Now we know why floyd ducked a prime margo and pac

If you believe Floyd would have retreated to the ropes against Maidana in 2006...you clearly didn't watch Floyd in his latter prime. He would have moved and moved and moved. Margarito was much much slower, though he had a great chin, but Maidana probably hits harder IMO. Would have been competitive, but Floyd was a wayyyy better fight 8 years ago.

So now people are mentioning fantasy fights with prime fighters versus 37-year-old Mayweather. Prime Margarito wouldn't do squat to a PRIME Mayweather. Let's be fair. You're right because Floyd would run like a ***** and never fight him

last night confirmed the reason why fraud ducked pac and the rest of the ww division. smart move doe. :dunno:

i don't think it's being recognized that floyd mayweather was a much, much better fighter 5-10 years ago. he had the legs to post up in the center of the ring, and the reflexes to make you pay for almost everything you threw. You're correct, but all of Floyd's antics highlighted Floyd's insecurity and reasoning for him ducking fights like Margo and PAC.

I was thinking the same thing. Utterly ridiculous to suggest Mayweather would have easily beaten Margarito after last night. he wasn't 37 years old when the margarito talk was really buzzing. margarito's peak was the cotto fight, imo, which was six years ago. floyd mayweather was a completely different fighter six years ago. maidana is also much, much faster than margarito. he hits harder, too. margarito had better stamina, a steadier approach, and the best chin i've ever seen on a welterweight. margarito also clearly loaded his gloves for a portion of his career. that probably includes the cotto fight. who knows what kind of power he actually possessed.

no wonder why he has made 100 excuses to avoid pac, imagine what pac would have done to floyd FLoyd is a b level trash fighter, tbe my fckn ass:lol1::lol1: He has ducked the best over the years and his legions of trolls kept on making excuses for himn he had to rig a fight to beat chino, everyone saw he lost that fight, thats 2 he has lost now but got gifts Floyd is b level, he is all hype, a prime margo, mosley, cotto and pac would have killed this guy, especially pac, I finally understand why the floyd fans want no part of pac he lost to freaking chino, a guy who was outboxed by khan for christ sake... I mentioned this last night to a friend. Floyd ducking Margarito was one of the biggest ducks in boxing history. Margarito was slow but he threw so many punches he would have been catching Floyd. Of course every big fight that doesnt happen according to Floyd is always the other guys fault.

Margacheato would of gave Mayweather problems. That's why May wouldn't fight him. :boxing:

Paul Williams would have beaten Floyd. Guy threw a hundred punches a round for 12 rounds. What would Floyd do? Throw his 15 punches and win the rounds? Doubt it. PAC man after beating Cotto would have gave Mayweather fits. Speed,power,footwork,angles. Floyd would have been beat up by the end of that fight. Margarito was slowwwwww, but, he did have an iron chin and good power,height,reach,jab...close fight but Mayweather beats him up in the center of the ring. That is what I have been saying for all these years. Paul Williams beats Floyd with volume and non-stop fighting. P. Williams would be the same P. Williams in round 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 .........

Mayweather's subpar performance against a crude brawler like Maidana certainly lends credibility to the argument Margarito fans have been putting up for years. Let's be real : Margarito was a bigger, stronger, more durable, and more relentless version of Chino. but if Cotto could outboxed him. I think Mayweather would have beat him like he did Bladomir.

The Maidana - Pac comparisons are really showing us what fans have no clue what they're watching. They fight nothing alike. yeah, if floyd faced a prime pac, floyd would be running like hell out of the ring.

I will never support a guy who had plaster found in his gloves He never had plaster found in his gloves, for starters.

Still can't believe Pac fought Marg regardless of the catchweight...Pac looked like a little kid against a grown ass man that had all the candy to give away.

Did Floyd dominate Catsillo? Oh that's right, he dominated cotto didn't it, oh wait, wait I know, he dominated DLH... :notworthy And TS yeah, I've been saying this for years, a prime Pacs aggression, speed, power and combination punching would have earned him a great win. It's sad we'll never see the fighters at their bests. A prime Pac vs a ____ Mayweather?? I hope you dont think a prime Pac would beat a prime FMJ but whatever...

I was thinking the samething. A prime Margarito would have given Floyd tons of problems. Tony Weeks was disgusting as a refferee last night. He was on that Floyd pay roll. I thought Tony weeks did well. Both fighters were hitting each other with low blows, forearm, elbows... Even rabbit punches but he never let it get out of control. That said, he will no longer referee a Floyd fight again. Floyd would complain and weeks would separate and yell box. Think Joe Cortez makes an appearance for the next one.

I will never support a guy who had plaster found in his gloves
