    true but you can find something similar....

    there are alot of pressure fighters from light mid to mid

    kirkland, angulo, williams maybe?

    doubt floyd would spar them tho

    Angulo does the exact same thing as Margarito. Santos could do a good job of it. Even lower level guys from higher weight classes could imitate the same thing, because Margarito is very basic in his approach.

    It's far harder to find somebody that brings everything to the table like Mayweather. You might find somebody quick but he won't have the defence. Or he might have defence but not the precision. It's very difficult.

    Mayweather takes at least 8 rds in a counter-punching exhibition vs Margarito, he is too fast, too skilled & always well conditioned.

    Marg would have his moments & might even make it 1 of FMJs toughest fights but I personally dont think he has the skill to beat Mayweather.... Id love to see it tho.

    :good

    Angulo would more than prepare floyd for margarito...

    agulo is margarito except faster and is tighter with his punches...
    if floyd sparred with angulo it would make the fight 10000 x times easier for floyd

    Scenario:

    Mayweather hurts his right hand in the 2nd Round of the fight.

    How will the rest of the fight look from this point Onwards ?

    I think it will be a replica of the Castillo fight but with Mayweather ending up with more broken ribs this time.

    How will he break his hand if you are so sure that he wont even be able to even hit Mayweather from some of your previous assessments of how the fight might pan out ???

    Answer that.......

    haha im just saying.... injuries are random and unpredictable.... they could clash heads in the first round and there could be a cut that cancels the fight.... the best thing we can do is just compare their styles and just go from there

    ok cool,

    From a stylistic standpoint even me as a Margarito fan knows that Floyd is not the best opponent Stylistically for Margarito but I truly believe that Margarito will make Mayweather fight a different type of fight.

    You may see Mayweather becoming a lot more hesitant because Margarito throws punches regardless of what is coming back.

    He launches his punches up the centre from under and in all of Floyds fights I cant really remember him having to block or deal with any of those types of punches.

    Margarito throws so often which would make him susceptible to fast counters but I dont think Floyd will be looking to load up on the punches when he counters.

    He will be looking to get in and get out so Margarito I dont think will be receiving as much punishment as people expect him to.

    I think that Mayweather will not stop or slow down Margarito but he may frustrate him with constant movement.

    I can see Mayweather slowing down the pace considerably or trying to slow it down by clinching.

    Mayweather would be tipped to win but it might end up being much closer than what everyone seems to think on here...
