WTF i think my boy margarito breaks a record for most shots missed. He would land to the body though.

I wonder if Marg would land enough body shots to slow down Whitaker enough to take over the fight?

Maybe, but it will probably be too late by then.

I doubt it. If Julio Cesar Chavez couldn't, I don't see Margarito doing it tbh.

Whitaker will make this look easy!

I pick Pea but it wouldn't be easy...AT ALL. In fact, Margarito would be the kind of guy that would cause serious problems for him because he is happy landing anywhere and everywhere. And the punches dont stop coming. I very much doubt he'd fall into Pea's head games.

Furthermore, Pea was not at his best at 147. He struggled there, particularly in later years although he easily handled McGirt in their rematch. Still, it's hard to pinpoint which Pea would show up and which Pea we're talking about because his prime sure as hell wasn't at welterweight.

Whitaker took Trinidad's assault for 12 rounds, and it's safe to say he wasnt in his prime at the time. Pernell takes this fight via UD. No doubt about it. He will make Margarito miss all night long.
