    What a brutal and great fight. Both put it all on the line.

    Margarito being a cheater I think redeemed himself a little. Almost by sacrificing his career in this fight. Wouldn't throw in the towel, wouldn't quit. Just kept getting smashed.

    And Pacquiao took by far the worst physical beating of his career in this fight. Those liver shots are probably hurting him to this day. This was really the last fight he had the eye of the tiger. He was hurting Margarito bad and wasn't going to stop until he finished him. To Margarito's credit he went the distance.

    Both men entered the ring in their primes. And both walked out of the arena that night past their prime.

    Uh, what?

    Pac took his foot off in the later rounds and kept imploring the ref to stop the fight.

    Did you see the beating Margarito was taking???? At some a point a fighter's humanity may surface.

    Margarito's prime started around the Diaz fight and ended at the hands of The Sugar Man.

    Very possible. One thing is for sure. Neither man was ever the same after this fight.

    Margaritoe is lucky he never faced Money in the ring. Money would have permanently damaged him.

    Neither, Floyd would never fight a man like Margarito, whether the one that Manny had the

    Margacheato did not redeem himself. He just got even more exposed as a cheat.

    LOL, this is hilarious. Old man Mosley ruined that dude.
    Pacs win over Marg was only slightly sh*ttier than Pacs win over the ghost of Delahoya. And for a TITLE at Jr Middle!!!
