    He's just trying to say that for a man that is built up to be some kind of colossal power, it's interesting to note that he has a lower KO% than a man that many frown up for running or potshotting or whatever else haters like to call Mayweather's boxing.

      KO percentage is for losers who don't watch fights. Mayweather is a good fighter because he wins, not because he knocks out tom, **** and harry.

      KO percentage is meaningless at the top levels of the sport.

      And I would never say Mayweather was feather fisted.
      Hell, I wouldn't say Pernell Whitakker was feather fisted although people might when they just look at boxrec.

        Someone tell this brainiac that Margarito turned pro at 15 years old. And that since leaving 130, Floyd has stopped 5 of his last 12 opponents. No one is doubting Floyd's power at 130, since then, not so much.

          Margarito is called the most feared man in boxing by hardcore fans and many hardcore fans do call PBF a feather fisted and a runner, but yet he has a higher KO percentage against more quality opponents. He Knock out people in numerous weight classes unlike Marg who struggles in his natural weight class

            it's true. mayweather is far more skilled thant margarito... he will easily beat margarito with a unanimous decision.

            miguel cotto has the highest chance of beating mayweather right now... but still, mayweather is too skilled for cotto.

              If we wanna be picky Mayweather's ko pct at welterweight is 40% and Margarito's is 62%.

              That's a fact.
              But it's dumb all around.

                circumstances dont matter to these dudes. its all about stats. kind of like the way a rapper is considered good because they get a platinum plaque.

                and before you girls start crying, im not saying floyd is good or overrated. as a matter of fact, ive never said anything like that. but stats arent always the best source for truth or what happened.

                    He was dubbed most feared man in boxing not because he's superhuman but because nobody wants to fight him. Plain and simple. Good enough to be elite but not enough to be a household name. Definitely beatable but intimidating enough for other top level fighters to not take a chance with the risk he presents

                      Yep but Margo been at 147 his whole career which means all those bums he waxed are included in that 62%.
