    I know we will know more about what Margo has left after the Cotto rematch... But judgin by how he looked vs Pac and Roberto Garcia.. What are your opinions? Would be great.. But you can bet Margo wont gas.....


    Great fight and Kirkland probably tees off on Margo early... But if Margo has at least 85 % he should shake it off.. And **** up Kirkland bad......

    Prediction??? Kirkland looks like a mini Mike Tyson early... But Margo shakes the bombs off, and in the 3rd or 4th checks KIrkland hard,,, Wobbling him and showing him that he better check himself before he wrecs himself....

    Wolfe instructs him to stay inside and use his speed adavantage.. Rather than going balls out and kod... But to late.. THe Tijuana tornado is just getting started.... Great action with Kirkland landing more shots but Margarito doing his thing wearing down Kirklnad and hurting or stunning him in every if not every other round... Margarito closes it a couple rounds later in brutal fashion.

    Margarito Ko 8

    Great fight and I have no clue.... my head says Margo, my heart isnt sure.

    Would be rooting for Kirkland though.

    Im sorry but Kirklands chin is still glass, He gets KO'd early.

    No. No. No. No. :nono...If you're sending Margo out, send him out in a fight that he has a shot at winning. I think he is too faded and vulnerable to go rounds with Kirkland. IF and I mean IF the fight went past six, I'd favor Tony to win by stoppage....I'd say let Tony's last fight be Mayorga. This one is much closer. Mayorga is probably more skilled and has more one punch power. Tony is tougher, beats you up over the course of the fight, and stops you late....I'd favor Mayorga by a very small margin.

    I feel Margo because of his chin. Not confident either.

    No. Prime Margo stops Kirland. This Margo can't survive Kirland's punches long enough to do it.

    Margo doesn't hit as hard as Angulo without the wraps, so I see the fight being the same thing as last night except there being even less a chance of a countershot.

    Kirkland by KO in 7

    Margarito is a better fighter than Angulo. If Angulo was fighting the very best, he would not be landing counter shots either.

    Margarito is the same class as Angulo, and this talk like he was anything other than a bully in the ring should be trashed, Paul Williams foguht prime Margo and you know what Margo did? Fight in the middle of the ring catching everything P-Will threw and losing a decision.

    Lets cut the bull. Kirkland would land at will on Margo and the only question would be how long could he take the punches.

    Margarito loves coming forward and he can do that all 12 rounds no problem. Kirkland wouldn't give him any choice though. Margarito would be forced to fight going backwards, and he would be completely nullified.

    The Kirkland we saw last night is the one you see in most all his fights. That knockout loss was abnormal. The Kirkland we saw last night will tear Margarito a new *******. Margarito dont hit hard enough and hes a ****in punching bag. Premeditated murder.
