    Can't compete there that's why and his fight there against Santos proved it. Margo is very limited and flawed so he needs to stay at 147 where he can use his size advantage to soak up punches from smaller fighters there. At 154 they can take his shots better and he has nothing else to offer so he rather compete at 147 instead. I would pick atleast 80% of those fighters you listed to give Margo a beating at 154. That's why I say Margo is a ***** he can't really move up and challenge himself against the best only call out smaller fighters and think he's some badass or something and his dumbass fans buy it.

    Scared may be too big of a word, but he definitely showed him WAY too much respect.

    Because he doesn't enjoy a size advantage and would be a small JMW.

    Yeah right.:lol: If he was a warrior like his fans claim he would have avenged atleast one of his losses by now instead of rematching a man he made quit less than a year ago.

    apparently moving up in weight and losing to a journeyman (santos) makes you a warrior..
