Why should I believe that Margarito was drained for the Mosley fight?

[warp1432]

First off, cong**** to Manny Pacquiao. His performance wasn't shocking, but he still looked very good. His hand speed is always fun to watch and I give Manny for his win.

This thread has to do Margarito's camp crying about being weight drained. You're telling me, that only 6 months after his best win that all Margarito is drained at Welterweight.

The fight was signed on November 24th, 2008 and the fight was January 29th, 2009. That gives Margarito a full good 2 months to lose weight. He also says that he made weight easily:

Mosley went away to lose those two-tenths of a pound. Meanwhile, Antonio Margarito weighed in at a surprisingly light 145.8.

"I always make weight easily. It's his job to make weight. It's his problem," said Margarito.

Margarito weighed in at a light 145 pounds. How did someone two pounds under the limit struggle so badly to make it? (hint: he didn't)





Here is Margarito for both the Cotto and Mosley fights. He doesn't look that different in each of them.

Margarito has lied in the past at first about the wraps and his refusal in admitting that he made a mistake. He tried to say that the video was edited when it clearly shows Margarito making fun of Roach. Why am I supposed to believe him that he was drained.

He got his ass kicked plain and simple.

It sounds plausible to me.

Marg's fighting weight against Mosley was a lot less than 165 though.

Mosley was also around the same size and Margarito's focus was shattered after getting caught red handed with plaster in his gloves.

The Margarito that fought Pac was better trained and more comfortable with his weight.

While both wins are impressive, I say that the Marg that fought Pac was more game than the one who fought Mosley.

U shouldn't,certain type of fight fans must find a way to try & discredit the most dominant performance against Margarito!!Therefore weight drain comes into play!!Mosley destroyed Margarito 1st & utterly when Margarito was a better fighter too!!

Thats the truth right there

[Bastian Loc]

Because its true and its already been widely reported by people on this site and others that he came into camp at almost 200 pounds.

He also didn't make fun of Parkinsons, he just said Roach was scared. Rios made fun of Roach.

You don't care about that though cuz' you're just a flaming little faggot who likes to make shit up, like Tony lying about wraps.



Get fucked.

[Bastian Loc]

Margarito didn't even wanna fight Mosley, he almost pulled out at some point in December until HBO forked over more money for the fight.

But you dont know that either, because you don't know shit in general.

Snotnose.

5lbs difference

[PEBBLES!]

Plasterito is a fucking lying ****.


Fuck this hydroxycut using faggot.


He was not weight drained and its just a fucking lame ass excuse.


He got fucking creamed by Mosley and his delusional fan boys are making excuses.

Fuck off.

5lbs difference

That's not "a lot less" than 165.Especially considering that was a fight with a 147 pound limit.
