I think most people will say Hearns can knockout Margarito for sentimental reasons, but I don't think he could. If Leonard could take all of those right hands, in all of those fights, I would favour Margarito to do so also. Hearns wins every minute of every round though.
As much as I like Margo and as much as I hated Ray Leonard, I have to say that Antonio Margarito is nowhere close to being a Sugar Ray Leonard. Never was. Never will be.:bart
Thanks for stating the absolutely obvious for us Tito. In terms of punch resistance, Margarito and Sugar Ray Leonard are very comparable. In terms of ability, of course Ray Leonard is light years ahead of Margo, he's light hears ahead of most, but we're talking punch resistance. I think if Sugar Ray Leonard can take all of those right hands and not be stopped, I would favour Margarito to do so also.
