Margarito kos Johnson in 1, gets laughed at. Williams kos Kolle in 1 and is praised

[Texanballer]

Antonio Margarito went in against Golden Johnson. A fringe level fighter who has actually beaten decent competition such as Oscar Diaz, Freddy Hernandez, and Juan Lazcano, among others. Margarito goes in, makes him look silly in 1 round and people mock Margarito for beating up some inferior fighter.

Paul Williams goes into this fight against a complete Bum who has only fought Andy Ward and no other noteworthy opponents. Williams stops him in 1 round and everyone praises Williams, thinks he is the best, and Tommy hearns comparison are unleashed

Margarito's opponent's name didn't really help him.

Williams moved up in weight, Margarito didn't. Although, I did make this comparrison in my head earlier

[AntonTheMeh]

his name was the reason why........

I think Williams is praised because he took on a legit 160 pounder and KO's him the first round. Johnson was OLD and at 147.

[thiefery]

I see your point. Williams is the fighter of the moment after last night. I still think Margs can beat him when they fight next year

[ИATAS]

well obviously it's because Paul Williams jumped from 147 to 160. Some people are just impressed at how he looked at that weight, that's all. Not to hard to figure out.

No kidding, and Margarito was coming off of a hard fought loss, where you would expect someone to take an easier fight. Williams was coming off of winning his title back, is too lazy to make weight and defend this title, fights some clubfighter two weights higher and yet somehow avoids the same criticism?

[Derranged]

Williams >>>> Margarito regardless.

LOL, come on now be fair. Williams tried to land a fight with a number of people before taking this fight.
