Comments Thread For: Antonio Margarito Reveals Why He Left Boxing in 2017

[RuleOfTheSpear]

He should count his blessings pac found God before they fought. Pac probably would have killed him with nobody stopping that fight.

Only thing that saved his ass was Pac wondering why the ref wouldn't stop it realizing himself he'd probably kill him

I think plastered gloves are much worse than PEDs. But that’s just an opinion. Ban them all and set an example. You’ll hear no crying from me.

What fight did he used plastered gloves?

I love dissecting posts like these. So, let’s;

Floyd moved to 140 in 2005. He beat Gatti and Sharmba Mitchel and then moved to 147 in 2006.
So your theory that Floyd ducked him in 2005 is hogwash.

Floyd fought Zab and Baldomir in 2006. At that time Floyd was not a PPV Star. The only PPV fight he’d was with Gatti who was the A list then.

Floyd fought Oscar and the popular Hatton in 2007. That’s when Floyd became a cross over superstar.
So, your theory that Floyd ducked an $8m pay day in 2005 and 2006 is hogwash. Again.

Floyd and Arum the scum were never going to work together and Arum is on record refusing to match Cotto with Floyd.
FYI, Floyd called out Cotto at 140 after he had destroyed Gatti and Cotto refused. They needed a tune up for a guy that had just moved up to 140.
Cotto is on record about that during their 2012,clash. He did not deny it.

So your theory that Floyd ducked Cotto is Hogwash. Again.

Margarito did offer Floyd $8m. That part is true. But riddle me this please, Margarito’s biggest payday was against Cotto and it was less than $8m so how the he’ll can afford to pay Floyd $8m??

Floyd and Arum were not about to work together. So that theory is just hogwash.

Just FYI, Oscar, Floyd, Cotto, Mikey Garcia all left Arum the dirtbag. PAC also left briefly before Arum threatened a lawsuit so there goes your theory of offering Floyd money.

So Mosley is a cheat and Margarito was caught red handed is not.
Mosley destroyed him like a little biyatch that he was.

A year later Mosley the destroyer of Margarito got beat up by Floyd. Surprise, surprise

Margarito was a garbage fighter and got exposed when he got caught cheating and by Mosley. Period

That’s a lot of typing just to say Floyd blatantly ducked Tony.

And that response is from a person ducking facts given, hence a response that lacks substance

fight with Pacquiao had weight stipulations... that was never talked about

Huh ? Isn’t that what this whole conversation has been about ?

I mean, I guess as far as anyone could prove he never used plaster. He tried using it vs Shane but Nasim Richardson caught it. So that is what I was referring to. I also believe that wasn’t the first (or second) time he tried to use it. But whatever. The stuff was tested and analyzed and proven to be illegal and he was suspended and his coach suspended for life. Both should have been suspended for life though.

Definitely agree! He got his ass kicked after they caught him going into that fight and then the cotto rematch he got destroyed by cotto and didn’t inflict anywhere near the damage as the first fight

Yeah and yet he weighed like a super-middleweight come fight night.

Lmao reminds me when The Game dropped that 15 minute diss track against 50 and got roasted cause Joe Budden said, “Who the f needs 15 mins. on a record to get their point across?”

Lol. Anyway. Floyd did suck Margarito. That was a good duck too, cause I think Marg would’ve gave Floyd some big trouble. It’s okay, boxing is a business and Floyd was the best at the business part.

It's real simple. Manny ended his career by putting one of his eyes out. He was left partially blind ever since; Fighting with only one eye.
