Margarito the Mexican Pavlik

Pavlik is a bigger punch, he destroys people with his punches.

I don't think so really. Pavlik's the better boxer and throws a lot more straight punches than Margarito.

Pavlik is better P4P.

Pavlik is a far better all around boxer IMO

I made a similar thread to this but it was more in defense of marg and pavlik

I have been hearing from many posters that the higher divisions in boxing are devoid of talent and the only reason Pavlik or Klitchko are champions is because of a bad era in boxing.These same people suggest all the talent is in the lower weight classes and becasue all these "pristine" athletes are playing other sports,the higher divisions lack the talent.It is a pitifull attempt to try to discredit other champions for the opponents that are put in front of them.

The point I am trying to make is that Margarito is not a technical boxer with a swift Jab or accuarate combinations but what he has is far greater than any of that.His will and chin allow him to execute his gameplan as well as his opponent.No one can argue that Cotto lacks in any fundementals that pretain to boxing but Margarito still beat him and that is why talent sometimes doesn't out weigh the determination to execute your game plan for twelve full rounds.If Margarito can earn the number spot in one of the most talented divisions Pavlik should be able to do the same.Kelly shares some of the same qualities of Margarito,his chin is not as good but he can walk through punches and execute his game when even coming off the canvas.I would argue that Pavlik is the better boxer of the both but it is there will that allows them to win against the better technical boxers.

These fighters deserve all the respect in the world as they put on a show and keep coming forward no matter what.They may not be a Leanord or a Hagler but who is?No era will be as good as the last and legends don't come often so why do people need to compare current boxers to them?In closing appreciate what is put in front of you because you never know when you are going to miss it.The way these fighters conduct themselves in the ring will shorten their career.

Pavlik is a better boxer than Margarito but Margarito is far far tougher.

Not even close, Tony has a chin.

Pavlik is only a one two puncher. Sometimes he'll mix in the left hook. Marg is better.

My 2 favorite fighters. I hope they never fight I wouldn't know who to root for.
