosley and margarito have seen their best years come and go, but they dont see it that way and think they are still peaking.

neither are bums. whoever suggests that i think is probably pretty young and naieve.

[RAV3N]

How can people call good pro boxers bums?

The plaster. For all we know Margarito could of used it throughout his whole career. Or, he could of just tried to use it on Mosley and just got caught. Too many questions, and look what he did to Garcia without plaster. That wasn't the same Margarito that demolished Johnson, Cintron, and Cotto. Not even close.

If you watch early margarito fights he was a bonafide journey man scrub not the same fighter. No power etc. Add plaster... different story. All of a sudden he is knocking people out left and right.


Plaster. Sad...

Cotto is,was,and always will be a front-runner.Margarito always comes on strong during the course of the fight,dipsh^t.

Even in the rounds he was winning,Cotto was still getting tagged plenty.And as the Pacquiao and Clottey fights show,Cotto starts running to survive once faced with adversity.

Run? Thats what Mexicans call it runnning but boxing is a sport, go to MMA and be "warriors" takes 40 punches, and fight has ended, boxing includes footwork, and intelligence to win fights, being a warrior in boxing is so overrated.
