How inconceivable is it now for Floyd to have beaten Margarito?

    It's obvious my friend. PBF is a stylistic hell for Margo. He doesn't have the footwork to be able to hit PBF effectively. PBF could slip move to the other side of him and hit him without him even seeing the punches. Margo fights one way he comes forward with no plan B. He's wide open, throws slow looping shots he's a counter-puncher's wet dream.:deal He gets thoroughly thrashed by elite talent like PBF in a fight that would leave people like you shocked but to me and others who know it would come as no surprise.

    When PBF was hungry for the titles, he had some really great fights. He took chances, and he completely dominated in his performance, sometimes with a great KO.

    Gatti was a great fighter, but by the time PBF got to him he was shot. ****, even Gomez dominated Gatti. I will give Floyd credit for working his way up in spectacular fashion though.

    But De La Hoya and Hatton are not good fighters to leave on. Against De La Hoya, I got the idea that Floyd has just hanging back, and trying to keep the fight going. I really think he could have finished him easily, much like Paciou did.

    Hatton is just a glorified wrestler to me. When the ref took away that ability, we saw how easily a good fighter would dominate him. He simply tries to get big shots off as he comes out of the clinch, and I don't find it exciting or fair. It a ***** defense, and anybody who let's him do that kind of fight should be ashamed.

    Anyway, if PBF comes back to fight a top fighter, he will go out on top, but right now it was just cherry picking while he held the title.
