Im a big fan of Shane and im curious about something and i want to see how some of you guys feel about it.....Do you feel the reason he beat the **** out of Margo so badly had a lot to do with the wraps being found? what i mean is do you think that Margo was very distracted which didnt allow him to completely focus on the fight and it made Shanes win seem more then it might have been had there been no controversy? Just curious:rasta
The performance was electric and he is clearly the better man regardless but Margo must have been ruined mentally. I mentioned something similar on a recent thread!
i dont think so. mosley was hungry and mangled him. margo took the heat after the fight more that before but its a good possiable maybe it was in the back off his head.
Im also a huge Mosley fan. Im Mexican but I would prefer Mosley over Margo any day. Going into the fight i thought that MArgarito would beat him just due to the fact taht Mosley had a bad performance against Mayorga and Margarito just destroyed Cotto. I actually think that maybe the reason Margarito was using those wraps is because of those rumors going around that he was having trouble with the weight. He got silk pajamas syndrome. Then after being caught obviously you are going to feel uncomfortable. I just didnt see the intensity in Margaritos performance also when he was walking to the ring he looked really nervous when normally he looks like he is having fun. Some people say he wasnt as aggressive because of the punches he was taking but Margarito has taken huge shots from fighters like Clottey, Cotto, Cintron and PW but never stopped coming. I think it was the weight drain along with the scandal going on. However i still think Mosley beats MArgarito no matter what. Stylewise it always favors Mosley. As long as he doesnt show age.
Styles. No weight-draining, no issue with the wraps, Shane was just plain and out the better fighter.
It was a matter of styles,Shane always does great against mexican style fighters,guys that are always coming forward to trade punches.
I agree with all of you that i think Shanes style for Margo is and will alwys be his foil.......thanks for the replys
Style nightmare...Come on now, Sugar sparred with Chavez for sakes. He was well known among the Mexican community and was the best sparring partner to prepare for quick fighters for quite some time.
Sugar Shane proved to be Margarito's master. Doesn't matter how many times they fight the results will be the same.
Personaly if i was Margo i would have tried even harder to destroy Shane after the wraps had been found to prove he did not need them to win. Based on that i give Shane a mountain of credit for that win
I would like to see a re-match!! Margarito would fight shane a hundred times!! He doesnt care... I really think margo didnt train properly, I think he would do better in a re-match! I never saw him fight with no spirit, he looked drained before the fight!! Margo will be back in 2010, he will beat shanes ass next year!!!!!!!!
Being the better fighter with a good game plan ws the reason Shane beat Margo. Effectivly clinching was important.
