Re-watched Margarito vs Cintron 1

[CANELOLUJAH]

Was a great fight on paper, and an actual great fight although I wished it went a few more rounds.

Kermit came out full of confidence and he was having some success at first keeping Margarito at the end of his jab controlling the pace, and enter round 2 same thing for the first half however somewhere in the middle of the round he stopped throwing his jab and was allowing margarito to get off first. By the end of the round the pace turned and become a more of a inside fight.

In round 3 I believe Margarito took away all of Kermit confidence by not being phased by any power shot Kermit was landing on him, These were the same power shots he landed on every pior oppenent and pratically knocked them all out. The 3rd round Is where I see the give in kermit and where he mentally already was waving the white flag.

All the other rounds was just kermit going through the motion, lil by lil withering away mentally more then physically. Margarito broke kermit spirit that night and he never recovered. Now kermit wondering around life like a beaten abused dog scared of everything, jumping out of rings to protect himself lol.

That was a pretty ****ty fight. Cintron folded like an accordian as soon as Margarito upped the pressure. Was way too inexperienced (and overhyped at the time) to square off against a battle-tested champ.

The second fight was more enjoyable. Cintron had won a world title and had supposedly improved. Fair play to him taking the rematch, he really thought he was going to put the demon to rest. I remember him starting well and bouncing power shots off Margarito's head but Tony just smiled back at him

Must have been demoralising as hell. You went back, re-grouped and became a champion but this guy still knows you'll always be his b1tch.

Basically what it boiled down too, in that fight he mentally collapsed fast and hard he was just half not sure if he wanted to go down or stay up and ifght lol and it wasnt even physical imo it was all mental untill Margarito took that choice away from him and made it for him and folded him up with that vicious body shot.

Margarito is a bad mofo. He's a soul taker, he owns cintron's soul.

theirs a interview with him where hes sitting/leaning against a ring in a empty gym somewhere and they ask cintron about margarito and dude pratically almost started balling out crying, it took his all to keep it together. Margarito Ruin that dude as a boxer and most importantly as a man. that dude will never be the same.
