Margarito Training ..

This fight reminds me of a welter version of Holy-Bowe. Tough fight to call.

 

one word....undefeated

 

so is cotto and hatton and paul williams, your point??

 

We saw different fights then, because I never saw Cintron actually hit Margarito flush but maybe once or twice over 5 rounds.

And even though Margarito was open to Clottey upstairs, he did a terrific job of protecting his body. That is something that won't soon be forgotten should Cotto and he meet in the winter.

 

At this point, Roger can't teach Floyd anything new...the Mayweather mit work is to just make the punches second nature (to make them automatic). And he throws defense in there which is very smart. Those short little punches are also to get Floyd's body throwing the punches - so they are not arm punches. BTW, I don't like Floyd.

 

what does that have to do with anything?

 

So nobody says "stop defending your boy" like what happened with pit

 

His routine on the mitts looks exactly like Mayweather's, but at a slower speed.

 

yea sorta.

 

Margarito looks more impressive on the mits than Floyd but Areola looked lazy or maybe he just a little nervous

 

I think Mayweather's pad work is great but I don't use it much. I usually call out combinations and try to suprise the boxers, however you have to have a few varied combinations or the pad work is going to look like a train wreck with the fighter not having an idea of what might be coming next.
