    I still find myself wishing that this fight would have happend. Two iron chinned fighters with iron wills who wouldn't take a step back. This fight could have been an absolute war it's a shame it didn't happen a few years ago. What's everyone else thoughts about this?

    this is more of a 1 sided beatdown than a war.

    Baldo doesn't have the pop to keep Margo honest.

    I don't think Baldo would have been stopped neither man would have. Baldo had a granite chin he fought Forrest at 154 and he can crack. He hit Carlos with everything but the kitchen sink and he kept coming.

    BTW I'm talking about a few years ago not now.

    I think it would end a draw. Margo would start slow and eventually when he picked up in the 2nd half he would win on activity.

    This would have been an interesting fight. It can still happen today at 154, I would pick Baldomir to win though.

    Even though Margo is slow compare to most fighter at that weight, Baldomir is even slower. Antonio would have a field day with him.

    World class fighter vs. regional journeyman. A wipeout. Margarito beats up and destroys him.

    I like Baldomir so wouldn't want to see him on the wrong end of a bad beating. His defense is not much better than Margarito's. Margo would look like PBF landing over 60% of his powershots on him except it would be 100 per round instead of 30.

    i don't like to add more or take away from a fighter and my hats off to baldomir's chin, but that alone wouldn't be enough as margo's main attack is mostly to the body, wears his opponents down, then goes upstairs once he has slowed them down to where his pressure is better applied. it would be a good fight tho, but margo definitely has a serious advantage in firepower. imo margo ko9 baldomir

    Shut the **** up this has nothing to do with PBF. This about two guys with iron chins and wills and a potential fight that would have been a war. **** off *****.:hi:
