Before you start calling me a nuthugger or whatever hear me out. The guy never had it easy,both his parents were dead by the time he was 13,he lived and saw his mother slowly die at home of cancer and never got to say goodbye to his father before a stroke ended his life. Hw was sent to live from Puerto Rico to Pennsylvania and was very homesick.He was a wrestler in high school and college in his teens. He picked up boxing very late at age 19 to get where he is.He has decent skills,good power,good jab,speed,reflexes but just a weak mentality. Yes I know he got one of the worst robberies ever in the Martinez fight(I'm a big Martinez fan and he should have won by KO7 if not UD clearly)and said he won after the fight but seriously did anyone expect him to say ''Yes,I lost.It was a gift''?More so you could hate(if that is the right term) trainer Ronnie Shields who prolly knew very good what happened and insisted in the locker room Cintron won.That's a guy I lost respect for.More so after recent events I've lost a LOT mor respect for Margarito for the Plasterfist double personality.Yet he doesn't get as much hate as Cintron.Does Casamayor get anything close to this hate for the outrageous gift with Santa Cruz?Or Holyfield from Lewis I? He's an entertaining fighter,doesn't really take soft touches. That being said I like him aswell as Angulo adn I expect a good fight and with hte recnt ridicolous IMO hate for him I'd kinda wish Cintron would pull it off but I'm still picking Angulo by KO.
This is ESB what did you expect? I'm sorry that he lost his parents early and all, but just because he had a hard upbringing means **** all. I don't care where he came from or what his been through that doesn't mean he can dance like a *** when he got a gift of a draw, cry like a ***** every other time and generally act like a *****.
That's hardly a reason. Mayweather cried too,so what?The dude is just more emotional I guess. And when was he acting like a *****?
His personality has really changed over the last year or two, he's been acting like a complete jerk and cry baby in the ring. It's annoying to see him faking low blows and rabbit punches and screaming to the ref for help every time it starts getting a little ruff in the ring. He himself almost seems like he wants people to hate him for attention or somthing, in the past he never really acted the way he does now.
[yt]_RcudrkHuuM[/yt] personally i dont like him. he looks for ways of getting out of trouble. he looks for a headbutt or a rabbit punch and uses that as leverage...fight brother. box move use your attributes the ref isnt there to stop you getting hit.
Thats my point....I think he is still smoking it!!!! He said in Beverly Hills the other night that, " you havent' seen nothing yet "
Martinez landed a clear left hand on him, and he cried to the ref over and over how it was a head butt.
Just let him keep doing what ever he is doing......he has been doing a great job so far! Sonia Sotomayor the next supreme court justice, Boricua Baby!!! all hail Barrack Obama
