Was the Antonio Margarito that fought Pacquiao PRIME?

[John Barron]

he fights the same way every time, every fight. it's hard to determine if he ever had a prime. he looked totally confused with pacquiao's speed though.

Hard to say but I don't think he was ruined by Mosley like a lot of people think. I'd say he was pretty close to the same Margarito that beat Cotto unless he was using hand wraps in that fight.

he had a bad back and was trying to make weight the whole camp, mosley caught him at the right time.

[tacuso]

Probably not, but he is most motivated on this fight. There is no quit on him.

[FloydTBE]

i would say not

[Phil Ivey]

Hell no, he hasn't done crap since post plaster - fact. Getting KO'd by a 40 yr old and a decision win over a journeyman is not prime, not like prime Margarito was ever really good anyway.

[BennyST]

Absolutely. He was the reigning champion and had just come off the best wins in his career and hadn't lost in years. He was prime as prime can be!

[Imatroll]

If he had sum plaster he'd be prime

[MaD RoBoT]

no

Pac himself is already slipping past his prime though

true story

[mortal_combat]

of course he was past his prime.....just like barerra, morales, jmm, diaz, hatton, cotto, and soon to be mayweather.

[G Doggy Dog]

he wasnt prime but he wasnt exactly far from it ........ still wondering if he used wraps for the cotto fight

[DAN916]

Cotto n Tony retired eachother... atimes i even think cotto took more out of him maybe cause karmas a *****!!
