question about martinez

[armin]

How the hell did margarito knock this dude out I mean he got hit by pavlik, took most of the punches just fine, got hit by a middleweight williams didn't seem to bothered, cintron known for having power hit him clean too...was he just a way different fighter 8 years ago, inexperienced, or an off night or god knows nothing is to low for marg....don't feel like looking for the fight at the moment on youtube or somewhere...

Well personally thats one of the reason's i thought Kelly Pavlik would win, but i underrated Sergio Martinez. He has improved and that was at Welterweight in 2000, if i was Sergio Martinez i'd have a rematch at 154 where Antonio Margarito isn't as effective.

Margarito won because he swarmed Martinez's body early. Martinez had not fully developed his footwork yet. It really is that simple.

Screw marg tho I hope no credible fighter gets in the ring with him....altho I could see why martinez would want to for the redemption factor.

Well I guess that answers my question killer, because I was dumbfounded for a minute...lol

Yeah, Pavlik and Margarito are both swarmers but their punches are very different, Pavlik is much stronger, but Margarito is much better at cutting off the ring.

Volume,maturity,styles.And I dont think Margarito has ever met a punch he didnt mind getting hit in the face with to land his own.

Yea i agree im not saying Sergio Martinez needs the fight, far from it actually. The world is his oyster at the moment, but im just saying if he wanted redemtpion. Then at 154 where Antonio Margarito has struggled in the past, would be the best bet for Sergio Martinez.
