For Brook to truly become Margarito he needs to start applying plaster of Paris to his hands.

@GaMo please explain how ending a fight after suffering a second fractured eye socket and fearing for your eyesight equates to quitting?
The dude was protecting his eye aight he knew what injury he had sustained and didn't want to run the risk of permanent blindness so he ended the fight which he knew was already beyond his reach.
Please explain what he should have done, he could have gone the distance, been beat and ended up permanently blind in one eye and having to retire from the sport prematurely, is that what you are after?
Brook is coming back in December at 154.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
There seems to be this preconception (from Brook and his mob) that he's going to set the World alight at 154lbs. Even at the top end of the British pile, I'm not sure he ploughs through Williams or Smith.

In short, no.
Brook sustained broken orbital bones around and of the eye socket. They doctors assessed the damage and repaired the damage (probably with titanium plates-- as bone tends to graft to titanium- which is why they use it for dental implants). I write another post on one of the other threads where the subject comes up. There are nhl enforced that had the same injuries and continued their careers getting punched in the face by 6'8 240 pounders.
Margarito seems to have sustained nerve damage. Hence the glass eye melting face look he sports. 'Cheato's ability to take abuse is more integral to his style of fighting than brook. Aside from the last two fights where he sustained the damage Brooke's been able to avoid sustaining a large amount of punishment due to his use of angles and in and out fighting and rolling with punches. Brooke still has a level of skill that can nick him a victory around many of the fighters near his weight. 'Cheato at this point is burned out pug who's fighting on heart/insanity at this point for money. I think he knows that theres no glory that will change peoples opinion of him. The eye could very likely get worse.
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

No it's not it's a boxing match. Do you not even understand the fundamentals ? If it was just a fight with the sole aim of hurting the other person, you would bring a cricket/baseball bat, and take the guys knees out before smacking him around the head. There are only three r's in Warrior and one in Wanker. Wanker.
