As I was watching the fight's last couple of rounds I was saying this too. I think it is very possible that Margarito took career damaging punishment in that fight. If I was someone near him I would advise him to ride off into the sunset and enjoy his riches in the life after boxing. Trinidad ruined David Reid and severely damaged Fernando Vargas. I was seeing the same kind of thing as Mosley was landing hard shot after hard shot. His chin is now broken. I really felt bad for Margarito because his corner wanted to throw in the towel but his pride let him go out like that. I think there are some good times to throw in the towel that are honorable. It was not like DLH quitting on the stool. DLH was just flat, was getting beat to the punch, only was getting marked up but was never noticeably hurt. The damage Margarito was taking was getting scary and dangerous. That was pure punishment, the kind that ruins.
