    That's why I said if only Valero's power was as good as the press hypes it to be.

    90% of his fights were against nobodies, yes.

    But were talking hypothetical here. Most of his KO's were 1 big punch that stuns his man, then he finishes his opponent off.

    If his one punch KO power was as good as advertised, I'd give him 2 rounds to do the job.

    He wont last longer than 3 rounds vs a big, strong WW,

    But you do know who Margarito is right?
    His chin might not even be legal in the boxing world.
    ITs almost like saying what WW can move up to SMW and beat Andrade. I dont think anyone would be saying Andrade would be losing VIA KO. Its just not gonna ever ever happen.

    The Cotto fight ws just one win, man. A great win too.

    I know Margarito is tough, but people here are sometimes thinking his head is made of adamantium or something. :yep

    After that win, I'd have to see 2 or 3 more Margo fights to gauge how really tough he is.

    Right now, I think his chin is a 9. I'm not gonna instantly give him a perfect 10 just yet.

    hmmm.. quite a task to ask of from a fighter who started his career @ 122 but given that Soto and Margo have about the same style except Soto may be a bit more educated.. its possible lol

    Most of the superfeatherweights right now came from the lighter weights, so it's an automatic double size disadvantage already.

    Who are the currently active superfeathers that originally started at 130 or higher?

    In the past? Some all time greats.

    Only half.

    But check out Camacho's fight with Trinidad. Trinidad still had some trouble finding him and Trinidad is a much more competent boxer than Margarito.

    The lateral movement will trouble Margarito greatly. To say Margarito's feet are in cement is to do the fluidity of cement an injustice.
