Espn puts in perspective the BS about Margarito

[Piggu]

He said whoever wants to see Mayweather-Margarito should just look at the Shane Mosley-Antonio Diaz fight. The outcome would be no diffrent. Mediocre fighter (Diaz & Margarito) runs off winning streak against C, D level fighters. Whines and complaints till he gets title shot. Shows he's completely out of his league in one-sided lost. Fades away, never to be mentioned as a contender again. Same formula. Same results. That Atlas, he sure does know his boxing.

Thanks. Do you know when his book comes out?

Id say hes pretty close to being right on this, close. Margarito has faced 2 B level fights too! Hes dead on about the end result though.

Any knowledgeable boxing fan would come to the same conclusion.

bull****, dog****, frog****, human****....diaz earned at shot at a champion at 140 and nobody wanted to give him a title shot! So he goes up and fights mosley. diaz didn't have the power maragarito does nor the granite chin margarito has, though diaz had a very good chin himself.

after mosley he keep fighting then he meet up with margarito and we all know what happened. diaz was very deserving of a title shot at 140! if diaz is mediocore then im sure you think even less of micky ward, ivan robinson and corey spinks.

Ring Magazine is big on Margarito. They have him as the hardest puncher at Welter as well as the most deserving of a title shot.

Ward is a club fighter who makes exciting fights. People tend to think to highly of him for that reason. Robinson had already had his fights against Gatti and Manfredy. By the time Diaz fought him he was already washed up. And as much I dislike that chump Corey Spinks. That decision was bull****. I know because I have the spanish Telemundo copy.

you never did see diaz fight did you?

atlas' commentary is crap. it's just non stop talking, lessons in life, psychology of big man v little man, and i basically disagree with every single word he says.

the producers that keep him there know NOTHING about boxing, nothing. tessitore lets him go on rants - like the time today. It was so embarrassing to hear him get so worked up, his neck swelling up, the mumbling bumbling histrionics, i wanted to crawl under a chair. then tessitore instead of cringing in embarrassment at the amateur bowery boy delivery of it, says, "well said teddy." It's a clown show. just a bunch of idiots run that broadcast.

I actually saw him fight numerous times. He was a mediocre fighter.
