    Yet Antonio Margarito cared Floyd Mayweather so much when he confronted him that Floyd literally soiled his pants. Just watch the video on UTube Floyd was terrified as his goons had wandered off & he was all alone. No way in hell would Floyd have ever got in the ring with Margarito

    I'm throwing down the gauntlet: the stoppage of lightly experienced Martinez >>>>> either stoppage of Cintron.

    What about Roy Jones jr, Shane Mosely, Evander Holyfield, Vitali Klitschko??? Every one of them plus many more fighters were PROVEN EPO steroid abusers, yet theyre classed as shoo in HOF inductees :patsch The HOF today is a farce an insult to the many really great champions enshrined there

    Yes, Hall of Fame worthy and this is why,

    He is one of the best examples of a s****py misfit, a guy that could go head to head with the most refined and polished athletes which mayhave been groomed for the sport since childhood.

    He gets my vote because boxing needs bad guys like him in the sport. He is a truth serum for anyone's toughness, and represents a little of the dark side of boxing. He is not a forgettable guy.

    One win over a hof fighter in Cotto does not automatically make Margarito hof material.

    Thing was guys like Hamed actually ruled their divisions for a number of years, Margarito also lost to all the best fighters he fought.

    Williams, Cotto, Mosley, Pacqiauo, that just outweighs his achievements in my opinion.

    He was tough but not hof material.

    Floyd is scared of Pacqiauo too and would never sign a contract to fight him.

    :lol:
    I have to agree. Cintron beat Angulo and Ndou while Martinez became the lineal MW champ.

    He devastated a HOF'r
    Got exposed in next fight with loaded wraps!
    Has lost every fight in a bad way since he was exposed with loaded wraps.

    With exception of club fighter Garcia in which Margarito surprisingly brought his bicycle.

    Proved to be a walking punching bag in rematch with the HOF'r he previously chopped up like liver.

    HOF worthy....NO !
    Not now nor ever...Margarita was a glorified Club Fighter with a very seedy trainer who has gotten away with far worse than you'll ever know!!!

    Show me when he was exposed?? He was ACCUSED of attempting to load his wraps by a bald faced LIAR!!!! No proof has ever been forthcoming. No proof ever existed. The CSAC claim they MISLAID!! the only evidence they claimed to have.
    How convenient for them Huh ?????

    No one ever proved he cheated but PROVEN!! EPO steroid abusers like Mosely, Jones jr, Holyfield, Vitali Klitchko etc are considered shoo ins for the HOF HOW!!!They are PROVEN CHEATS & should be shoo in for the Hall of SHAME!!!!

    If you go by other fighters who have been inducted then yes. Margarito was definitely avoided by some until the Mosley loss. I remember DLH clearly ducking him as well.

    I find his accusations of plaster in handwraps a complete and utter lie. If a professional boxer wore handwraps he would be killing people not dropping them for a ten count.

    I will have to review his resume to make a clear decision. Undefeated Cotto and Martinez are great wins though. Specially the Martinez win. That one aged really nice.
