    According to some interview presented on this forum on video, it was amazing how much fear Mayweather showed towards a fight against Margarito. At one occasion he almost cried because of people demanding this fight. He did all he could to avoid this fight. I have never seen a boxer acting like that. I am not sure that PBF could handle Margarito`s pressure for 12 consecutive rounds without being punished. Another reson is that Margarito does very well against smaller fighter such as Mayweather.

    Strangely enough, Mayweather has just the style to beat Margarito over 12rds, however that fight certainly didn't fit Mayweathers DLH-inspired path of least resistance approach to his latter career - Carlos Baldomir was a much more attractive option for him.
