    btw do you like the new music I put over the Cuevas highlight? makes me laugh, but it also sort of gives me goosebumps at one point in it. seems appropriate.
    It could go either way in my opinion. Margarito is just too easy to hit though, as is Cuevas, but Cuevas would come out much faster than Margarito and would probably land his bombs early on to slow Margarito down.

    I still think that Margarito has a great chin and great conditioning but I did not like the way he acted under pressure.

      his vulnerability to the body was the most surprising thing to me. Cuevas may not have been the most accurate puncher, but Margarito is pretty easy to hit.

      the thing is that if Cuevas could not put some serious damage on Margarito early on, he would probebly lose. if he was able to drop some of those left hooks on Margarito's body and head early though, he would break him, and Cuevas was a pretty effective late round fighter himself as long as he had cracked his opponents earlier on.
