    OK so I've rewatched the fight acouple times now. Basically it's like this. Cotto played on the backfoot ala Floyd. He stuck on the ropes and countered effectively, ala Floyd. Cotto hits with POWER, unlike Floyd. Cotto is decently fast, Floyd abit faster but this doesn't matter. So now when Floyd attempts the exact same thing Cotto did, except with less power, brittle ***** hands, wtf will he do when Margarito hits anything he can on Floyd? He'll go to the body, the head, the side, uppercuts, everything. Floyd can block a decent amount, but not for a full 12 rounds. Muchless, the power Margarito brings is unlike anything he's felt for 12 rounds. I'm convinced Margarito would easily wear Floyd out just as he did Cotto except give Floyd less respect due to his lack of power.
    floyd doesn't gass like cotto. margarito can't beat floyd.

      different views are fine, but anybody thinking Margarito would do to Cotto what he did to Mayweather needs to explain why and he sure as hell didn't offer a reasonable explanation.

          He hasn't done anything to Mayweather.

              Hey, easy there killer. I'm just saying that if you can't respect someone else's opinion, how do you expect them to respect yours? It's kind of self-defeating really.

                the guy boxed him and had the stamina to go the distance.........

                mayweather is 10000000 times better than santos ....how do we know this.....

                because you dont even know who santos is ....now go google.......
                did you see the first santos fight...

                did you see a second santos fight... pure bombs and if you saw the end of the fight it was pretty much margartio comming on strong and in his favor...

                do you know that floyd would not exchange like a santos as to how to ward off margartio....

                if floyd threw 500 punches and connected with 70% of them, then that would just mean that floyd would be ahead on the scorecard when margartio would ko his azz.....

                  No, it isn't. You're acting like I'm not open-minded, which is what everyone does to their opposition when they're looking for support. You need to explain why you think Margarito could beat Floyd and maybe show a precedent or two since that's usually how we pick fights in boxing. You can't just say Margarito would beat Mayweather because Mayweather didn't fight him. You probably don't think Pryor would have beat Leonard, do you?

                      margartio is a bigger welter.. his natural weight... and he throws 100 punches a round or he can.... he aint gonna out box floyd ...floyd would outbox margartio but in order to do so he would have to put himself at some risk.... just like cotto.. you think margartio cared he was getting outboxed or tagged the first half of the fight... but he was (slowly but surely) landing punches .....

                      so now floyd can out box and pot shot margartio all he wants but he eventually has to come in between the line of fire unless you think he can shut out margatio..... floyd on the ropes doing the shoulder roll IS EXACTLY WHAT MARGARTIO WOULD LOVE FOR HIM TO DO.. unless you think floyd can shoulder roll while running around corner to corner...

                      so now you explain how floyd with his brittle hands is going to be able to hold off margartio... didnt floyd complain about baldomirs head.... margartio whole game plan is to throw punches in bunches and break you down...

                      he is not the same type of fighter as corrales and this is a weight class that he has yet to face a real welter with power....

                      if floyd fought margarito like he did dlh, how would floyd survive.... margartio dont fade and he can throw punches in bunches till the 12 round... he aint judah (mentally wack) or dlh (stamina wack)...

                      margartio gettin outboxed is a no brainer but floyd would have to deal with getting hit....evidently he didnt want to deal with that possiblity
