    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 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.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    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.

    Cotto did quit against Margarito... that’s common knowledge isn’t it?

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

    IT’S A FIGHT! If you’re not trying to hurt the other person then you’re doing it wrong.

    In short, no.

    Brook sustained broken orbital bones around and of the eye socket. They doctors assessed the damage and repaired the damage (probably with titanium plates-- as bone tends to graft to titanium- which is why they use it for dental implants). I write another post on one of the other threads where the subject comes up. There are nhl enforced that had the same injuries and continued their careers getting punched in the face by 6'8 240 pounders.

    Margarito seems to have sustained nerve damage. Hence the glass eye melting face look he sports. 'Cheato's ability to take abuse is more integral to his style of fighting than brook. Aside from the last two fights where he sustained the damage Brooke's been able to avoid sustaining a large amount of punishment due to his use of angles and in and out fighting and rolling with punches. Brooke still has a level of skill that can nick him a victory around many of the fighters near his weight. 'Cheato at this point is burned out pug who's fighting on heart/insanity at this point for money. I think he knows that theres no glory that will change peoples opinion of him. The eye could very likely get worse.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    No it's not it's a boxing match. Do you not even understand the fundamentals ? If it was just a fight with the sole aim of hurting the other person, you would bring a cricket/baseball bat, and take the guys knees out before smacking him around the head. There are only three r's in Warrior and one in Wanker. Wanker.
