    Default My honest opinion on Tony

    I know I come across as a hater, but I do recognize, even though I have never admitted it until now, that he is a decent fighter. Sure he doesn't have good speed or technique, but he has crazy stamina, he knows how to land punches, and he throws good combinations. In order to land punches with slow hands that shows timing, and determination which he has in bundles. He obviously isn't a bad fighter or he wouldn't have come back so strong against CLottey or Williams. The one thing I could see is him and Cotto having a tough war at the begining, but Cotto clearly outboxing him, and then as the fight wears on Cotto not being able to keep up with the relentless Tony, but I don't think that will happen, but it could. I never felt he deserved a fight with Mayweather until he fought a Cotto or ODLH or Mosley so if he wins next Saturday I still won't like him, but I will respect him for being tough, and never giving up on himself.

    I hope Margarito will win. I dont think he will, but I hope so. But this isn't like the Gatti-Mayweather hope.........Tony has a very legitimate chance.

    I think Margarito takes this inside the distance....It might be called a huge upset but I prefer calling It a huge over sight

    I really do not undersatnd how people still doubt Tony, The worst thing that can be said about him is he can be lazy....Tony is not a master boxer in anyway but then again there are very few,,,and I stress very few that fit that catagory...Tony has the tendency to lay back and not kick it in till later in bouts EG The Williams fight and the Clotty bouts...

    When he does get going though he is more then most can handle...The power in his punches along with the stamina and fact he has a well proven and maybe one of the best chins in the business right now....

    There are about a half dozen guys in the 147 and 154lb divisions that I would pick to outbox Tony but I can not name 1 I would pick that can stand up and out right beat him in a fight...
