Margarito earned my respect after the shalacking he took from Pacquiao, and his refusal to quit, not that he didn't have my respect anyway. He's a warrior, that's what I want from my boxer's. And I'm not gonna be a contradict when it comes down to the Shane fight because Shane's a cheating **** and has came out to be quite bitter too. Cotto's loss I still believe is legit, and his face looked exactly the same after taking a beating from Pacquiao. If Margarito is still at his best (I don't believe he is, he's been through too much) he'd do the same to Cotto again. Cotto can't keep him off him.
Nobody knew anything for the Cotto fight. Its just the haters who are assuming. And you know what they say about assuming.
Either way iv finally saved up enough cash to fly stateside and watch a Cotto fight live!!! I can't wait for Dec 3rd :bbb
Man it was a choice between goin to watch a Man United game @ Old Trafford or my favourite boxer....Needless to say this lil SA boys chose the Cotto option pretty kwikly!!!
he means the fact that robert and him were making fun of the whole incident....but to me, that just tells me it was never really a big deal to begin with......:good
After the handwrap stuff, i went off Margarito a bit, but after the Pacquiao fight i found respect for him again. The beating he took and refusal to quit was unbelieveable
I was at MSG for Cotto-Clottey. People were booing like crazy when they just showed a flash of Margarito on the big screen before Cotto made his entrance. I can only imagine what it's going to be like with him in the flesh.
I'm a great fan of both fighters but this one imo is gonna come down to mental toughness, and without injury ...its Margarito for me.. Unless... The only way I see Cotto winning is through Margaritos nasty orbital injury flaring up. Damn Margarito is gonny need to keep that right hand held high all night. Can he do that ??? I dunno..
Ridiculous thread. I remember in the build-up to Cotto/Foreman there was a similar thread. Get a grip. Some people think New York is like this: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckvDo2JHB7o[/ame]
