I fancy Margarito in this fight. I'd like to see him win and get back in the mix.

First of all, Margarito never fought a champion to get his precious WBO (which back then was a total garbage belt anyways.... it still kinda is.) "championship," belt.

Second of all, look at his defenses of that "championship." Not exactly a who's who of the welterweight division

And if Cintron is so highly regarded, how come he's still ranked behind Judah, (who hasn't won a meaningful fight in a while......... but will soon be champion again..... wait and see, haters) on the ring welterweight rankings?


Also, don't forget that Clottey was dominating that fight until he broke his hand on Margarito's face. Margarito (Bob Arum) has been avoiding that rematch like the plague.


A victory for Margarito means absolutely nothing because I could fight Golden Johnson myself in 2 hours and win by a brutal knockout.
Sorry frozen,but that comment past up obnoxious and bloated about an hour ago and is now nearing Insane.Margarito will come back strong and force "rue paul" williams In a rematch for victory........Oh and IMO of course.so clottey broke his hand,so what,Ive seen FIGHTERS pull out victorys with broken collarbones,Brokenjaws,ribs,Both eyes shut..ETC.and that just 1 Gatti fight .Kidding.Clottey is a talent but He Lost, Margarito won Period.
Rue Paul "Williams", lmmfao. CC for that one. I thought Clottey was putting it down on Tony too until he broke his hand, but like you said, people have won fights on worse than that, and Tony won pure and simple. I'm a huge Margarito fan and look forward to his future, especially a rematch with Mrs. Rue, lol.
