Nail on the head Bazooka. :good 35 year old Shane Mosely, old legs and even older hunger. Old ass DLH with a bad shoulder and elbow. Good luck throwing that 80 times a round. Winky Wright who prides himself on beating guys who throw one punch at a time. Has everyone already forgot how Solimon got in his ass? Remind me again of what type of boxer Solimon is? Crude pressure, thanks. And last but not least, lil Floyd and his ambitions to capture at title a 147. I'm cool with that, but you and Ring magazine can go **** yourselves if you think you are the best 147lb fighter in the world. That honor belongs to Antonio Margarito. And after he stomps Williams and stops Cotto you will be forced to admit it.
I only consider Margarito the best Welter weight because he has been consistant and he has been avoided by all the best, he is still #1 according to Ring Magazine, meaning if we only went by their ratings Floyd would have to defend against his mandotory which would be Margarito, but thank god for the WBC IBF and other sanctioning bodies, thank god Ring doesnt and cant enforce a mandotory defense other wise he would have to face tony, its funny how they all point to Rings ratings regarding his P4P status and his welter weight status yet when Tony is brought up they never look at that same publisher that has him rated just under Floyd, and Floyd is supposed to be the man to take on the biggest fights right? atsch if that were true he would have took on the free easy money in fighting Tony, he would have used the ratings of Ring to justify why he should fight Tony, but even Floyd knows better.
Funny people keep talking about Margo's worldclass workrate which is good when he's fighting someone who's there to be hit. PBF is the exact opposite. Margo's workrate will drop by 50% against PBF I will guarantee it. Why you ask? Because Margo will be throwing at at air bothered by PBF's superior movement and two he will get countered to hell in back with his slow wide looping shots three PBF can fight while backing up. PBF will befuddle Margo and make him look like the slow limted plodder we all knew he was. Margo can't handle movement, speed and good counterpunching, in other words he's ****ed against PBF.:deal
It's no secret that PBf hasnt fought the best. Only his delusional, nut swinging, hype train riding fans try to defend it. I dont have a problem with Hatton, in all honesty it should have happened at 40 before PBf moved up. Yet, 47 is where he has the opportunity to leave his legacy. SSM, Margarito vs Williams winner, and Cotto are the opponents to do it against and if Floyd doesnt step up?? He pisses away his legacy.
How's he the best at 147 when he's never beaten anyone of note there or even faced a champ of the division he's been in for 10 years?:huh
Floyd dont hit hard enough to get the respect from Tony, and when Floyd is on them ropes he wont be able to counter as effectivley as he did in recent fights, Tony will be cracking him to the body and head much more than Oscar was able to. Bank on that. the only thing Floyd can try is the style he used with baldimor, but Tony wont just stand there he will be comming forward with harder shots,. its nice that you notice all the bells and whistles Floyd does have but there is one thing you forgot, Floyd dosent have the heart to man up and try to fight Margarito, if he did the fight would have happend.
Ask Ring Magazine that he is rated #1 just under the Champion Mayweather, teh same people who have Floyd rated #1 P4P and the same people you all point out when people question Floyd. so if Ring says this that and the other about Floyd and you all use that as fuel than you MUST accept Ring magazines position with Margarito. you cant have it one way.
He made Clottey quit in the last third of the fight, and he had speed movement and could counter very well. in other words Floyd is ****ed.
You walk away from PROVING to be among the best, maybe to 20 or so?? That's bull**** and PBF has avoided top opp in EVERY DIVISION. Real respect is earned. BTW?? Pretty much every other "Champ"(judah, baldo, PBF) at 47 during margarito's time there has AVOIDED HIM. He'd love to get them in the ring:good Also, Marg has had the BO belt and is a titlelist just like PBFhas been in 3 of his 5 division's.
Comparing PBF to Clottey is like well comaparing PBF to Margo there is no comparision. PBF is head and shoulders above them both.
that's OPINION!!!! A WIN would be fact and the only fact is PBF turned down 8 mil twice to face Marg:good
