    Yes. Marciano probably would have eventually been beaten by Patterson or Liston and even Clay.

    Probably.But he didn't.Good for him,The Rock wa sawesome.The guy at The Contender that is from Brockton himself like Rocky also seems to have the same type of physical stature.Am interested to see him.

    He didn't in the first Castillo fight. And Margo is a lot like Castillo,but bigger and stronger.

    Nor in the DLH fight though he won Oscar made it a very close fight.

    Yup and laying on the ropes trying to counter would not be very smart against Margo.

    Is that why he vacated his WBO title?

    You make a good point but if Cotto can outbox Margo for most of the fight I know Mayweather can do better.

    Exactly, that only helps TOny win the fight, I mean Tonys game is to come forward and put you on the ropes, Floyd will be doing half of Tonys work for him.:good

    He didnt out box Margarito, the fight was a seasaw fight, it was back and fourth, he was able to win some rounds using smart boxing skills but he paid a price in each of those rounds.
    The fight was dead even at the time of stoppage so I wouldnt say Cotto was out boxing him

    In the first Cotto was having succes but in the later half Margo started to take over.

    YUp:good He would not be able to do that with Margo. In order for Floyd to win he would have to do something similar as to what DLH did to Tito(as long as he doesn't run for 4 rounds)
