    Whatever man, if you feel the need to advertise your little superiority complex feel free. I'm sure most people couldn't care any less.

    And the whole reason this little debate of ours is even going is because you suggested not ordering his fights, as if everyone should know if and when PBF is going to decide to be crowd pleasing and when he's not. THAT was my entire point, he's been both. It's not as easy as simply not ordering his fights when he's had plenty of good ones.

    Mayweathers soft hands would get injured on Margaritos hard chin. Margarito would win with his chin, not his hands!

    This was hardly me advertising myself but trying to make a point that all fighters have different styles, some fighters can apply two different styles in a single fight like when Floyd exchanged with Hatton/Chavez...etc, some fighters can't do that. Against DLH it would have been a death wish to stand there and exchange after already being stunned by a hard shot from DLH, not to forget that size difference, that's a fight Mayweather needs to use his boxing ability and only that, exchanging and putting his self in a position where he could get knocked down or even out is foolish, if fans don't appreciate it then so be it, the man is there to get the victory and put on a display of true boxing ability which not many obviously understand.

    I think it's a matter of being able to adapt in some fights and not doing so in others depending on the situation as I explained the DLH situation up there. The Baldomir fight Mayweather hurt his right hand in round two and couldn't afford any exchanges when he easily could box the guy and move, not to forget that he also plans to remain active after that fight and by pressuring an already broken right hand a next fight could take years to make. It's a matter of being smart and being able to afford it in the ring with the special abilities he obviously has.

    Don't think the judges will agree with you there.

    Nah man, Castillo has a much better skillset than Margarito. Mayweather would beat him on points for sure.

    I don't know, but Margarito sure would have a much greater chance at beating Floyd than Hatton.

    margarito would give mayweather the worst beating of his life. there is just no way in hell mayweather could run long enough to avoid the tijuana tornado. this man is a relentless stalker with no regard whatsoever for human life. he would tap mayweathers body to stop him from running then give him a brutal beating along the ropes when mayweather tries that shoulder roll ****. it would not be pretty and i would enjoy every minute of it.

    Margarito UD. Mayweather wouldn't take the needed risks to win this fight.
