Is Kell Brook the new Antonio Margarito?
Brook has damaged his eyes in his last 2 fights should be call it a day and retire or does he continue to carry on boxing knowing his eyes may be at risk?

I thought he had been caught loading his wraps or something......as for his injuries, I do not wish those on anyone and they happen to too many. I always hope for the best for a fighter's health, but at the end of the day if he can pass the medical review for the athletic commission and he wants to continue fighting it's his life.
People seem to forget that both Marco Antonio Barerra and Edwin Valero boxed with plates in their heads which is also pretty scary.
Re: Is Kell Brook the new Antonio Margarito?
Bit of a random post considering that Brook has pretty much been out of the lime light since the Spence loss.
I think he carries on, he has one or two gimmies then he fights Queen Khan, if his eye holds out against Khan and he beats him then he is back in contention.
He's not stupid though, he knew he was in trouble with his eye against Spence and he retired, he isn't going to take any stupid risks.
It could be more of a mental thing with him, I can see him panicking and quitting for fear of his eyesight as soon as he gets a mouse under it but I can't see him fighting till it drops out.

Margarito wasn’t a quitter
Re: Is Kell Brook the new Antonio Margarito?
I don't know how a guy can sustain injury like that and not have it in the back of his mind. But in fairness that has to go for anyone previously badly sparked out or a jaw shattered. But Brook is no Margarito at this point. He can actually box and compete with top champions etc. Margarito needed a corner think tank to save face :-X and escape his last fight with a shady 'W'.

True, it must play on his mind and at the top level that can not be a positive thing to carry in the ring.

Better to be a cheater than a quitter. Margarito always fought to the finish because he was a warrrior.

Except when he was beat around by Jones in the 7th of last fight and stayed on his stool with little desire to 'warrior on' from a controlled cut once all officials involved appeared to tell him he was up. Looked like he opted out to me.

He’s old and well past his prime. Brook quit twice in world title fights at home. Margarito knocked out Sergio Martinez, Kermit Cintron and Miguel Cotto (all in their primes and all undefeated) Brook isn’t fit to lace his gloves.

No, it isn't. On that basis you prefer how Margarito cheated over how Cotto 'quit'. Sick puppy.

You think it's better to endanger the life of another rather than conserve your own health?

Margarito is a cunt.
Kell Brook is not.
