Someone already pointed that out looooooooong before you.
Margarito was a clear brawler who got shown how feeble his brawling style was when up against a real talent.Comment

He out-boxed him. That's for sure. How you score that fight comes down to how you interpret the rules. I am the first to say that Johnson deserved an immediate rematch. And I fully acknowledge that in that era, applying pressure weighed more heavily than effective defense. But Pastrano looked like a snake-charmer, the way he was leading him around all night.
One of the biggest robberies of all time.Comment

So someone had a gun to Johnson's head forcing him to follow?
It's not Pastrano's fault that Johnson couldn't cut-off the ring, or mount an effective offense. It's disappointing that Pastrano didn't do more; he didn't really capitalize on Johnson's predictability. But at the same time, you can't penalize a fighter for what he doesn't do.
If you wana say it was competitive rather than dominant. But if you think that was a robbery, you don't get Boxing.Comment

He did cut off of the ring, he landed all the clean effective hurtful punches whilst Pastrano literally ran for the entire fight.Comment
