I don't think Mayweather would make it close and trade like Cotto did.
As much as I like Margarito, I see Mayweather winning 8 rounds to 4 if I am honest about it.

I don't think Floyd would fight Margo after seeing this, but at the same time I wouldn't doubt Floyd could beat him.

Why not?

Why do people assume that Cotto is as fast as Floyd? And when did Cotto become a defensive wizard? Floyd's speed and defense is ridiculous compared to Cotto's, so I don't see why anyone wants to make that "get on his bike" comparison.

Floyd would never get into any exchanges in the corner and potshot his way to a HUGE UD. Remember, Margarito can destroy you, but only by accumulation. No one punch he throws can hurt Floyd and Floyd will be out before any combinations land. It won't be a fun fight to watch, but I think Floyd would win easy.

Couldn't agree more.

Floyd would not likely knock Margarito out, but he'll beat him on points by large margin.

Margarito is very slow and can absorb lots of shots.

But will likely lose to a much faster fighter.

Enter Paul Williams again, and Margarito will be giving up that belt.

Margarito is 5'11 and has a big reach.It wont be easy for Gayweather to hit the guy.

Margarito has absolutely no jab; this makes his reach negligible. He also loops his punches, so Mayweather doesn't have to worry about a straight counter when he's coming in to land his straight rights and lead hooks.

Mayweather might win but he sure wouldnt win the crowd with his dull performance!!!

Agreed, it wouldn't be an exciting fight. I think everyone here acknowledges this. I just think most people agree that Floyd would stick-and-move with ease to a wide UD.

Mayweather doesnt hit as hard as Cotto.Margarito will walk through his ****ty punches!!!!

Of course he will, any Mayweather fan will tell you this. It's just that after Margarito walks through those punches, he won't find anything there because he's way to slow to catch Mayweather. Even if he lands a punch, he doesn't have 1 punch power.

I agree with this. I actually think Cotto would be a much tougher fight for Floyd.

[Brz_Pugilist]

The problem is that he wouldnt win those 8 rounds impressive.He is boring!!!!!!If i was Margarito, i would try and use the jab more.Mayweather is the smaller fighter.

[Murray]

Just outpunch him easily, big slow Mexican wouldn't get near him.

Im not so sure, Mayweather would be on defense alot and Marg would not run out of gas so it would be an interesting fight. Not to mention Floyd would most likely not stop Marg with a "check hook".

[Brz_Pugilist]

Another thing here, Margarito is not washed up.Gayweather needs to unretire and fight him now!!!!Gayweather is known to fight some washed up fighters!!!!!

[ALT-Assassin]

Mayweather would tap and run like the ***** that he is.Fight fans are happy he retired!!!He is a boring ass fighter!!!

Like Cotto didn't try to implement the Mayweather style but failed miserably at it?
