    Tata is not a big puncher, check his ko percentage. Yes, he had enough grit to wear down a shop-worn Gatti but he didn't have the pop to drop Zab.

    Tata just follows his opponents around while Margarito is more athletic to cut the ring and put more pressure on his opponent. It's effective pressure not Baldy's follow the leader style.

    Baldy, even when he wanted to sell-out and try to rush Floyd, couldn't get anywhere near him. Margarito would be on top of Floyd for 12 rounds strong, strong.

    Floyd doesn't want that, he didn't take the fight did he?
    Margarito is slow like baldomir
    Margarito is generally wild like baldomir
    Margarito has bad footwork like baldomir
    Margarito swings wide like baldomir


    Margarito would be following mayweather around the ring getting pot shotted and hit all night. Margarito isnt "more atheltic" his footwork is awful and he could barely cut off the ring against ****ing Daniel Santos! He didint have enough "pop" to stop Zab, yet we all know Zab was likely on his way to getting knocked out which is why he pulled what he pulled in the 10th. Margarito would never land on floyd, Margarito with no head movement and no ****ing defense would get stuck all night, following floyd, even if he tried to cut off the ring, floyd is too fast, it would be a ****ing shutout.

      I actually meant that Baldomir doesn't have any pop. He never dropped Zab.

      If Margarito would have landed on Zab, the fight would be over that same round.

      Look you can compare the two all you'd like but they are different. Margarito would be ON TOP of Floyd everywhere he goes. Baldomir JUST FOLLOWED FLOYD AROUND.

      And no Margarito wouldn't be landing accurate punches on Floyd. But he would be ****ing him hard to the shoulders and arms. That would def take alot out of Floyd. He's just not big enough to keep Margarito off of him. And as I've said before Floyd isn't the combination puncher and mover he was at 135 or even 140.

      Basically everything Gatti said he was going to do, Margarito would do.

          This should be funny:

          In which Margarito fight does Margarito show any capability that he would be able to cut off the ring effectively against someone like Floyd?

              You did make sense by stating that margarito would rather have a unified bout with another champ, but margarito was ducking williams for a very, very long time. I think Paul been calling him out since he debuted on HBO, aaaaaand margarito was playing with the idea of dropping his belt so that he wouldnt have to fight Williams. alot of you margarito fans fail to remember that.

              Now you went on and said "what would wlad klitschko rather do, fight valuev for more money and unified championship, or fight james toney because james toney is arguably better than same peter?" Your logic makes no sense. Yes Klitshcko stated he would fight valuev. It just couldnt happen cuz of politics, but then you say somehting ****** like "or fight James Toney because James Toney is better than Sam Peter?!!" Come on now.
              1. Sam Peter beat Toney.
              2. James Toney is no where near being Wlad's mandatory. Williams has been Margarito's mandatory for a minute now. This fight should have happened in 2006.
              3.You should have used Ray Austin instead of James Toney for your arguement, but you still would have been wrong cuz Klitschko never ducked a Ray Austin. He yawned at him.
              4. I think I just gave you a boxing lesson.
              you sound like cottos****sucker............aahahahahahhahahahahah aahahah

                Yes i ONE fight.

                Rahman got lucky on that KO because Lennox was messing around in the ring. The only reason Rahman won that fight is because Lewis took Rahman lightly.... Never underestimate your oponnents.

                  This is funny....
                  The Debate isn't about who would win.. Its about if someone ducked someone..
                  And Only Floyd knows for sure... But it sure looked like he was ducking Margarito..

                      How exactly do you duck someone by taking better fights instead? The Baldomir fight was much more lucrative and Baldomir was more proven than Margarito. Floyd then goes on to make the biggest fight in the sport. It's ducking only if you choose a lesser fight and PBF clearly didn't do that...
