    LOL you are one funny dude.

    His legs were done in the 11th round vs Cotto?? he came strong as **** and made Cotto take two knees, what fight where you watching?

    Looked like garbage against Mosley after being mentally ****ed about the wrap fiasco and came out looking as dehydrated as a ****in 6 week corpse, yet he lasted 9 rounds of pure unadulterated beating by the hands of a known PED abuser in Mosley who I dare to say came out jacked up in PED's for that fight, he looked like a prime Tyson.

    He was ready to in the 5th round against Manny? well if you had a broken orbital bone since round 4 I don't know how long u would have lasted in there against the best fighter in the world and another PED abuser tough guy...he went the full distance and Manny didn't stop throwing bombs at him until the 12th round, in which he took off by pitty.

    You are a clown.

    P.S. Nice Berto siggy you douche....

            I think a more interesting question is who can he beat at this point in his career.

            all i know is margs vs angulo would be a straight up war!

              Yes, I believe that he is past his prime, since about a year before he last to Mosley.

              For what it's worth, what I noticed in Margarito's fight with Manny P. is that i think Manny is also past his prime, just not what he was, much slower, recovers slower, less head movement, I suppose it may just be age creeping up, as they all age pugilistically at different chronological times, but I'm sure the effect of havign to eat so much to keep up his weight, and then getting into the ring and duking it out with guys so much naturally bigger and heavier than him MUST have a negative effect on him.

              Just my opinion.

                  He's past it.

                  I think he was a tad on the decline by 2008 to begin with. Although he was never fast to begin with, he seemed to have slowed down somewhat from earlier years (the Diaz fight for example), in addition to having a lot of mileage from prize fights and gym wars. He took a lot of clean shots in his wins in 2008 over Cintron and Cotto. Then of course, Mosley and Pacquiao beat the **** out of him.

                      Its actually funny how now one talks about how shot this man is. I can only imagine how fried this guys brain is, he used his head as his defense for his 17 year career. Massive shots to the dome vs Cintron, Cotto, Mosley, Pacquiao certainly put the cherry on top. When he was riding high people were amazed by his chin which is really not a good thing because the chin had to be viciously tested numerous times for people to be amazed....which again is not a good thing. He lost more in his last victorious fights than he won. Fernando Vargas and Erik Morales actually had skills and they were done towards the end of the career, you bezz believe Margacheato is dunzzo thats why Arum wants to milk him one more time for a Cotto rematch with out any tune ups because he does not want him looking like shit again.
