3 Things 1.DLH had way more size, strength, skill, and speed to go with his pressure than Margo could ever hope to bring. 2. PBF wouldn't get caught with all the stuff Cotto got hit with nor would he run out of gas. 3. PBF has already proven himself to be much better defensively as well as way more durable, Cotto has been hurt to many times to count.
I jsut dont see FLoyd neutralizing Margs with his punches I think Margs takes a bottle of tapatio in the ring and sprinkles it on floyds punches before he eats them and keeps going forward I jsut dont think FLoyds brittle hands have enough pop to keep Margs at bay or KO him I think the shots Cotto landed on Margs would have KO'd Hatton but did nothing to Margs
Cotto took the fight when no one else would. Margo was just to strong for Cotto. Floyd retired to avoid Margo.
DLH has more size and strength than Margs? DLH is a boxer he hardly puts pressure on his opponents he has great counter work and a great jab but he is nothing like Margs what fighters has he got on the ropes for a full 12 rounds preety much besides Floyd even little Mos didnt fight off the ropes vs DLH
Check the past stats,Mayweather doesnt take many shots,he's difficult to hit.Why should he take punishment,his strategy is simple,hit and not get hit. I havent checked the official Cotto stats but Floyd is tougher than Cotto.DelaHoya landed a very good shot at Floyd @ 154 and Floyd didnt flinch.
Mayweather would make Margarito feel uncomfortable ... he's very fast and very smart (quick thinking in the ring) he ties Margarito up ... ala Hatton and offset his attack. I never seen Margarito make adjustments out of the fights i've seen of him ... he consistantly keeps coming and swinging. There's no technique in what he does ... he's "straight up and down, no special effects" Mayweather fights good in any part of the ring and there isn't anything that Mayweather can't do. He doesn't take the same punishment Cotto took because he's faster than both fighters, more skilled, more schooled, and in better condition. You normally expect Mayweather to go the distance ... Margarito ususally attempts to wear his opponents down but Mayweather is conditioned to go 20 rounds ... His training regimine prepares him for whatever his opponents brings to him ... he's a gym rat ... and 100% focused on boxing ... he's training while most fighters are awake and while they're sleeping. He eats, drinks, and sleeps the sport ... I'm sure he's hoping Margarito keeps it going and is preparing for him right now.
Uhm... First off FM would not have tooken HALF of the punishment MC took in that fight. FM would slip his shots and get him in a position to commite from his punches and slip out,easy,all night long. That is just Knowing FM footwork and how he uses the ring. If MC was slipping and dogding AM punches FM would do that ten times more and would hit him with that straight right over the shoulder of AM as hes turning. That is trademark Mayweather boxing. Also all that walking forward that AM was doing in the fight and MC was conncting with them jabs flush, FM would have a feild day with AM's forehead with that straight right hand that he destroys oppents with..ala hatton,gatti,DLH etc. That also knocks off the balance and the rythm of the fighters which makes them reset and gives FM more time to move around. The only reason he stood there and banged with DLH a little was to prove to critics he could and would take shots from bigger opponents.
How can you say that ... you told me you were a wushu fighter ... everytime you fight that says alot about you as a man ... this man has stepped into the ring 20 times in championship fights against ump teen champions ... thats balls man. I would think you being a fighter you would know that, but maybe you were just telling me a tale. Fighting for sport or fighting for a living takes heart and balls ... to know that you're going to get hit and you have to hit back and having the nerve to do it all your life ... gives you big balls of steel.
Floyd didnt choose to lay on the ropes vs DLH he couldnt handle DLH weak pressure form a bigger man DLH is the biggest man Floyd has ever fought and DLH made the fight close and made FLoyd fight off the ropes Margs puts 10 times the pressure DLH doesn and lands many more shots I think Cotto lands harder shots than Floyd yes Cotto doesnt slip and dip but his hard counter punching makes up for it If Mayweather running and slipping punches enough to win a fiight? Anf if he whole gameplan is to run and not to go hit why even fight?
