How much do you think Margarito's layoff will affect him?

He had the same lay off time as Mosley, even though Tony was the one suspended...

 

Has anyone seen his opponent fight?
He looks strong and supposedly punches like a mule but I don't think he has the experience to fend off a fighter like Margarito. I haven't seen him before though. Anyway, the lay off shouldn't affect him too much if he's not fighting someone who will stretch his abilities. He should be okay, Goldie Johnson type of fight.

 

Should be interesting, The butterflies will defo be there.
A comeback fight especially after everything that has gone down will add to it.

That said, The layoff could also help a fighter like Margarito who started his fight career at an early age without a break...

I'll be tuned in.

 

Probably a lot. His last big laayoff was before the Clottey fight and he looked like absolute shite there, so you might expect the same thing from Margarito here.

 

I think the layoff, combined with the beating he received from Shane and of course the lack of plaster in his gloves, might make this fight a lot closer than most people think.

 

who is he fighting?

 

Do you really want me to use the Ellerbe one instead?

 

Not as bad as not being able to put casts on his hands.

 

bump

 

Don't mean to be a ****, but I think Margo is finished as a fighter, the beating he took from Shane was pretty ****ing painful, he aint a boxer- puncher or a mover, he's a straight up come forward guy, meaning once that chin is cracked, its over. I think all the years of punishment + the huge beating from Shane finished his punch resistance.

 

Im going to go out and say he loses but still gets the decision.
That guy he is fighting has decent power and will keep Margarito honest.
