TEN years after, Antonio Margarito revealed he had one big regret as far as his boxing career is concerned. And it involves Filipino ring legend Manny Pacquiao. Looking back, the now retired Mexican fighter said he should have followed the advice of his corner to stop his November 13, 2010 match with Pacquiao for the World Boxing Council (WBC) light-middleweight championship at the Cowboy Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Margarito, 42, was beaten black and blue by Pacquiao for 12 full rounds and lost by unanimous decision. He ended up with a badly-bruised face and a fractured orbital bone in his right eye. Margarito’s corner led by trainer Robert Garcia wanted to throw in the towel late in the fight, but the 5-foot-11 Mexican refused. “The truth was they (corner) mentioned that to me when I went back to the corner, that (my face) was very bad. And I told them not to stop the fight,” said Margarito in an interview by ESPN Deportes over the weekend. “But I was really wrong.” Enjoying a distinct advantage in height (five inches taller) and weight, Margarito appeared a mismatch for the 5-foot-6 Pacquiao, who fought as a junior middleweight for the first time under the catch-weight of 150 pounds. Being the bigger fighter, Margarito thought he could impose his size against the only man in boxing to win eight world titles in as many weight classes. Pacquiao proved him wrong. #boxing #boxingvideos #boxingnews #boxingtraining #boxinglife #boxingworkout #sports #sportsnews #action #actionsports #actionfigures #bestmoments #best #highlight #highlights #fight #fighting #fightscene #fighter #punch #punching
