after everyone saying how he isnt mentally tough enough and is a decent champion unless hes in with margarito, shouldnt cintron get respect for even going in against him again. he could have fought williams but actually didnt tske tyhe fight so he could fight tony as far as i am aware...
he seems to be critisized alot but imo deserves the utmost respect for going in against a man who destroyed him first time round
opinons?
He should be respected for taking on the tornado again, but I think its clear after watching him crumble again, that Cintron is mentally weak. Even before the body shot, you could tell that he did not want to be there.
I agree with Lance Uppercut , he really don't want be there again , no make sense , for what? , he don't have nothing more to get with Margarito , he is psychologically F**** Up , he going remember that for rest of his life , so i hope that this don't affect him like happened to a great boxer " Fernando Vargas " , some times the most boxers cant improve a damn beat , imagine 2 Damn Beat.............:cool:

I give him respect for getting back in with Tony. It only took him 3 years to do it; about time.
He still wanted out of there by the end of the 3rd round. Can't take what he dishes out; nowhere near it.
Cintron fought Margarito again because it was the quickest way for him (if he had won) to get a big payday in a PPV fight against Cotto.
I give THE FROG big respect for trying to reverse his only loss , but styles make fights and a rock chinned threshing machine is the last thing a frigile puncher needs.
In todays multi title sport THE FROG can win another championship , just wont ever beat Margarito.
I give him respect, but I expected more of the same.
Margarito just isn't the guy who you want to depend on your power with. He'll just walk through it.
I really don't think Cintron is done though. He still has the heaviest hands in the welter's and Margarito just has rocks in his jaw. Most people would fall if not be K.O.'ed with clean right hand shots like that in the first couple of rounds.
I basically agree with all the posts here, except the paycheck one.
I respect Cintron's willingness to go back in against Margarito. He gave it his all, but Margarito's just got his number. And yeah, he was starting to look like a beaten fighter when his bombs failed to stop, or even stun Tony. The punch that KO'd him was a devastating body shot... no shame in that. Is he done? Probably not. He can still beat a lot of the top WW's out there. Just not Margarito.
i don't really like cintron but i have to respect him. he took that fight knowing he was most likely going to lose but tried to get a victory.
Mad respect for him, I said this elsewhere I think Cintron can bounce back from this. Margaritos style is just bad for him.
But honestly I think he hits anyone with those shots that he hit Margarito with and he knocks them out.
Just curious to see how Cotto would react to Cintrons bombs? Actualy to any power puncher ! Which punching threat has he fought?Quote:

It's the same reason Margarito was in the ring last weekend.... because he knew if he won he'd get a big fight against Cotto.
Excellent post,totally agree. I've said it time and time again,Kermit is no bum,let him fight Judah,Clottey etc and he'll show it.Quote:
