Just curious Daxx; how do you see a rematch of Cintron/Margarito going?
I figured you'd say that and I agree with most of what you said. Styles definately make fights and though I don't see PW being the reincarnation of SRR or anything, he is a talent to be respected. Alot of it is his sheer physical stature, coupled with high workrate. As far as Tony, it was obvious and should definately be to Tony that he waited way too long to engage in their fight, and misjudged the conditioning of PW. As far as Cintron; maybe I'm too harsh on him but I just don't like the way he flat out quit with Tony, and until I see him go tooth and nail into the deep end of the pool, I will never put faith in him with the elite guys that he will face soon. Cotto will ruin him if he doesn't get put to sleep in the 1st few rounds, and Tony will always have that mental edge hanging over Cintron IMO. I was a big fan of Cintron but the night he curred out with Tony I was furious, even though I had always liked Tony more. Apologies for rambling on

Your going to think I am crazy but I think Margarito wins again but Cintron will not fold like the first fight....Tony is a much better fighter then Cintron or Williams...the reason Margarito lost to Williams is the fact he waited until the 5th or so round to get in the fight.....A mistake that cost Hopkins his MW title....Margarito is a guy that does not repeat the same mistakes twice....

Its like saying Taylor is better then Hopkins...then saying Pavlik is better then Hopkins because he beat Taylor so he would beat Bernard....

Cintron though has learned a valuble lesson from the AM loss and knows enough to avoid those same mistake we have to remember one thing.....Williams throws a lot and is fairly accurate but he has no power....Williams IMO would not be able to hold off Cintron once the time came where Kermit started to use his power advantage....

Everyone is taking too much away from Cintron for the loss to Margarito and giving Williams too much credit.....Styles make fights and without the power to hold off a guy who bangs like Cintron who may not box as well as Williams but again is no average Joe Shmoe....

Not at all and you are dead on for the most part....I am not taking anything away from Williams IMO he is a quality guy who will continue to go far but again my point was that and not only you but many people took too much away from Cintron for the loss to Tony.....Many writers even HBO guys said Cintron was more then likely done as a top fighter in his weight class and then what happens? He becomes IBF champ within a year.....And again like I said Williams did not beat Margarito Margarito beat Margarito....He is not the only long term title holder to make that mistake....


Actually the fight I would personally like to see is Cintron Vs Cotto....I go with Miguel but man the power that both guys would throw!!!!...It would be a smoker while it lasted
