~Spicolis Rd. by Rd. of Margarito vs.Cintron II & Cotto vs.Gomez~

[Spicoli]

Damn, Cintron better be glad he won't be fighting Cotto. He would have already quit with the punishment he's dishing out to Gomez. Gomez got heart; I'll give him that.

You hear all those instuctions ?? Gomez is just hearing "Hot shower and mercy" right now

round 4

sign the fight already...Margarito/cotto -cotto is looking for a high light reel ko-strong jab from cotto-cotto switches lefty....man thats in your face-gomez makes cintron look like a tough guy taken this beating with moxie-three punch from cotto-need a corona

[Spicoli]

round 2 ....this is taking 110 seconds to post..slllooowww

Gomez marked up on right eye-cotto is picking his spots-gomes jab is weak and right is wide-exchange on inside gomez lands and cotto clips him...down gos gomez from...something-Gomez is looking like reality is upon him-KD looked like legit right to body

[Deanrw]

total mismatch so far

[DaxxKahn]

Like I said I pick Cotto and I am a fan of his big but was hoping Gomez made a decent showing of himself...This is a beating...

Just my input here on both of the fights:

Cintron needs to go back to the drawing board and figure out something here. Cintrons good but it just so happens that Margaritos style is all too wrong for him. I think with the right mind set and training Cintron can bounce back.

As for Margarito what can I say man... El Gamo, myself and a couple of others can be proud to say that we are few and selected people here who have always believed that Margarito would be a handful for anyone. We never claimed him as great or the most athletic all we would say is he's got as good of a chance as anyone.
Someone help me out here who was the poster that would always relate to Margarito as just a "journeyman" Margarito seems to have really learned a lot from the Williams loss.


Gomez has no shame, I mean the people who were on here talking about upsets and Gomez having a chance or Gomez wining rounds were just talking out of their ass. If you couldn't see Gomez was outclassed then you need to rethink the way you view fighters. The margin between Gomez and Cotto was fucken huge. Tackie and SSM are fucken worlds apart. I would have Gomez take a short recess and then bounce back late this year Oct./Nov. I would like to see Gomez face off against any of these guys:

Isaac Hlatswayo
Soto Karass (How would you like that Gamo?)
Delvin Rodriguez
Sebastian Lujan
Jesse Feliciano


As for Cotto well what can I say, thats my man. And the more I see him in the ring the more I see him grow as a fighter. It'll be tough cause I like both Margarito and Cotto I've rooted for both for years and if they face off wow!!!
I gotta say I think Cotto wins by Decision. It will a tough fight all the way through but I think Cotto ability to trade and box will be the deciding factor.

Wow! Margarito took those two vicious right hands that would of laid just about anybody out, and he just smiled a genuine smile at Cintron as if to say, "Thanks that was nice!" His performance makes it seem like he just didn't choose the right game plan or was just having a really off night against Williams.

One of the most common and often devastating mistakes fighters make is to look past or underestimate their opponents, but Cotto so outclassed and was so supremely confident that it was almost as if he was having a casual workout in the gym on some equipment!

How could the announcers not see that body shot that put Gomez down in the 2nd? They didn't even seem like they bothered to look at the replay.

What an awesome prelude these two created for their show down!

It was funny when Stewart was asked about Cintron fighting Gomez and he was like, "Yeah they could, but whatever... Let's see Cotto/Margarito!"

That is a super post. Really really super. I've been a fan and defended Tony and Cotto more than anyone except you,you've ben a fan for longer and shows you know your stuff

I totally agree,I never said Tony was the best ever or anything like that but I honestly believe that he has the desire and style to give anyone at WW a tough fight and he proved it. Cintron was doing well from range, and Tony just adjusted,used head movement and a jab to get inside and throw bombs. He threw 133 punches in round,that is INSANE!!! All of them look solid

I also agree that Kermit can go back to the drawing board. Listen,just because Antonio Margarito can walk through your shots doesn't mean everyone else at the weight can and DOES NOT mean you're a bum. People can say what they like about Cintron but very very few fighters at WW would have been willing to walk through what Tony did to get inside and win. Kermit has deadly power.

Yeah and I feel FULLY vindicated: there have been SOOOOOOO many times in the past when Tony has been called a bumloser,journeyman,what has he done etc. Not bad for 2 time world champ and 7/8 RING top 10 fighters he's beaten hey?

Oh,I'd love to see a Gomez v Soto Karass fight but Soto would beat his ass from round 1 to 12. Good posting.

Good stuff Gamo. I sent some Rep. your way.
How I wish frozen and Starr were still here...

As for Karass vs. Gomez, I don't know man I think Gomez can give him a good run. It would be interesting to see.
