    How the hell are his upper body muscles"ineffective?" That doesn't even make sense.

    Margo would get blasted but Kirkland...Kirkland is a big fighter bigger and stronger then Margo...Plus he is a very active fighter...Margo's only advantage in fights is fighting smaller guys...If he dont fight smaller fighters he dont win its really that simple...I know that people dont want to believe that but the proff is right there...

    at 154, i dont know how to call it. im leaning towards kirkland. at 147 i think margo.

    IMO, Kirkland is in a strange place. He appears too big to fight at welter and is too small to do anything at middle, where his power will be a non factor. He will prolly end up being a litmus test for prospects at 154 transitioning to the 160 class, or a possible stay busy fight for a good welter who can box a bit.

    At the rate that Kirkland is improving every fight, I doubt that he will be a test for anyone for a long time...I think that he will win a belt maybe two and hold on to it for awhile..

    Cotto would get knocked out by Kirkland. Floyd would have trouble with Kirkland at 154. I currently would pick Williams to beat Kirkland.
