    Everyone's different aren't they.

    Every fighter has a different body type and fighting style, and they fight at the weights they're most suited to. Pernell was smaller in height, but he had a longer reach. He was an extremely gifted boxer.

    Ricky was a small pressure fighter.

    Why would I be trolling?

    In my opinion, Marg would have been a hard nights work for Floyd, stylistically.

    Pea was extremely gifted, with a 4" reach advantage. He could outbox guys at the higher weights.

    Ricky was an out and out fighter who would have to go through the trenches to win, often getting cut in the process.

    Different body types, different styles.

    Ricky would have found it extremely hard fighting natural WW's for a prolonged period. His optimum weight was at WW, where he was sharper, fitter and faster.

    I respect you opinion but I think you're wrong. Margarito was just too slow. His volume would cut in half just like damn near all Mayweather opponents because there would be nothing there to hit.

    Now you give Marg a little footspeed, and better footwork at cutting off the ring and then you'd have a point.

    hard to take you serious when you go this route...so because we don't think Margo can beat Floyd in your mind that means we think Monzon too....just stop

    Monzon was slow, plodding, big and high stamina. Just like Tony Margs.

    Is that what you got from studying boxing films on youtube? Monzon had more skills and a good jab... Tony needs you to fight him on the inside to stand a chance.. you box him on the outside you get what you saw in the first 6 rounds of the first Cotto fight... Had tony not been plastered up for that fight Little Cotto would have pitched a shut out....
