    He had some top notch acting in round 10 too when the doctor squeezed his hand and he made an exaggerated painful grimace.

    He nearly dropped Judah as well and was winning the fight. If the fight was stopped from a headbutt I have no doubts at all that Judah was going to at least hit the canvas once, Judah was getting really tired and Clottey was still throwing.

    I dont think Margorito got himself up for the Clottey fight. He was trying to land a big fight and having a diffacult time in doing that. Not landing Cotto or mayweather and cintron capturing a belt again. He wasnt focused. I also think he started slow then turned it up in the later rounds which was his typical game plan prior to the Williams fight. Which was probably why Clottey won most of the first half of the fight. Also he didnt respect paul williams and let him get a lead too early. Margorito is not going to lose to Clottey or Williams. And I would be happy to bet time off on that.

    Always an excuse for Margo being out classed, with Paul it was he started slow, I wonder why? , and now with Clottey it is he wasn't himself. Come on folks.

    Woa woa? Because Clottey has done what every fighter before him as done he doesn't get the credit?

    Mayweather lost a couple rounds early to Judah and went on to dominate.

    Cotto lost a couple rounds early to Judah and went on to dominate.

    Clottey was doing the exact same thing until Judah quit.

    Pretty much. He pretended like he couldn't see how many fingers the doc was holding up. This forced the Doc to call the fight.

    Judah pretended not see how many fingers.

    If someone holds up two fingers, if you're seeing extra vision. You will see more than 3 fingers. :lol:


    The Doctor stopped the fight because Judah said he couldn't see. Not because of the cut.

    I like Zoo, but Judah just got completely cocky after clearly outclassing Zoo that first round.

    Now would Zoo would of been him later on? Who knows, but if Zab wouldn't of got cocky things might be diff.

    Its not an excuse its reality. Put yourself in his shoes. He just KO'ed Cintron and Cintron gets the IBF strap. Mayweather wants nothing to do with you. De La Hoya wont touch you. And your preparing to fight Josh Clottey on Showtime in front of a handful of fans. How do you get up for that ? And watch the Paul Williams fight and get back to me.

    Margo beat Clottey fair and square, but the fight was different once Clottey injured his hands, are you going to deny that?

    That is the thing, he didn't come in sluggish or weak against Clottey, Clottey was just handling him until he hurt his hand, he was the same Margo the whole fight. The same thing applies to the Williams fight. Margo does what he always does, its just for atleast the 1st 6 rounds Paul did not let him be effective.

    Now you are grasping at straws, he hurt his hand, still doesn't change the point I made. Stop being so over dramatic.

    dude, people have been saying this forever now. Its just fewer and fewer lately. Once he unifes welter there will no more haters left. Amsterdam called him C level. C level, cmon amsterdam you know I gotta break your balls for that one. Huki said he was B level too. What a ****ing idiot. And watch, hell say he didnt even say it either the *****.
