    Yes. Cotto showed you can get in and out with ease against Margo, you just have to keep the pace the whole fight.

    yes, Floyd has more skill than cotto and better stamina, so he would win the fight.

    Yes ... he has the same type of speed advantage over Margarito as he did against Baldomir.

    He could do more than just that. Imagine a the Baldomir fight with Floyd actually having to engage more. 8-4 Mayweather UD.

    Yes.

    Although Margarito hits much harder, we have to remember that Mayweather has excellent chin and excellent stamina.

    Also, Baldomir was 162 POUNDS the night of his fight against Mayweather. 162.

    No, because he is retired.

    Hypothetical, He can walk on water.

    Not a snowball's chance in hell.

    Unlike Baldomir, Margarito actually throws punches. :lol:

    He could but it will be more difficult to run from Margarito in the last few rounds.

    I doubt it. All Baldomir did was follow Mayweather around the ring without applying effective pressure. Margarito had Cotto on the ropes all night long and would have Mayweather on the ropes for a good chunk of the fight.

    The question shouldn't have ANYTHING to do with Baldomir, cause Mayweather would implement a slightly different style against Marg as against Baldy.

    Either way, WOULD MAY WIN?

    Yes.

    So now Balomir doesnt throw punches? Remember marg only punches when he's close and got his feet set. Now im not saying Baldomir is better than marg but let me asked this question. Was cotto (before he gassed) not making marg miss and able to move and get away from marg with that much of a problem?

    Listen to you May fans...."Can May run the entire fight like a ***** and still win?". Only in the eyes of fans who love marathons
