rough tactics? You mean cheating tactics like go low when you are in trouble or illegally wrap your hands. It's not a big issue to Puerto Ricans though because Tito did that to others; however, if the tables were turned and Tito was on the receiving end of these low-class tactics, do you think these same Puerto Ricans picking Tito today wouldn't be pissing up a storm? :-(
Tito's a hella hard hitter, and while I think Margarito's chin is excellent, I could see a ref stoppage. But Tony's aggression and strength would keep this competitive.
Its all BS fool.... why did ODLH survive the fight without getting hurt if Tito had illegally wrapped hands ? Its because unlike Vargas, Joppy and the rest of the guys that were beat up by Tito ODLH could take a punch and was on the same level as tito !
Supposedly BOTH were warned BEFORE fighting Tito....yet NEITHER said Jack **** till Hopkins said something much later. Joppy was supposedly warned by Rahman, and Vargas by an "undisclosed source" as he put it. Call me crazy, but if someone tips me that my opponent is using illegal wraps, I'm not it right away. Not finally bringing it up a year or 5 months later. atsch
O M F G 19 people voted Margarito would win??????? MAKE THE POLLS PUBLIC! Honestly wtf Margarito is SO fkn outclassed. How old are some of you people 12??? Let me guess how many Trinidad fights have you seen Tito vs Mayo/Winky/Jones??? This is absolutely ridiculous, I am coming to the realization that many of you don't know anything about boxing. Margarito isn't even that great of a puncher, he is sloppy with a lack of defense and isn't exactly a counter puncher what so ever!!! Trinidad had some of the quickest hooks in the business...His right cross was FAST and pure power. His right cross left hook was an absolute killer. His left hook to the body followed by the left hook to the head was pull of KO power and he threw it EFFORTLESS...Trinidad could go 12 rounds without tiring at all and he has been in there with punchers that match Margarito to say the very least! W T F 19 people are on drugs, go watch a different sport get out of here. Even the current Trinidad would fk him up.
The fighters that have gone 12 rounds with Tito do not have a style anywhere close to the way Margarito fights with. The dude will be human punching bag for as long as he lasts. Just wait until Miguel Cotto gets threw with Margarito, then you all are going to realize the truth about how devastating Tito's power was.
No doubt brother. I'm convinced that a lot of the people that picked Margarito by KO in this thread are STILL drunk from Saturday night. This really isn't a fair fight. Trinidad simply has too much punching power for a guy that doesn't have a defense, fast hands, stiff jab and good movement. Trinidad would love nothing more than to have a fight against smeone like Marg. Vargas would've tore Margarito apart as well.
Tell me about it! Please if anyone can answer this question than they probably could eventually answer the secret of the universe too. How the **** is a fighter going to beat a Prime Trinidad W I T H O U T a JAB and W I T H O U T a DEFENSE????? I don't care how hard Margarito's chin is, It WON'T hold up!!! he'd get tattooed BAD.
[Exactly...i don't can't believe the stuff that people post on here sometimes....No straight ahead slugger is going to beat a prime Tito, especially one who's so open to getting hit, and that throws such wide looping punches uote=jecxbox]PRIME Tito???? 100% without doubt, KO late. He'd give him the same ****ing treatment he did to maurice blocker. My God Margarito is the style that Tito salivates over. Someone coming in lunching wreckless shots toe to toe. Tito has never lost a slugfight. and in his PRIME weight...Give me a break If this discussion is Prime for Prime..the people who voted for Margarito should be slapped in their face and banned. Slow ass mother ****ing Kermit Cintron landed punches on Margarito...Tito would ****ing unleash something EVIL on him...You guys are honestly saying that Trinidad Can't KO Margarito!!?? WTF lolol....Margarito was rocked stupid by daniel santos!! There is a big difference between a heavy punching slow puncher in Cintron...And an absolute pure puncher in Trinidad. Cintron's punching ability is infantile level compared to Trinidad's ability. Get real people!!!![/quote]
