    Um, no, my point was if he struggled with Castillo who is a mini Margarito what would a big ass welterweight like Margarito do to Floyd? Most likely give him hell. :hey :good

    You aren't factoring in how much slower Margo is compared to Castillo.

    Oh yeah but I also didn't say how Margarito closes the distance better than Castillo either. :D :thumbsup

    Or how Margo needs to set his feet to actually do something, or how he gets hit more than any other fighter.

    Because if you get hit by a boxer who likes to move, it means you never set your feet and always are moving.

    Margo when he swings will hit air, over extend and waste energy. The targets there, Margo will miss. And he telegraphs all his punches.

    If he cuts off the ring properly he doenst have to worry about Floyd moving. Get his body shots in and try to lean on Floyd to hit him with a right uppercut.

    Mayweather would dance around Margarito sticking and moving scoring points. Margarito would walk through everything and laugh. Similar to Floyd's fight with Oscar except Margarito's easier to hit. I would compare Mayweather - Margarito to a modern day Sugar ray Leonard vs. Marvin Hagler, with Mayweather coming out of retirement after a few years to come back and beat the top dog in Boxing by a close UD.

    Margo doesn't cut off the ring. He never has, he just follows his opponent.

    Can't see Margo winning this fight. Floyd has a lot of stamina himself. He will be able to outbox Margo for 12 rds. Floyd will not have easy times in the fight, but this is a very winnable fight for him.

    He cut the ring off well in the second half against Cotto.

    He doesn't know how to do so well enough and Cotto isn't even a good mover, Margarito just walks straight and stalks, even when he tries to cut off the ring it doesn't look good enough so in short, no he doesn't know how to cut off the ring.
