"I'll Die on the Ring" -The Margarito Syndrome

[ReadyUp]

Certain fighters you have to kill their will to keep them from trying and certain wills can't be broken.

Fernando Vargas, Tony Margarito, Diego Corrales, Gatti, you've never seen these dudes back away from any confrontation. It's all balls.

[SCtrojansbaby]

How can you be mad? Guys like Margarito, Holyfield, Gatti just have an entirely different level of commitment to the sport

The old Pacquiao was also willing to go out of his way to bring the fight to who ever stood in his way. The only time I saw him kinda give up was in the first Morales fight.

will any boxers in this age die in the ring? probably not

but to have that mentality of putting your life on the line is a good one to have IMO..don't mean u go in there and look to get mashed up..but it means u are not concerned with the outcome, ur going to get in that ring n give it your all

Sorry that it's better to not sacrifice "for the fans" like other boxers. Dude proved he will die in the ring. He has my props.

I bet if it was a PR boxer who would "give his life in the ring", your tones would change. You guys are the most fanatical pieces of shit on here.

Nah, I dont think so brother. I dont care for chesse sound bites, go for what I can see on the ring. If you are going to talk, keep it real and show what you got on the ring.

Think this was just a sneaky thread created to diss Margarito by a female-like Cotto fan......

STFU.

This is not one of those threads to cause controversy. Just seeking the consensus on what the opinion is when individuals utilize the "Ill die on the ring" statement.

All those guys are warriors, but Mayorga let me down when he Q U I T when Cotto layed some waste on him. He litterally went: No Mas!

By the way......I did not see the backwash or all the critics come after him for quiting?????

I think this type of mindset is quite widespread in Japanese boxing. Remnants of the warrior aristocracy culture linger on. It is similar in a way to the thinking of the vikings, where dying in bed of old age was considered shameful for a man, and dying in battle considered noble and fitting.
