I think Margarito was sending a subliminal message to Oscar for not going the full 12 rounds like he did.. I wouldn't be surprise to see De La Hoya Vs Margarito in the near future, LOL...
Well another good fight was cotto vs clottey. Cotto had a worst cut under his eye like in the 6 round and went all 12 rounds to win it.
Yes. He actually said before the fight that he's "not going to quit like De La Hoya did." Margarito doesn't like him.
Margarito needs face surgery after Pacquiao http://sports.yahoo.com/box/news;_ylt=AknibKoFSuPmVfuVAcANq4E5nYcB?slug=ki-margaritosurgery111410 ARLINGTON, Texas – Antonio Margarito was determined to make it to the end of his fight with Manny Pacquiao on Saturday no matter what, and he wound up paying a severe price as a result. Margarito will have surgery on Tuesday at Dallas Methodist Hospital to repair a fractured right eye socket, said promoter Bob Arum. Arum explained the surgery can’t be performed until the swelling on the eye has reduced.
From Roach: "He might never fight again. He has the worst corner. His corner ruined his career." So if you're his corner do you throw in the towel and when? Marg definitely had to prove himself as a fighter to the fans, but he's definitely not going to be fighting for a while, or at all if Roach is right.
The ref could have stepped in and taken it out of his and his corner's hands. I realize "finishing" is a big pride deal, but the ref is there to protect you from your own pride. That is why Manny kept looking at the ref like "dude, please stop this before I permanently injure him".
Agree, the ref should have stepped in and stopped it. If Pac hadn't of let up there's no telling how much worse the damage could have been. It was tough to watch those last couple rounds.
That's what he get for making fun of freddy roach parkinson disease @2:03 <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6DrlrjXHKdw?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6DrlrjXHKdw?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>
yeah Texas' boxing rep will suffer because of this. We might allow dog fighting if we're letting people get beaten to death in a ring.
What happened? I thought Margarito was such a tough guy he talked smack about those with Parkinson's? I guess he wasn't so tough after all. Letting your face and brain get obliterated because you already ran you mouth about Oscar not going the distance with Pac and wanting to keep his "pride" is hilarious and tragic at the same time.
