    Antonio Margarito is a scaled up Castillo.

    Floyd is a natural 130 he can't beat every Welterweight, when fighters move up in weight they are known to be selective.

    floyd lands 50% of punches on guys who have a form of defense. imagine what hed rack on up margarito face first style.

    margs only chance is to stop floyd and im sorry but floyds to smart and quick on his feet to get trapped for long enough for that to happen. marg does not possess 1 punch power so im not sure how anyone thinks he stands a chance

    Mayweather is smaller than Tony Margs, but you're underestimating Mayweather's size.

    If Mayweather was a natural 130 pounder he wouldn't have outgrown the division at only 24 years old.

    Why are people talking about Margarito the cheat, the plaster burrito? Floyd wipes his ass on Margarito.

    Margarito was a bum who lost to every elite fighter that he faced.

    Cotto outboxed Margarito for 9 rounds.. What on earth do people think Floyd would do to him? Floyd doesn't have to keep Margarito off of him.. He can just outbox him all fight lol. He won't gas like Cotto

    Mayweather is a natural 130 fighter, he didn't outgrow anything...he simply moved into phase-2 of his career to make the big money fights.


    Not agreeing with growing out of the weight (effectively), but the 55% of Floyd Mayweather fights were in 130

    Margarito was capable to do serious damage to Undefeated Cotto, Undefeated Sergio Martinez because he was a Big natural Welterweight with an iron chin & extreme high volume punching

    Don't take this as an insult...Its just facts, those posts are always based on stats.

    Very Few HOF have 2 wins over 2 Undefeated (HOF) :smoke

    • Undefeated Sergio Martinez (HOF)
    • Undefeated Miguel Cotto (HOF)
