I see Garcia getting praised sometimes but I have yet to see him do anything that special. Hes also to blame for having Tony almost lose his eye, everytime he would go to his corner and give Tony instructions he sounded like an idiot. He should have thrown in the towel.
    Yea but he works for Margarito. You should know that Margarito most likely gave him instructions to not stop the fight. Margarito needs to be on beast mode vs Cotto. Hopefully he does and he can finally shut these shit talking Cotto stans up for good.

      LOL, at Margarito changing his style. Margarito fights only in one style. Margarito would never beat Pacquiao ever, Margarito doesn't have the brain or athletic ability of Marquez to fight like Marquez or Floyd's style.

        Its the trainers duty to look after the safety of his fighter, I know Margarito is all heart and never quits but that was the most brutal beatings hes ever taken, I don't care how pissed he would be, if that was my fighter I would have stopped it. If Cottos punches couldn't do **** to him at 147, I don't think they will do that much at 154 (153) but the only concern here is his eye.

          I'm not worried about the eye one bit. I'm more worried about the ref, judges, Cotto running pot shotting to win and like I said Margarito not being reserved one bit.

            If that's the case then neither does Cotto. Marquez isn't really athletic but he is very wise.

              Marquez is Athletic enough to avoid punches and counter with his own.

                That's being technical which is part of his style of being a counterpuncher.

                Look at Margarito, he's one of the hardest trained boxers in the world. His stamina is hard to match. You don't find that "athletic"?

                  perhaps, but they could have gave him a better gameplan, something Garcia obviously didn't do. I know its hard for many fighters to try and change up their style but Margarito had the height advantage and arm length to keep Pacquiao at a distance. Margarito's style is not technical at all, but its fan friendly and hes given some great fights with it.

                    I honestly feel that Garcia is as dumb as Margarito is.

                      Better gameplan or not he couldnt hurt Pacquiao at all and his size ended up being a liability for him. On top of that is was Pac who looked like he had the reach advantage. Even Roberto Garcia was boxing Margarito effectively and making him look silly and featherfisted at times.
