For those of you on here that still watch boxing... In your expert opinion, did Margarito last night, look like he needed a poo? We have all the other excuses covered in the Barrera, Morales, Marquez, Cotto, Hatton, De La Hoya and Clottey fights. Passed prime, shot, weight drain, weight gain, didnt train, what about stomach pain? Did he have cramp? Did he need a poo?...or is there an argument that Margarito was green at LMW?? Also, do you feel threatened by Manuel Pacquiao's ATG resume and visually evident ATG ability? Whereabouts does he sit on your P4P list? Alab ng puso, kalamay hindi sumoko. Tagumpay, tagumpay, tagumpay.
Top 15 p4p maybe even top 10 if he can beat Floyd. The thing is that if Pac went down to JWW , where he belongs people will give him **** as he is cherry picking other boxers that are his size, even though the JWW division is not to bad. If pacman (a JWW) does not fight PW or Martinez (MW's) next he is cherry picking on small guys? , has this logic ever applied to any one else? or is it because Manny one of the best ever that it applys to him?
I wasn't satisfied with Clotteys' diarrhea excuse, if he was being truthful, it should have been visibly trickling down his legs.
No excuses necessary: Margarito is just not that good. Big though. It was a good win. Duran would have stopped him though, obviously.
Well, I do disagree. Unless you mean now? Margaito looked ****ing **** against Sugar and ****ing **** against Garcia but he probably is better than poor old Barkley. But what kind of sick **** is that?
Manny is somewhere in that 15-30 range. For me, he's probably somewhere in the 15-25 bracket. Pachilles, what did you think of Margo's chances before hand? Did you feel he was absolutely tailor made for Pac? Do you feel it does much for his legacy. I've been most impressed with Pac's win of Cotto as of his move up to the bigger divisions to be honest.
I think the Cotto win proved far more also. I knew Pacquaio was going to beat Margarito, tbh. Great, completely dominant win against a giant though. The reason i made this thread was because when McGuigan stated that Pacquiao should be mentioned with the likes of Duran and Robinson, i immediatley thought about this forum and how many of its posters would be enraged by that comment
Why would we feel threatened by Pacquiao's p4p dominance? If anything, I am enthused about how he keeps taking on more challenges, staying busy, and looking stellar in the process. I have my doubts about his matchmaking and performance versus boxer-types, there are a lot of questions that need answering there with Pacquiao, but he has proved his greatness. He is a top 20-25 ATG for sure. If even 10 fighters out there today challenged themselves in the ring and the gym like Pacquiao does we wouldn't even have to harp on about the decay of the game.
