Which former Mexican welterweight champion, aggressive slugger wins this fight? This content is protected Antonio Margarito 35-5 (25) This content is protected Pipino Cuevas 35-15 (31)
Margarito's chin has been proven as very solid, but I don't know how well he would do against Cuevas. Certainly it would be exciting and an all-out, old fashion brawl. Margarito is technically better than Cuevas, but he stands and fights. I think he makes it interesting for a few rounds before the power punching of Cuevas begins to take its toll to the body and the head. I see Cuevas wearing down Margarito and stopping him in the 6th (TKO).
Oh jeez, forgot how good Cuevas actually was, he likely stops that overrated club fighter Margarito in 5 rounds.
Margarito and Cuevas have almost the same style so it's hard to decide. Margarito has never been stopped and Cuevas was a few times. The same people calling Margarito an overrated club fighter now, would have called Cuevas an overrated club fighter back then.
Similar style hard to say I believe Cuevas has the more devestating power in the Hook and maybe Margo the better Chin. I say if Cuevas ' Chin can hold up I would go with Cuevas. How would Margo respond after getting hit with a Pipino Hook on the Button. I beleive if Cuevas was to lose this fight it would be by KO. My guess and its a tough one is if Margo cant hurt Cuevas he will either get stopped or lose the decision. But I would have to see how Cuevas responds to Margos Offense.
Cuevas surely has more power than Margo, even though Margo has a chin of granite, I see Pip getting too many shots in for Margo to handle, Pipino KO/TKO mid rounds. Good clips by the way, reminds me how good Hearns and Duran were (if you actually need reminding!!!!!!)
