If Pac, Cotto, and Shane tortured, outboxed and ko'd Mr Plaster, then what are the chances of Mr Plaster beating Floyd when Floyd beat all 3 guys that Mr Plaster lost to lol...!!!???
I think when floyd first moved up to ww and wasn't adjusted to the weight, and there was demand for the fight, margarito could have given him problems. Not sure if he would've won though, but In hindsight I'm glad the fight didn't happen, margarito would have definitely been packing plaster.
Both Williams and Margarito likely beat Mayweather. Too tall, Mayweather not enough power, too much volume punching. Floyd's not dumb. He knew who would and would not give him issues. Between Williams and Margarito, Margarito is the worse match up for Floyd.
people bring up maidana fight as a evidence marg would have success v floyd. if the fight were to take place it would have been in place of the baldomir fight, a much younger floyd. FLOYD WOULD HAVE RAN CIRCLES AROUND MARGARITO. people would have boo'd and left the stadium because SUPRISE ****ING SUPRISE, floyd would completely outbox margarito and the few times marg would pin floyd in a corner he would tie him up or simply move out. marg was never a one punch guy (though has good power), his relentless pressure would wear his opponents down to a stoppage, floyd conditioning alone would allow him to see out the 12. how anyone can argue a case for margarito ILL NEVER KNOW, he was SO ****ING HITTABLE? floyd throws what? 400 punches? HED LAND 60% of them AT LEAST, how you gonna wear floyd down late ? HELL EVEN IF BY SOME MIRACLE MARGARITO DID, floyd would secure almost every round until he possibly tires out ? (again when has floyd done that?) "margarito would not respect floyds power" yeh yeh yeh typical armchair fans, prob the same people that think jabs dont hurt? prob the same people that have never sparred or even set foot in a boxing gym in their lives. floyd routinely gets respect from all of his opponents to date so what makes margarito any different ? he never hurt guys with iron chins like mosley yet he was reluctant as hell to throw (or are we going to suggest a world class elite level fighter in mosley went into the biggest fight of his career not having a tank sufficient enough to go 2 rounds.. hell not even high intensity rounds...) rant over
i want to say floyds team would have caught him out if he used it vs floyd but its hard to say that when he prob went through alot of good fighters using it and no one caught him
You can bet your life if Mayweather would of fought Margo, and won and not fought Baldo, this thread would of been made with the names reversed...
Agreed. I think floyds team would have been pretty vigilant about everything. i don't really like floyd, but he's a great talent, and i wouldn't want to see him get hit with gloves packed with plaster, win or lose.
