Antonio Margarito and Carson Jones: it gets three stars.
The former Wbo, Ibf and Wba Ww champion Antonio Margarito entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 40-8-0 (27 knockouts) but he is not ranked as he hasn’t fought since August 13, 2016 when he defeated Ramon Alvarez (=Alvarez vs Margarito). He had suffered two consecutive losses between 2010 and 2011, against Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto (4-stars fight, Cotto vs Margarito 2) but then he had beat Jorge Paez Jr in 2016 (=Margarito vs Paez Jr).
His opponent, Carson Jones, has an official record of 40-11-3 (30 KOs=75%) and he entered as the No.26 super welterweight in the world. He lost the rematch with Brian Rose in 2015 (=Jones vs Rose 2) but then he has won three consecutive fights defeating Ben Hall in his last one.

Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2016-03-05, amazing performance by both boxers:
Antonio Margarito vs Jorge Paez Jr is very close to get
four stars!

Review: 2011-12-03, high pace, tough and exciting, the second fight between Miguel Angel Cotto and Antonio Margarito gets four stars (as their first fight). Miguel Angel Cotto (36-2-0) entered as the No.2 light middleweight in the world while Antonio Margarito (38-7-0) is not ranked as he doesn’t fight since November 13, 2010 (against Manny Pacquiao). Cotto vs Margarito 2 is valid for the WBA Super World light middleweight title (in their first fight Margarito defeated Cotto by TKO – July 26, 2008). Watch the video!
Review: 2009-01-24, Antonio Margarito (37-5-0) had won, the previous year, the WBA World welterweight title against Miguel Angel Cotto (one of the best boxing fights of 2008) and he had to defend his title against Shane Mosley (45 -5-0), who was almost 38 years old and had just lost against Cotto in 2007, then, in theory, Margarito would win against “Sugar” Shane. But in front of 20.820 people (largest crowd ever to see an event at the Staples Center of Los Angeles) Shane Mosley dominated a really exciting fight versus Antonio Margarito, forcing the Mexican at his first knockout defeat. (Before the fight, Officials found Margarito with illegal hand-wraps and four days after the fight Margarito and his trainer had their licenses temporarily suspended). Watch the video!
Review: 2008-07-26, Cotto vs Margarito was one of the most exciting fights of 2008. Miguel Angel Cotto (32-0-0) was the favorite because he was still undefeated and defending for the fifth time his WBA World welterweight title. But Antonio Margarito (36-5-0) has always been one of those boxers who all try to avoid, he is a really tough fighter who hits very hard and who absorb any blow, in fact he had never suffered a defeat by ko (only Shane Mosley will win Margarito by ko, but in 2009). Margarito knocked down Cotto two times in the eleventh round and Cotto’s corner stopped the fight. (Wikipedia: Cotto’s loss to Margarito has since come under suspicion due to Margarito’s subsequent attempted use of illegal hand-wraps in a fight against Shane Mosley). Watch the video!
