What if Margarito and Floyd fought

Gatti was the betting favorite,with Gatti that means Gomez was there to lose

 

its easy to take the best parts of one fighter and match them to another.

just because someone has feathers does not make them a chicken.

 

it is easy, but that's not what I did

Cotto fought in a manner than Mayweather is far more likely to make successful irrespective of feathers and chickens

 

well i actually agree with you in principle. it's just the example i thought was off.

 

So everytime someone is not the better favorite they are there to lose?

 

Nope,just this time

 

Not at all, but as both fall under the banner of 'pressure fighters' there is a vague similarity.

 

I think Margarito has the goods to man handle Floyd into corners to work the body but who knows for sure.

 

He does, but unfortunately he's his own worst enemy because he likes to mix it up too much. He'll follow floyd around trying to get close instead of opening up at range more. He owned Cotto with the right hand over the top but didn't use it enough because he wanted to get in close and go to work.

Because his footwork isn't the best he'll be like a bull trying to get the matador. To beat Floyd he'll have to throw from range more than he does. Castillo was as quick on his feet as Floyd and could get close to him, Hatton could also, because he is good on his feet. Toni, for all his brute force, hasn't the greatest lateral movement and agility.

 

Fair assessment but no doubt Mayweather will be in a tough fight against Margarito. :good

 

pop shots, less power and less combos..

ever watch Baldo/ Floyd :good

 

I can see Margarito outworking Mayweather in a fight. I really can.

 

so should he just slug with a man that will out weigh him by over 20 pounds.what kills me is people ***** about who pbf fights then when he does fight them they ***** about how he fights.haters trying to turn pbf into a slugger or some ****, his style of fighting got him to were he is now, the saying goes if it aint broke dont fix it.

 

he won't outowrk floyd with quality punches.

he needs the windmills to hit home.

 

yes
