Seriously though, do you guys really think Margarito would beat Floyd? I could see you guys picking Cotto to beat Floyd because he is highly skilled but Margarito? Im not dissing him. He's maybe the toughest SOB out there but I think Floyd would "easily" pick him apart. I could hear Roger right now telling him to "just keep shooting that **** straight down the middle". Everything he does is so wide and its super slow compared to Floyd. Floyd shoots his shots so quick, sharp, and right down the center. He'll eat Margarito up like that much in the way that Clottey did except for he would be more consistent.
I cant believe that people picked Cintron to beat Margarito. He's looked so bad against average guys and anyone who gives him pressure gives him trouble. So what he KO Estrada and Feliciano. How about the hell those guys gave him until the KO and they werent even hitting with power. You knew that Margarito would kill him. It would be totally different with Floyd. I think people underestimate defense in boxing with they look at fighters. You see Margarito run through a big guy like Cintron so you assume he would kill a little guy like Floyd but Floyd's D is 10x better then Cintron. I cant believe that pro's like Cintron can have bad D like that. Its like he was ******ed. Margarito was killing him with basic shots and there was nothing Cintron could do and almost looked like he wanted to just go hide. He had his hands halfway up, never moved his head, and never did any kind of shoulder rolls. Margarito probably felt that this was the easiest thing ever.
Cintron's power is overrated too. He hits like Foreman but like Atlas always says, if you dont know how to setup your power shots then they dont do anything. When he's going backwards or he's in tight then he gets no leverage on his shots. They dont look powerful at all. Its kind of like Tszyu. If you smother him then he cant throw with that same power. Thats how Floyd's punch can hurt Hatton way more then Tsyzu's. He'll never hit Floyd clean with those kind of slow wide punches that he throws and there easy to counter. No doubt he'll throw alot but Floyd is probably the best in boxing at landing clean punches that gets the judges and crowd's attention. His shots would stand out way more then Margarito's. Margarito wouldnt hurt him either. He doesnt have that kind of super power. He wears you down with solid shots and by hitting you a ton. That wouldnt weigh on Floyd
I dont think it would be like Floyd-Baldy either which some think. Margarito is not as big as Baldy and Floyd has grown some. I think Floyd would sitdown half the time and box the other half. Dont think that Margarito would just walk through his shots since he walked through Cintron's. Floyd would hit him alot cleaner and they would be blind quick punches that Margarito wouldnt see coming which would make them hurt more. People can say what they want but there is no one that would bet on Margarito if they really had to make a bet. Ive even heard alot of writers start to swtich on that. He's good but he doesnt have enough skill to beat a prime Floyd. You could argue about Cotto but not Margarito
