After what Wright did to Trinidad, I question how much he really has left but any fighter who goes to war with him definitely needs to possibly reconsider their strategy. From what I have heard and seen, Margarito is a fighter who will press and exchange with Tito. This could work out very well in Trinidad's favor if Antonio is not able to find an answer for the big left hook; however there is the possibility of Trinidad not being able to make weight. De la Hoya seemed doubtful that Trinidad could even make 154 for a possible rematch. How weakened would he be trying to cut down to welterweight to get at Antonio Margarito? Really I would like to see Margarito take on Ricky Hatton, Jose Luis Castillo or (even though it looks like it will never take place) Floyd Mayweather Jr.
