All these Margarito lovers are out of their minds. The guy lost to Daniel Santos.
Santos is not a terrible fighter, but he isn't exactly a world class fighter. He's mediocre at best.
World class fighters (like some people think that Margarito is) do not lose to guys like Daniel Santos while they are in their supposed prime.
What's most funny about the Margarito lovers, is that before the Williams fight these same people were rambling on about how Paul Williams was just a prospect and hadn't done anything to deserve a shot at the great Antonio Margarito. Williams soundly beats Margarito and now these same people are saying that Williams is a world class fighter and Margarito put on a championship performance but lost to the future of the welterweight division. Face it, Margarito lost to a prospect (a pretty good one, though) Margarito was never a "champion," because he never fought a champion to get his WBO belt, he fought for it in a title eliminator. He defended it once against a decent opponent (Clottey) who was well on his way to beating Margarito before he broke his hand on Margarito's face (see Gamo, you can say that Clottey was beating Baldomir until the fight was stopped but it's the same thing as saying that Clottey was beating Margarito until he broke his hand on Colttey's face, so I guess you're theory works against you too...... unless you realize that it's more important who actually WON the fight)
As far as his big win over Cintron...............
If Cintron is so great, how come Judah is STILL ranked higher than him in the welterweight division
And Gamo, you're 115-113 scoring of the Williams fight is just as absurd as your thinking that Margarito is a world class fighter and only exposes how extremely biased you are when it comes to Margarito. That's almost as bad as the scoring in the Steve Forbes robbery.
