I dont classify that as quiting. When your getting your faced pushed in by a bigger man the right thing to do is stop the fight. That aint quiting. Cotto did not quit.
Marg is 5"11 which isnt' really big...his frame looks wider (Shoulders) than the average WW but Paul for the most part is a Big WW...guys like Clottely and Marg are fairly large but not "TOO BIG". DLH is also 5"11 and he's not seen as a large WW unless he's facing a guy the size of PAC.
I know...he was always seen as a freak of nature at 130 and 135.......he was able to make those division fairly easily until the later part of his career. Diego is like Paul in the sense that they both faught far below in terms of weight than anyone could have expected.
Sure. PBF never quit even with broken hands a bad shoulder he fought on. Margo not rematching his daddy Williams who owns his ass in the ring is the true definition of quitting.:yep The thought of Margo getting schooled by Williams again is the thing that keeps Margo and his fans up at night.
I agree Mex but he did say that he chose to stop the fight. But the man gave every ounce he had I ain't down on him at all.
There was a fight that stopped due to his hands...what do you mean fought on?? He said he quit too and couldn't continue the fight because of his hands...so it went to the cards Cotto quit because of a busted lip, bloody nose, and cut eye...
The funny thing is, I have seen Margarito nut huggers hate on Paul Williams for picking on guys much smaller than him
"Schooled":huh That's reaching.....Paul won clearly but it was definitly a competitive fight. Paul won more rounds due to his aggressive start and Marg couldn't get going until he had lost too many of the early and middle rounds. I'd still see Paul winning a decision if the rematch occurs but a "SCHOOLING" never happened between these two men.
There was never a PBF fight that was stoopped due to his hands. Against Carlos Hernadez he hurt his hands when he hit Carlos and he took a knee the only offical knock down of PBF's career.
Please you keep bringing up Paul Williams to use as foil to keep your arguement fresh. Look Tony had the balls to fight him, When they offered Floyd 8 Million dollars where were Floyds balls? I bet ya come back with that Linear ***git **** we spoke about earlier. its the only arguement you haters have. point is Linear doesnt mean **** Floyd ducked Margarito and its something that has been keeping you up at night.
Yup and I think the rematch goes the same way as the first, it's all good though I like Margo. I hope Cotto wins so we can have ourselves a trilogy:good
It was a schooling alright. A green Williams said he used to beat Margo in sparring and then proceeded to beat Margo at his own game. Williams swept the first half of the fight clearly and Margo won no more than 4 rounds in that fight. Margo knows he can't beat Williams and that's why he'll never fight him again. He can't outwork him and he can't outbox him. Williams has his number.:deal
