    No, Margarito's just BETTER than Cintron. Cintron pretty much sucks.

    I dunno though, because one would expect Robinson to win most times. If I slapped my little cousin around I don't think I'm his kryptonite.

    Perhaps Randy Turpin is a better example of kryptonite for Robinson, the first time at least.

    Other way around bro. Just like the real superman, Sugar found a way to overcome his cryptonite.
