Question for all these morons who say Mayweather retired to aboid facing the big welters.
Why on earth did he retire before fighting Oscar then, who would make him insane amounts of money? Was he afraid of Oscar?
Nothing huh? That's what I thought.
where floyd is better than margorito is just about everything that matters in a smart fight, meaning, he controls margo's pace better tha tony controls his own pace, that alone gets floyd the win. this fight is easy pickings for floyd, he is too brilliant in the ring.
Yea, because Mayweather is known to stay in the pocket vs larger fighters.
Mayweather retired because he couldn't hang with the big boys at welter.
Why he gotta be black??!???
(your sig)
Mayweather vs Magarito would look like the first 4 rounds of Clottey vs Margarito, except for 12 and a lot worse.

Wins over Cotto, Clottey, Cintron and many other top ten welters.
Even a close fight UD loss to Paul Williams separates the two.
lol Judah and Gatti being his defining moments.

What seperates Antonio Margarito from Carlos Baldomir??? Not much...

Mayweather beats Margarito.
Mayweather is more elusive, more accurate, faster, much better defensively and smarter than Cotto, He wouldn't get drawn into Margarito's fight like Cotto did.
Mayweather wins the fight with Lateral movement, accurate pot shots and counters and top notch defense.
Y'all need to watch The Cintron fights and the Cotto fight for your answer..
Nobody in their right mind is going to suggest Mayweather hits harder than Cintron.. Cintrol was teeing off and landing FLUSH power shots.. That were snapping Margarito's head back.. and he just kept Coming.. If Cintron Blocked high.. Marg would go Low always wearing him down..Throwing punches and hitting ANYTHING.. arm,chest,neck wherever..
In the Cotto Fight.. Cotto danced, Cotto Ducked, Cotto threw 5 shot combos that all landed flush.. He threw deadly power shots that once again sent Marg's head snapping back.. Cotto fought the fight of his life,tried every trick in the book.. Margarito JUST KEPT COMING.. Throwing punches from odd angles with that scary REACH.. Hitting arms,shoulders,chest etc etc.. always wearing him down..
Floyd will dance, Floyd will duck,Floyd will dodge, Floyd will counter, Floyd will throw combos, and when it doesn't work.. and Marg is STILL coming..all the while .. WITH HIS REACH landing whatever wherever.. And this where Floyd freaks lose the plot.. Marg WILL land.. Probably not much in the early going.. but enough.. even if it's just Arm and shoulder.. he will land enough..And Floyd will wear down.. as the Bigger and stronger man bears down on him.. His heart breaking.. due to his best arsenal not being enough.. His Body breaking, from the relentless machine in front of him,Flailing with those LONG powerful arms.. Catching Floyd more often and more flush as the fight wears on..
and slowly Floyd breaks down.. and soon the ring isn't big enough to run anymore..
Floyd is not that small he was not much smaller than DLh. He does not have to hurt Margarito he will land at will with quick shots. Margarito takes shots well but he wont see the shots coming and will get discouraged after 6 or 7 rounds. Cotto can crack harder but he wont land a third of the punches Floyd does. Also Margarito has slow feet once he will let Margarito get him near the ropes and turn leaving plenty of room to land 3 or 4 shots and then repeat. Cotto and Cintron both punch hard but the footspeed, Footwork, and overall defense and stamina of Floyd is what will win. Also Floyd can tie up he is not weak on the inside he will fight harder than we see him but win on doubt. Oscar has faster feet, and hands and still barely land shit. All the Dlh fans were saying he outworked FLoyd, lol he threw and hit alot of air. Margarito will due the same. Peace
People give mayweather way too much credit for something he was too scared to even attempt to accomplish. face it, he retired in order to protect his 0 because he knew that he'd very well lose to the top welters.
accomplishments @welterweight margarito > mayweather and that's not open to debate

nah, floyd outboxes marg... it'll look like floyd/baldomir
couldn,t say it any better....for all the people who think floyd wins this one very easy will always know that this guy is never going to fight margy and if floyd is so good lets see if he faces the most feared fighter or 2nd best, even cotto for that sake...clottey or paul williams for god sake...someone with a pulse....

Isn't Floyd coming back? Floyd would do all night long what Cotto was only able to do in the first half and do it better, and that is to outbox Margarito's socks off.
Floyd UD over Margarito.
Floyd is far too good defensively.
One of the most under-rated qualities of Mayweather's defense is his ability to control the pace of the fight, using Ring Generalship. He only struggled against Castillo who was a master of Ring Generalship and could cut off the ring better than anyone today. He forced Floyd to fight. He also happened to be 24 years old at the time (people seem to think Floyd is the same fighter at 31 as he was at 24, which is laughable)
Margarito averages roughly a 100 punches thrown a round? If they ever fought, you could expect that number to be reduced to about 50-60, simply because Floyd won't allow it, and Margarito is not good enough to do it. Floyd will constantly be out of position where Margarito cannot throw a punch. Margarito is not fast on his feet like Hatton was, and he has a horrible tendency to follow his opponent around the ring rather than cut it off. Floyd would win this fight easily by staying out of range and scoring on Margarito's non-existant defense. Do you honestly think Floyd will try to hurt Margarito? All he has to do is pop-shot, and that will be very easy to do.
Floyd outclasses Margarito10-2, 11-1 in a dull, boring, blowout.
And then the Margarito bandwagon magically disappears, and it's just another over-hyped bum on Floyd's resume and that he's nothing but a Fraud. Thank god he retired.
cosign.
id lOve to see it tho .
