    Mayorga.

    I wouldn't put money on Margarito to take 3 flush left-hooks in a row from a prime Felix Trinidad and still be standing, or not even stunned.

    I think that last one hurt Mayorga, but still to stick your chin out and eat left hooks from Tito Trinidad is more than ballsy it is downright stupid. He should have been Nate Campbelled

    They probably all hurt, as you could imagine with Tito punching you in the face. But as I'm sure you'll agree, he didn't look visibly stunned or look like going down at all, apart from the crazy dancing.

    I remember in the press conferences leading up to the fight where Mayo said he would stick his chin out to Tito just like he had done with Forrest. I was thinking yea right he'll never do that.... He did, and to this day that remains one of my favorite moments in boxing.

    He lost by TKO in his pro debut (accumulated punishment)

    Mayo. And I don't want to hear about Kermit...

    Mayo in his prime could take one hell of a shot. Mosley had Margo all over the place in the 8th.

    Yeah just read that. :lol:

    I ****ed it up, but still, he wasn't way past his prime.

    And punching power is the last thing to go.
