    Both men are of Mexican descent, about the same age, tall, long reach, orthodox stance, high workrate, capable of enduring punishment while pressing the fight, great chins and whatnot...

    Anyone here feels that the two men compare well (in whatever terms you see fit)? Who's the better boxer? Does Margarito get more public attention than Andrade and, if so, do you feel that Andrade's getting short changed? Or is it the other way around?

    The difference is Margarito is getting promoted. Unless Andrade gets a major title, he'll always be on the B side. Good fighter though. Tough.

    I think Andrade is actually getting more exposure than Margarito. I have only seen Margo on HBO a 3 times i think and he has been around for a long time.

    Andrade gets on HBO alot for a young fighter.
