    Margarito has beaten more top 10 WW fighters than anyone else in the division and although he has no A grade names,no one else in the division does either(except Mosley)
    He's beaten:
    6 heads
    Kyvelos
    Diaz
    Martinez
    Cintron

    Decent fighters,good records.People may criticise them but fact is,they were threats/most thought they would beat Margarito. And to Floyd nut huggers,you can say 6heads got koed etc etc but which one of Floyd's last opponents ACTUALLY WON BEFORE they fought Floyd?!

    Here's why I liek Tony:
    Size
    Stamina
    Power
    can use good jab
    good bodywork when he needs to
    can counter,amongst other things. Stylistically,he would cause most at WW problems.

Add to that Santos is so soft and it means nothing. Alot of guys fight guys much bigger then them all the time. Floyd is always way smaller then his opponent. ****ing Chico weighed 147 for there 130 pound fight. Castillo was much bigger then Floyd, so was N'Dou, and I can go on.

      Thats not that impressive dude. Im not hating, just being real. When Floyd fights Margarito, Mosley, Oscar, and whoever, they will all outweight him by double figures.

      Santos just turned around and got killed by a bum right after that. Dont respond with nothing smart because Im talking straight facts. I think what Margarito did against Santos was good but nothing out of the ordinary.

      Thats another thing I dont get about Margarito fans and the Santos fight. They always bring up that Santos was 170, like Margarito doesnt have a huge weight & size advantage in every fight? He fights one fight when he's the smaller guy and you guys make it sound like he beat a HW. Fighters do that all the time, e****ally guys like Floyd, and against much better fighters then Margarito.


      Nice Post..!!

        The first Cintron fight, Cintron was a KO machine and a practically praised as a prodigy back then. I even remember everyone picking Cintron to win in their first fight, lol I remember Mexico vs PR was hot during then, Cintron was destroying people back then, Cintron just got past David Reid, and I think Margarito had punched some guys ear off on ESPN some months before that lol.

        It was one of those fights on the down low that you had to see, and come fight night, Margarito won, lol by TKO in 5.

        Ever since then I think his stamina, toughness, and work-rate are the things that put him on the spot. Dudes a beast, and to see a fight like him and Cotto happen, well that's just too perfect.

          margarito-cintron 1
          cintron was hyped like the next big thing on espn and margarito exposed his ass
          and got another win from mexicans over puerto ricans
          but mostly i always liked margarito cuz of his chin hes pretty much cant be koed
          i dont think cotto is even gonna hurt him cintron couldnt and he landed some huge bombs on him
