    It's difficult to say. His win against Cotto was epic, but there is controversy. He has some other good wins on his resume.

    What in the ****?
    Margo is a good fighter, but not even HoF, let alone ATG.
    What are you smoking.

    No, never, not even close. Ridiculous to even suggest it.

    Do people understand the term "all time great"?

    If you consider Cotto an ATG then Margarito is ATG too. Just like Frazier is ATG because of his win against Ali. Margarito's win against Cotto was epic, like a movie or something

    The debate here will go to the issue "loaded gloves" one more time. I bet!

    For me, the answer is no absolutely not.

    Lol, what an idiot.

    He isn't even HOF worthy. Cotton isn't even an ATG.

    No he was not. In reality we are lucky if we have 1 or 2 ATGs a generation. Of course we have alot of world class fighters and a few elite fighters who may even become HOF material after they retire and their career is digested but ATG is something else.
