    his chin wasn't really an issue until he moved out of the welter weight class.

    I don't know it Hearns would ko Margarito but I definitely think he could stop him by tko. If not then by UD.

    Margo may have a good chin but he is very easy to find. Someone that easy to hit does not last long with hearns.


    Margo isnt walking through Hearn's shots like he did with Cotto. Hagler may have been able to but remember not only is Hagler larger than Margo but also Hearns broke his right hand early in that fight.

    Hearns may have been stopped several times in his career but they were always by ATG's or by larger guys. In a brawl, Hearn's speed and reach ensure he is outlanding Margo and his power is enough to do him in no doubt.

    Its you guys fault..."cotto was a bum and overated" yet margo beat him and he is the ww king? I would think you guys should let him avenge Williams before you make him out a legend comic book hero with the steel chin...Last I heard marvel was making a Margarito comic book called "THE CHIN" but then someone sent them the Santos fight and the comic was cancelled...lol

    and i aint even saying margo would beat him, but come one man...ko in 3 :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

    kermit is a murderous puncher and margo ****en laughed and smiled at him.....cotto is the same way, but throws better punches, and again, sat there and took it.....

    maybe his leaky defense would end up getting the best of him, but remember, MARGO HAS HANDS TOO...

    I think 3 is a little soon myself. Although, I must say, that Hearns would land early and often. Real early. Real often.

    #1 Kermit isn't as hard-hitting as he gets credit for IMHO.
    #2 Cotto wasn't punching with full leverage as he normally does.
    #3 Paul wasn't even thinking about sitting down on his punches.

    I think it's tough for anyone to say Margo could go past 9 rounds, but I also wouldn't say anything earlier than 6.

    when did the hittman every fight a guy like margo...that would throw from all angles, all power shots, and unlike many other brawlers, invest in a nice uppercut, and body work....

    like i said, ya'll act as if tommy would be hitting a heavy bag....

    Other than against that Golden Johnson fool, Margo has been NOTHING but a heavy bag in the first 5 rounds or so. And that is what I think would be his demise.:good

    Again, I never said he would go down in 3. But if you're trying to convince me that Margo would be able to walk through his punches, 5 at a time, to deliver one or two... then you are wasting your breath.:-(

    And now you're saying Hearns never fought anyone as good as Margarito?:nut
