    Everytime someone mentions Margo I laugh my ass off. Margo is tailor made for PBF. He would shut him out and give him a boxing lesson. Margo lacks the handspeed, jab, defense and footspeed needed to beat PBF.

    Exactly man Margo is soooo slow, and he's one of the most overrated fighters in recent times. Floyd probably has more difficulty doing mitt work with Roger than he would have schooling a a guy like Margarito.

    If Margarito had a weaker chin, I could see the fight turning out like Corrales

    He was supposed to have an album called the "Tha Truth" dropping for like the last 6months, but still no word on if or when it actually coming. He dropped a new mixtape a couple months ago though.

    winky, hearns, forrest could all outbox him easy. someone tall with decent speed and a really good jab

    if you cant outbox him you can try to outwork him, im not convinced on that though.

    He's gotten in the ring with plenty of them but you never give him any credit anyway just like Mosley who you said he would never fight. When he does and shuts him out you say Mosley's shot.:deal

    It's not exactly Pac's style on it's own that can beat Floyd. It's the combination of Pac's style, blinding speed, power, volume of punches, footwork, strong chin/ability to take punches, and stamina for 12 rounds, that can beat Floyd.

    Pac doesn't have the reach, the jab, the defense or the ring IQ to beat PBF. PBF would adjust to him and shut him out the rest of the way. PBF is too complete for Pac.:deal

    I can't wait for Floyd's "vacation" to end so he can show us. Pac, with his acceptance to do a reasonable random blood test, and the whole world, is waiting.

    :good good time line.

    floyd said he was offered 6 million to fight margarito but fought someone else for 8 million...i think it was mitchell or baldomir.

    Why would the "vacation" end? He tried to make the fight,and they couldn't reach an agreement on the drug testing.
