    I've watched his fights with Burton and Corrales 10x combined, probably.

    Like Kirk, I have not done so lately.

    Margarito's iron chin would destroy Floyd's brittle hands thats why floyd is scared to fight him

    Floyd was busy making the biggest fight possible at that time.

    Can't fault him, the human punching bag is more known for his plaster of paris, than he is of his actual boxing career, some legacy. :lol:

    TBE is a big deal because he can talk smack and back it up.
    That is about the short of it.

    :patsch Just stop while you're ahead.

    Do you honestly expect people to take you seriously when you say something like that?

    **** you dude. I could give a **** that your entire purpose is to bash Floyd. Why don't you just take it a step further and go **** on Genaro's grave while you're at it?

    Genaro Hernandez was a good man, and a excellent champion, even if he wasn't an "ATG." The man does not deserve to have stupid little punks like you disparage his career.

    Like I said, I wish I could get my hands on you personally you little piece of ****.

    But this is wrong. Mayweather wouldn't need to exclusively use the shoulder roll for defense against Margarito.

    Everyone loves to point to the Cotto fight for Magarito, but they ignore the Clottey fight, which happened around the time Mayweather allegedly 'ducked' him.

    Watch Clottey use a simple high guard to flommox Margarito. Watch how often Clottey simply stepped/leaned back to avoid Margarito's attack. Watch how, after making Margo miss, Clottey stepped forward to land hard right hands (and this is a guy not known for his right hand at all) and left hooks.

    What makes you think Mayweather, with a better jab, longer reach, IMO stonger straight right hand, better ring IQ, better stamina, and more defensively responsible and a more diverse defense could not do the same thing over 12 rounds?

    Remember, this is a fight that Clottey (allegedly) hurt both of his hands and was, at times, actively looking for a way out. It is also a fight where Margarito supposedly threw over 1675 punches. And yet, two of the three press row scorers had Clottey either ahead or the fight as a draw going into the 11th round.

    But you want us to believe a prime Floyd Mayweather gets worn down and beat by a slow, wide puncher and plodder who missed over 1300 punches he threw at Josh Clottey?

    Come on, bruh.

    Floyd is Floyd, and he gets criticism. Whatever.

    What grinds my gears, is these little punks disparaging the career of a good man like Genaro Hernandez because they hate somebody else.

    Completely wrong and I'll say it again: I want to ***** slap that little punk for being so disrespectful to a good man and good champion. Genaro doesn't deserve that bull****.

    Manfredy, Corrales, Chavez, Castillo 1, Ndou, Gatti, Cotto.

    Most of the time I just watch highlights though.

    His baby-mamma would disagree.

    Seriously though, Mayweather has given some guys bad beatings.

    Perhaps BECAUSE he's a decent but not big puncher, the beating is bad, because the fight lasts longer and they take more hits.

    I know it's pointless since it can never be proven, but I would think Mayweather would do a lot of clinching to nullify Margarito's workrate. Mayweather is not a Ruiz, Hatton-type clincher but he does use clinches to his advantage. I could see Mayweather landing well timed shots before, after, or even during a Margarito combo and then promptly tying him up.

    It'd be dull to watch.
