    Boy am I pumped to see this cheater, who's never accomplished a damn thing above 147 and hasn't won a meaningful fight in ages, get another title shot against a guy who weighs 180 on fight night. Thanks a lot Top Rank.

    Margarito must have something on Arum or he has some Mexican drug lords in his back pocket to scare Arum. lmao

    Its not a guarentee he loses to JCC jr. Tony is a big dude, and can take a shot like no other. Do you honestly think he is not as good as Sebastian Zbik? Good oppurtunity for Tony to claim a title.

    God damn, you're right. Margarito must have caught Arum fondling a boxer inappropriately back in the day, cause he just can't do enough for this guy. :nut

    Margarito's bionic eye is gonna get crushed. Unless he develops some Whitaker level defense to protect it, it'll forever be his Achilles heel.

    I think Sebastian Zbik is better at the middleweight limit than Antonio Margarito is at this point, yes. We don't even have any reason to believe hat post-scandal Margarito has respectable power at 154, nevermind 160 (indeed, there's evidence to the contrary given Garcia's reactions to his punches). This fight is even worse than Alvarez-Cintron.

    (Margarito) He beat the current best 160lbs fighter in the worlds ASS...
    (& also the best 147lbs fighter @ the time in Cotto)

    + IMO softened up Pac into his current state.

    Don't let hindsight blind you.

    Both of those fights were at Welterweight

    Both were when Magarito had two eyes and loaded gloves

    Things have changed

    Right... Still happened.

    Margarito is the business.
    All his fights are entertaining & his style is what the people want to watch.
