Better WW resume: FLoyd or Margo?

Cintron was more up and coming then prime and hasn't proven to be more then B level. Clottey was giving Margo all he could handle until he broke his hand and Clottey is B level as well. And he may have cheated vs Cintron, Clottey and Cotto.

 

Marg fought at welterweight for much longer than Floyd and has acheived less.

Margo- L-Santos, W-Lujan, W-Six Heads, W-Clottey, L-Paul Williams, W*-Cintron (x2), W*-Cotto, L-Mosley. Decent, but not all that great. Held the WBO belt for a considerable time, and the IBF and WBA belf briefly.

By the time Floyd got to WW he was pretty much a part time fighter and well beyond his natural weight class. So of course Marg is gonna have MORE names on his resume. Floyd did all of his work at 130 and 135 (briefly), by the time he was at 147 he was pretty much only involved in high profile fights based on his accomplishments at lower weights and P4P status, Marg had to earn his stripes.

 

You know, this is a terrible exagerration. Hitting air? :huh No one wil deny Floyd is faster then Cotto, but he's not SOO much faster that he avoids all. Every fighter Floyd has faced has been able to hit him.

Floyd's at his best when in his comfort zonie, and Margarito has a good way of getting guys out of their zone. He's undserrated at cutting off the ring, and lets not act like Floyd's the mover he used to be. Margarito would make Floyd fight, and that's something he has not had to do in near a decade.

 

Calling them B level really doesn't say anythying. Because the implication is that being B level means nothing. At least that's somewhat what the post of yours suggests, that you can just dismiss them as B.

The reports on Clottey's hand said bruise BTW.

 

Of course he wouldn't avoid all his punches. But like I stated Margarito relies on volume punching to break a guy down, he isn't going to hit Mayweather with that one shot that complete changes the whole fight. He is going to have to do it by the accumulation of punches. Mayweather focuses on making Margo miss which he is more then capable of doing since he is excellent at anticipating, had amazing reflexes and quickness at the time and Margo is slow as ****.

Margo doesn't have a plan B all Mayweather has to do is focus on limiting his punch out put and scoring pts which he will do as he isn't going to even think about knocking Margo out.

Margo will have some good moments but Mayweather is better at what he does then Margo is at what he does. Plus Mayweather can even fight inside while Margo can't fight outside.

 

Paper titles to me man. Winning those titles don't make you the man. If Ortiz beats Zaveck and Senchenko, does Ortiz become the 'man' at welterweight? I don't think so.

 

He was saying prime Cintron and Clottey like they accomplished anything of importance in there prime. They didn't I used the term B level to sum that up rather then say all that.

It still stopped Clottey from looking to throw it as much and changed the fight.

 

Don't post much but lately I've found myself debating on the legitimacy of guys like Margo an cottos resume so I figured id give my opinion to me Floyd has the better ww resume no question for one margarito has been at or around we since 1994 an didn't fight a notable ww til 2007 while outside of Marquez everyone of Floyd's ww opponents was at the time or was recently a champion in the division another note out of the known guys Margo has faught how many have proven to actually be good fighters Williams was recently exposed as well as cintron his best win was against cotto who has never even won a title off the actual champ I'm not going to act like Floyd has a great ww resume but its a lot betters than pol tend to give credit for

 

He doesn't need to hit with one shot. Floyd cannot focus on making Margarito miss w/o taking himself out as well. Floyd MUST punch back to win rounds. And the more he does, the more open he leaves himself.

:huh That's all Floyd has to do? How does he do it, limiting Margarito's punches. Cotto his him with everything, didn't slow Margarito down at all.

For someone as limited and slow as Margarito is called, I'd say he's pretty damn good at what he does. Mayweather would be ****ed more if he tried to fight close, his best bet would be to win boring pot shot filled fight hitting and moving. He could do that, but it would be ugly with plenty of boo birds going to Floyd.

 

it sounds like you added your own meaning to what he said.

As for Clottey, if you think he would have won w/o an injured hand, just say that (Don't know if yo0u thiknk that, but sounds like it). But we're talking about a guy who won a few early rounds vs. a guy who everyone knows is a slow starter. It's easy to just look at a hand injury and stop looking at any other possible factors. It's also careless to approach a sitatution that way.

 

Margaritos whole career is null and void. He is a ****ing cheat, he's overrated, end the T.S wanted to claim some weak category margarito has over Floyd. Pathetic. Without plaster, Margarito is a ****ing *****!!! His last two losses show this.

 

Floyd would beat Margarito to a pulp just like Pacquiao did.

 

Mayweather will have no problem having a low out put, and he will land first majority of the time beating Margo to the punch with the cleaner shots. Once the 10rd hits to Mayweather can even open up more as long as he didn't allow Margo to wear him out from the earlier rds. Mayweather will be able to score a lot of pts as well with his jab to the body.

Cotto problem is he doesn't have the power to keep Margo off him but most importantly doesn't have the reflexes or quickness to limit Margo's productivety. His best option was to tie up constantly like Mosley. Margo looks good on guys he can whale on. Mosley tied Margo up every chance he got thus stopping his ability to accumulate punches.

Margo is real good at what he does which is within his physique. Big, tall strong, iron chin. His physical traits make him good at what he deos just like most fighters. He just isn't better at what he does then Mayweather at what Mayweather does. Mayweather wouldn't be ****ed at fighting inside though Margo would get the edge there but Mayweather is clever enough at inside fighting to not get completely dominated. Margo on the other hand is a sitting duck on the outside.

It would be a boring fight as Mayweather would have to make it that way to win. He doesn't have the power to seriously hurt Margo so it is what it is, but he would get the win and thats all he would care about. Get the win now and look better another fight.

 

Margarito at WW, Floyd also wouldn't fight him at WW so Floyd probably agrees.

 

No, Cotto didn't have the power to keep Margarito off, and neither would Floyd. All you've really done here is sasy what you think Floyd would do. Pretty one sided for an analysis. Honestly, and I might be a dick for sayinbg this, but this post has too many specifics for it to be realistic. As if you know what will happen and how.
