    I don't know, I've heard Margo spars with Heavyweights and has been know to take flush shots from heavyweights and shake it off like theyre lightweights hitting them. Honestly, we need to remember that Margo is human, nothing more and yes JC would drop him, IMO. Stop him, I don't know, but I think that he can surely drop him

    If Kessler nearly went down, Margarito will go down.

    I think if a rugged bum like Rick Thronberry or a David starrie can survive easily with Calzaghe, then a world class wleter/lght middle like Margo has a chance as well.

    Of course Calzaghe can drop Margo.

    Yes - Calzaghe Would Leave Margarito In A Heap On The Canvas.
    Too Big & Too Good For Margo.

    He would dominate Margo completely, but I'm not sure he would drop him. If he really wanted and the fight was in the UK he could probably rather easily get the fight stopped by launching those 30 punches in 1 minute.

    I hate the way people keep going on about Calzaghe being a slapper, that may be true now but his brittle hands forced this to happen not a lack of power. Earlier in his career he had legitimate knock out power, i wonder if half the people making these comments have seen any of his fights pre Lacy!

    of course he can...his KO percentage is not that low imo to think its impossible plus the fact that he is 4 divisions higher

    I think that Margaritos style is a style that wont work anymore once you cross a line which is not too far above welterweight.

    I am talking about dropping him in the fight not actually winning the fight. I know Joe will win.
