Its True Margarito is Good not Great

[boxaholic]

Lets be honest. Cotto had and might still have a chance to be great. Margarito is a oversized welterweight with limited boxing skills. What he lacks in skill he makes up with in work rate and his chin. He can wear you down but if you box him he will be beat. Margarito's last two losses have come against PWill and Santos. Pwill is Margarito's size and Santos. Don't get to emotionally attached TO mARGARITO he is a good fighter but definately not in the class of FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR.

All of the welterweight fighters are overrated. THey have all lost to eachother which means they all suck and none of them are great. Even though the WW division is the most talented and exciting right now, it is just filled with overrated boxers.

Is that what youre getting at?

He's never lost to someone smaller then him.. all his losses have come by men his size.
Yes, Mayweather is better.. but sometimes who has the better skill doesn't always win.. Last saturday proved this. After watching that ****.. I'm not so sure how the Mayweather v. Margarito fight would play out. Before that I was positive Mayweather would put on a clinic.

Its true he is good not great. He has no defensive skills any fighter that goes in the ring with him will know that they will gets lots of punches against him. He has a great chin and the heart of a warrior but the skills of an decent boxer.

NO my man. I appreciate fighters fighting tough opponents. I am just sick of everybody repeating over and over that Margarito is better than Sugar Shane or Floyd Mayweather. And there reasoning behind it is because neither Shane or Floyd wanted to fight him. He has 5 losses and until his fight Saturday no fan base.

No he won the fight because he had the balls and chin to take 2 punches to give 1. And like always Size does matter.

You also have guys saying Floyd "would" do this and he "would" do that.. the FACTS are he didn't so it irrelevant..
It's one in the same...

yeah you're right he floyd would put on a clinic.. for the 1st half of the fight against margarito, cotto was winning i'd say 4 or maybe 5 of the first 6 rounds and landing alot of clean punches.. he clearly had more handspeed and overall skill.. floyd has way more handspeed, skill, defense, and stamina than cotto so i think floyd would dominate margarito on points.. he obviously wouldnt be able to hurt margarito, but he would beat him unamious decision

Personnaly I am not a fan of Margarito, but I appreciate his performance. He beat a very game opponent.. A more talented, skilled, and versatile fighter. He deserves the credit.

All the top WW are worth a look. Particularly Cotto, Marg and PW.
