I don't think it has anything to do with aggression. Greatness has nothing to do with being crowd pleasing IMO. But some say that it does, and thats cool for them. He just hasn't beaten enough great fighters in their prime to be where he thinks he should be. Top 10 p4p? I have him at or near the top 50.
personally i wouldnt mind him fighting williams just from a style point of view, maybe too soon though, cotto causes him probs, as does hatton, as does SSM!
If Williams dominates Margarito and looks like the real deal, a Mayweather matchup would be very interesting indeed. However, you are right in saying maybe too soon since he does have a big test in front of him this Saturday.
what are your thoughts on that matchup? I go for williams by stoppage, no particular reason, i think he is too awkward and rangey for Margo, but if Margo can get inside and slip the punches coming in, it could get very interesting
I have a feeling that Williams is too easy to hit and doesn't use his height/reach advantages very well. I think Margarito's harder punches will wear him down a little big and pull him through to a close decision. But to me, this is a fight where I really wouldn't be surprised with any outcome. A 50-50 fight in my mind. One thing I'm sure of is that it will be very fun to watch. Punches will be flying!
hope so, ive got to stay up until about 3am to see it! but i agree, its a pickem fight, hopefully its a barnburner, might warm up with barrera morales 1!
Convincing, no way. It would be a great fight. PBF skill is up there with SRL. He'd box the same way Leonard did in the 2nd fight. But PBF wont be stupid and try to trade with him. I say Mayweather takes it because SRL showed what you have to do to beat him. Mayweather is faster. May not be bigger then SRL but hes faster.
