Right firstly i want to discuss Antonio Margarito, there's no doubt in mind. Antonio Margarito had hardened wraps in quite a few of his fights, last night he showed no real power at all. And come nowhere close to stopping his opponent, nor could he bust him up. Despite hitting him with every punch in the book.
The positives are that Antonio Margarito's defense, had tightened up. And his handspeed looked a shade quicker. But now he's power has been exposed, i don't think he will be anywhere near as effective.
As for Kermit Cintron now im going to be a very small percentage here, but i think Kermit Cintron would of won. And before the fight i thought he had a good shot aswell.
He was outboxing Paul Williams in the first 3 rounds, and when Paul Williams tried to up the pace in the 4th round. Kermit Cintron greeted him with some nice solid hard counters.
Paul Williams wouldn't of been able to just walk him down, as i've said in other threads there is a reason he was more hesistant than usual. And thats because he's never been in with a puncher.
Well maybe except for Walter Dario Matthysse, but i think Kermit Cintron hits harder than him. Plus he never really had the skills to test his chin, like Kermit Cintron would of done.
Im still not sold on Paul Williams chin, he's been stunned by non punches like Martinez, Mitchell. So who knows how his chin would of held up.
