You forgot to mention the part where Tony stood flat footed directly in front of Paul Williams and repeatedly made him miss. Anyone who claims Margarito is anything other than world class is a damn fool!
I love the feint in between those combination's. He sees an opening to the body but doesn't let lose...then as Salud thinks Barrera's next attack will be to the body, Barrera throws a perfect head-body combination. Quality stuff.
I don't think it's the Pac fans that underrates Margarito, it's the Pac haters thinking that Margo will be a walk in the park. :deal
I think it's more that, after two in-house Arum fights of debatable value, the fans wanted to see Pac venture outside the nest once again and seriously challenge himself against people who aren't beholden to his employer. Pac's a way better fighter than to be limiting himself to the Arum stable and f*cking catchweights. We all started to admire Pac for the way he went at the Mexicans; no hand-holding, no keep-it-in-the-family, just all out firepower. People still talk admiringly of those fights today, and will keep doing so for the next twenty years. It just looks as if he's taken the most convenient and lucrative route to the next title, not the best fight that could be made, or the fight that most people want to see in the absence of a Mayweather bout. That's got nothing to do with the fact that Margarito could turn out to be dangerous (which he could). It's just that Margarito, at 150, for a 154 belt, for which neither of them deserve their shot, wouldn't have figured in the top ten of most fans' lists for, "Who do you want to see Pac fight next?"
Mosley fought a fight that Pacquiao cannot fight against Margarito. Mosley used what you'd expect, mixing it up to the body and the head, but he also used his physical tools to which Margarito had no response. Mosley bullied him around the ring, barely backed up on Margarito, and when he did he would smash him with a big shot then push Margarito back. That's something Pacquiao can't do. So that surely means that Pacquiao is going to have to back up on Margarito. If I was a Pacquiao fan that would be what would worry me more. We can't say with 100% certainty that Margarito used plaster against Cotto, and I'm willing to bet Freddie Roach will see it that way. I want to see how long Manny will be able to back up before Margarito catches him, like he caught Cotto.
I'm less nervous when he was about to fight Cotto... ...but I'm more nervous compared to the Clottey fight.
i think Pac wins but i think he will get busted up a good bit by Margo....ultimately though i think Pac will reduce him to a shell and as he does most fighters when he overwhelms them with the power and speed....but Margo's strong and will connect at very rare times but he hits hard the guy can fight at 154 if he would stop being a chicken shyt....so look for Pac to look banged up but win a comfortable win.
Pac fans have no reason to be nervous about Margarito. Dapidran will look like a slickster in there with Mongoloid Margo-Cheato.
bull****! see pac-marquez? pac wobbled but maintain composure after getting hit by a shot he doesnt see coming how much more in this weight.
