Does anyone think Margarito could ''Castillio'' Mayweather??

[DA1CATAS]

Look at the first 6 rounds and then ask yourself how would Floyd win the fight , its pretty easy to work out , Floyd will box like he did with Baldy for a boring Pts decision , he cant stand toe to toe with Margo but he can box brilliantly for 12 full rounds where Cotto could not , Cotto run out of steam because he is not as fluid and light footed as Floyd and as soon as that happens Margo is going to walk right through you which is what he did , Floyd can beat him but it will be by stealing the fight .

Same reason why i think cotto will win the rematch with margorito... he has to see how beautiful the first 6 rounds were....they were great.

I agree, Forrest in his prime just had the perfect timing and the ability to negate speed. His size advantage and reach would also cause Mayweather lots of problems.

did you notice how nobody but you seemed to even acknowledge this? i guess since forrest is american, nobody cares that i just bowed down to the viper.

Yeah, many people believe that Mayweather can not be beaten. I personally believe that he was already heading past his prime so the decision to retire was a good one. Young fighters like Cotto, Margarito ect would have gave him absolute hell.

on both sides of the equation, i mean, it seems like most people are looking to one of their national heroes to beat mayweather as opposed to anyone else. people would argue for years about margarito, cotto etc, but most threads about fellow americans beating him usually go unnoticed.

Yeah, thats the bad thing about the non stop boxing forum. There are biased fans that are haters and nut huggers. For example, one of the Klitschko fans said that David Haye has a poor resume, which is funny since his resume was better than Klitschko's when he only had 21 fights. Haye has already unified cruiserweight and could be heavyweight champion by next year. Wladimir didn't start fighting rank opponents until he had over 30 fights. I like boxingscene better but when i want to talk knowledge, i go to ESB for serious conversations.

Floyd is very smart and knows how to handle his opponents. He knows what to expect and doesn't go in the ring foolishly "thinking" he can do something he knows he cannot.

Cotto's thing is power, pressure and breaking down his opponent. Floyd knows he cannot overpower Margarito and will not try to. He knows he has to avoid those uppercuts, avoid getting caught at the end of punches, move a lot for 12 rounds...

and that is exactly what he would do to win a decision.

Good Point. I don't think Margarito is on Floyd's level. When Cotto boxed Tony he made it look easy. Floyd is a better boxer than Cotto and the reason Cotto lost is because he fought Margarito's fight. He didn't want to box and run he wanted to trade shots. TOny is just to big and his chin is why a welterweigh can't trade punches with him. BOXING now that is a different subject.
