    Although to retreat today to fight another day is wise strategy, one can only have respect for fighters who will go out on their sheild. And no man was more up for it than this man:-

    A true warrior who even insisted he is willing to die in the ring.

    Name fighters who were more up for the kill or be killed challenge than Tony.

    That hand wrap controversy will always hunt Margo. Although I think he still had balls to take punches like no other.

    I think the fact he was wrapped in plaster his whole career really helped his confidence when it came to going all out, he knew deep down if he could land the right shot he could end it all no matter how much previous punishment he had taken.

    He sucks.

    Great Chin decent power that is all... and if he wasn't willing to take a beating he wouldn't be getting the fights he got.

    Yeah he was brave going to a knife fight with a sword in hand.

    When Maragarito had his plaster hand wraps taken away he took vicious onesided beatings. Mosley beat him so bad he probably wishes he never crossed the boarder for that fight

    Even though i think he deserved all the whoopings he got and the cheating will always haunt him.
    He did go out on his shield vs Mosely and took a hellacious beating from Pac without retreating.

    Cheat or not the man had balls and was willing to die in there (not gonna argue if thats wise or not)
    But i do respect that about him.
    Even without plaster he was willing to walk through anything.

    Even though i agree with you that Mosely was in full survival mode vs Pac, i do think he redeemed himself some vs Canelo... he took that whooping like a man.

    Cotto began to wilt in the rematch much the same as the first fight. Could of been a repeat hadn't Manny crushed his orbital bone and retired him.

    Gatti was up for the challenge, and always went out on his shield.

    His corner pulled him out and forced him to RTD against Mayweather, but he probably would have continued,
