Best I’ve Faced: Antonio Margarito

[Rip Chudd]

I liked this article. I think Clottey is a solid fighter. For some reason he always refused to let his hands go. I thought he had Margarito in that fight but just let up the last half of the fight for absolutely no reason. Clottey also put some damage on Pacquiao in a losing effort and only throwing a few punches a round. I liked most of what Margarito said except I think he's giving Cotto too much credit.

Absolutely no reason? Didn't Clottey break both his hands or something like that in the Margs fight

Thanks. That was very interesting. I am surprised he was so kind to Cotto. He seems fair to everyone and gives credit to all the good fighters he has fought.

That Williams/Margarito fight was damn entertaining. Then again, Margarito was almost always entertaining, no matter who he fought.

Damn he actually gave Cotto some credit?wow

Big props to Margarito for listing Shane as the best overall. Its so common for fighters to list either a guy they beat or a guy the lost closely as the best they faced, while completely neglecting the guy that broke them down for three rounds and then knocked them out in the fourth. Margaritos a real man though and gave props to the dude who beat his asssssssss. Respect.
